Trying to choose a non surgical skin tightening procedure for face and neck. Does skin thickness really matter?

January 26, 2025
Asked By:jeng75 in New York, New York

I’ve had one session of Morpheus 8 with no appreciable results. Willing to do more sessions as I know it’s not a “one and done” type procedure, but wondering if a different method would be better. There are so many options, Ultherapy and Sofwave both seem great. I’ve seen some providers suggest you need to know your skin thickness before choosing. Mid 40’s would love to address jowling and brow drooping.
