30s, crepey skin under chin after I lost weight fast - what can help? (Photos)

Question

Lost weight fast and now I have a bit of crepey skin under chin When I turn my head. When I am not turning my head or anything it’s fine but I turn my head it’s gross… literally caught it from a self tape I just did yesterday. What procedures could help me with this ? I am in my 30’s I lost 31 pounds in a little over a month and attribute this loose under chin skin to that. My metabolism eats fillers and Botox so fast. Very fast. So what kind of laser oe thing is there to help with this ? Thanks

Morpheus8 provides both skin tightening and skin resurfacing improvements. The technology uses radiofrequency deep subdermal heating to effectively tighten skin and remodel the superficial texture, such as scarring and enlarged pores. Combining Morpheus8 with lasers can give both complexion and laxity improvements in one treatment, so it's an ideal add-on treatment for those who care about preventative sagging or scarring improvements. You can also add this on to liposuction or internal heating to get more improvement in the areas treated.  I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to develop a treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for you photos. You would be a great candidate for Facetite but even a better one for morpheus8 treatments due to the laxity of your skin and not having much fat tissue in the area of concern. You could also do Accutite followed by morpheus8 treatments to help give you a great jaw line and tightening under the chin area. Good luck !

Thank you for your question and pictures! You would an excellent candidate for Morpheus8. Morpheus8 is a micro-needling treatment that utilizes radio frequency to tighten and lift the skin. I recommend that you start with a package of 3 treatments and then we can re-evaluate after if you need more. It is best to schedule an in office consultation with your provider of choice. Best of luck!
