Non-Surgical Options for Skin Tightening During Massive Weight Loss

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 "unhealthy" loss of weight is not the best way to lose, and I worry about your nutrition and your ability absorb vitamins properly esp. if you have a colon condition. Medications prescribed to you can also affect your immune system.
I would recommend getting a handle on treating your condition ASAP so your weight loss is more manageable and healthy.
Of all the groups of patients who are candidates for non-surgical skin tightening, I would have to say that weight loss patients are proably the last in line.
The non-surgical alternatives provide at best a mild effect.
