Before jumping into the use of all kinds of expensive, supposedly "next big thing" bells and whistles devices, such as RF devices, one might be wise to investigate the use of HA fillers for a nonsurgical neck rejuvenation. Botox can be helpful for diminishing the vertical neck cords related to muscular movement of the neck muscle, the platysma. An appropriate robust HA filler injected properly can help to diminish the static (at-rest) component to these cords. HA skin boosters can help to hydrate and improve the quality of the neck skin between the treated cords, and a low viscosity, cohesive HA filler can elevate and smooth static "horizontal necklace lines," if this is of concern. And, what's really nice is that in experienced hands all of the above if needed can be performed in a twenty minute session in . Even the jawline jowls can be straightened and defined, if necessary, using an appropriate HA filler. So, before embarking expensive treatments with all the machines that are hawked on Dr. YouTube (whose hard science to support their use unfortunately lags woefully behind the heavy marketing to promote them), it would be prudent to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist. Hope this helps and best of luck.
Thanks for your question and the photos you provided. At 52, it looks like you have maintained your skin well over the years. Instead of Facetite/Renuvion, I would only do Morpheus 8 Body to your face, chin and neck. The needles/pins go 8 mm deep and can burn your jowl fat and also tighten skin.There is no great treatment for neck bands, but Morpheus 8 Body may be able to help blend your bands. Be sure you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon! Good luck
HI and thank you for your question. I believe the combination of doing FaceTite followed by Morpheus treatments on both full face and neck, will give you the facelift result you are looking for. FaceTite will deliver dramatic improvement to your skin laxity, utilizing minimally invasive radiofrequency energy to melt fat and contour your skin.Morpheus will also use radiofrequency energy to remodel and rebuild your collagen along with a matrix of micro pins to renew the deeper layers of the skin.Consult with your physician to come up with a proper treatment plan for you.
FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
An in person evaluation is best, but from the photos it appears you are a good candidate for FaceTite with Morpheus8. FaceTite uses RF technology to tighten skin and rejuvenate contours. It is minimally invasive with no general anesthesia required. Morpheus8 treatments can be added to optimize results. You will probably benefit from filler to complete the look.
Hello Tammi,Though Dr. Handal would have to assess in person to make an accurate recommendation, you do look like a good candidate for Morpheus.Morpheus stimulates the collagen production in your skin, which will help with the appearance of Jowls, and fine lines.
For treatment of just the neck bands, you can always try Botox first to see if that would address your issues. If Botox doesn't address your issues, a lower face and neck lift can accomplish tightening those bands and Accomplish tightening the inelastic skin in the neck as well. Noninvasive treatments simply won't help much
Thank you for your question. Your chin neck angle is too wide. The jawline line from the cheeks to the neck is subtle. Only fat removal is not enough. Fat should be removed and the skin should be tightened as well. I do not think you will benefit from medical applications and devices. For you, I...
FaceTite is an option for you to consider for improvement. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate laxity and are not quite ready to consider a surgical face and neck lift. FaceTite is a minimally invasive procedure that uses RF technology to tighten skin. The procedure is performed in the...
Thanks for your question and photos you provided. It sounds like you have a great relationship with your plastic surgeon. You were able to describe in office how you felt and they were able to reach out to you discussing a revision. I would take their recommendation and a combination of 1)...
