Loose skin or cellulite? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and the photos. You have what a ton of people have and it is honestly a very hard problem. The heaviness of thighs and impact of gravity takes skin with marginal elasticity and the result is stacking above the knees. No surgery will really help (like a thigh lift). BodyTite is more powerful than Morpheus. I use them together. If you stand in the mirror and pull your skin up until it is tight, that is not what you will achieve. The hope would be less stacking and wrinkling. You have to see what the cost would be and if you are willing to see some improvement for that amount of money.
Best of Luck!

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Hello; there is a fluctuation in your leg skin; due to looseness, skin accumulation above the knee and the appearance of cellulite. In such cases, Laser Lipolysis, Bodytite or Renuvion J Plasma can be provided for skin tightening and improvement as an appearance. A leg lifting type of surgery; with skin excision also works to achieve a similar firmness; but a surgical scar will happen.

IMO and based on your photo, you would be a good candidate for Collagen Induction Therapy (Macroneedling). See the link below.

Best of luck !

From the photos it appears you have both mild to moderate skin laxity and cellulite. You can consider BodyTite for improvement for the skin laxity. This minimally invasive procedure uses RF technology just under and on top of the skin surface to tighten skin. Aveli treats cellulite by cutting the bands that cause the "cottage cheese" appearance. Neither procedure requires general anesthesia. You can learn more by clicking the video or visiting my website.
