Is 30 years old too young for Profound RF if you're dealing with facial skin laxity from weight loss?

Question

Although it's been over a year since I lost weight, I've noticed that my face seems saggier than before. I'm only 30 and know that I would look better if it were slightly tighter. Am I too young for this type of procedure?

Hi Asymmetrical U,It is difficult to answer your question without a photo or better yet an in person examination.  For the most part, if you do have the "S" word skin (sagging) then either Profound or Ultherapy are great safe and effective device non-surgical treatments to address your concerns.  You should get a fantastic result since you are young and your healing response with be boosted.  As with any aesthetic treatment choosing your treating physician is essential for excellent results.  Choose your treating physician based on their judgement, skill, experience, knowledge, and most importantly their natural artistic vision.  Good luck and be well.

Thank you for your question.  It would depend upon the degree of laxity.  I would recommend a face to face consultation.  During the visit one could assess the degree of laxity and be able to predict the amount of improvement possible.  Good luck.

Hi, and thank you for your question. More so than your age, the amount of skin laxity you’re dealing with, coupled with the quality and condition of your skin, will be determining factors as to whether ProFound RF could be the best solution for you. Schedule an in-person evaluation with a trained professional for a detailed evaluation of your skin and your specific goals. Your age shouldn’t be much of a factor here. I hope this is helpful.
