Question

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.

An in person evaluation is always best, but from your photo it appears you have skin laxity around the knees.  In order to improve this you will likely need a surgical procedure to remove the excess skin.  It is doubtful that you'll have significant improvement with non surgical interventions.

There are several treatments that can be used to minimize wrinkles and tighten the skin on the knees. Some options include:
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections: PRP is a concentration of platelets from the patient's own blood that is injected into the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture and elasticity.
Infini microneedling with radiofrequency (RF): This treatment uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which prompts the body to produce collagen and elastin. The RF energy helps to tighten the skin and improve its texture and elasticity.
Ultherapy: This non-invasive treatment uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. It can be used to improve the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin on the knees.
Thermage RF: This treatment uses RF energy to heat the deep layers of the skin and stimulate collagen production, which helps to tighten and smooth the skin.
It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment for your individual needs and goals. They can help you understand the benefits and potential risks of each treatment option and recommend the best course of action for you.
