Ultherapy vs CO2 Laser for tech neck and skin laxity? (photos)

Question

Hi! What treatment(s) would be best for “tech neck” — particularly concerned about horizontal bands across my neck (necklace lines from looking down so much, I guess!) and also neck skin laxity. Which non-surgical treatment would be best for me to target neck lines and wrinkles, crepiness and laxity? I’m looking for the most effective, dramatic and long lasting results. Thank you!! -Kate (early 30s)

Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. As we age, collagen breaks down, resulting in loss of skin strength and elasticity. For tissue tightening, Ultherapy is ideal for the lower face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Morpheus8 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.

"Injecting soft fillers like Belotero in this area can reduce lines, wrinkles and folds as well as improve skin texture with long-term collagen production. Fillers are being used more frequently to contour and lift rather than solely line fill. Of course, fillers are best used in combination with lasers and microneedling with PRP to get the optimal outcome.

I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to create an individualized treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer"
