Ultherapy for double chin and chubby cheeks? (Photo)

Question

Hello I have double chin and chubby cheeks which I can never seem to get rid of no matter how much weight I lose. I have a very round face. don’t want any surgery but I want to reduce the size of them without it — I was looking at Ultherapy and seeing a con about it is losing facial fat. Is it suitable for me? I am 28 yrs. I am also looking into Shurink. Is this a better laser? I had Aqualyx before and I felt like it just made it bigger. I’ve done InMode too.

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.
