Morpheus8 with Forma plus for body areas. Would this be worth it?

Question

I hope someone can help me with this. I had Morpheus 8 for treatments for above my knees and the back of my thighs hoping it would help my saggy skin and some cellulite. Didn't seem any better. (2 treatments) each area. I've heard about Forma plus for body areas that should help better. I made some calls and was told that if you get Morpheus and a Forma plus treatment back to back you will have even better results. Would this be worth it?

Thank you for your question.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

The reason that the skin appears saggy as the person ages is purely because of loss of volume, both on the part of muscle and fat. Unfortunately almost all the radio frequency devices result in additional loss of fat under the skin. And even though after such treatments the person may look somewhat better in the long term they look much worse as the volume which is valuable fat is diminished considerably. The only device that has some potential at skin and tissue tightening at this point in time which also uses radio frequency is Renuvion also known as j-plasma. This procedure also has to be done by the hands of a very experienced individual under proper conditions to obtain a good result. You need to be evaluated in person. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery
