I only have 2 wrinkles around the mouth and 1-2 on forehead. What I do have is facial sagging especially around the nasolabial fold. What is best for lifting? Are there any creams that work?
Answer: Increasing collagen Building collagen has been most effective through laser resurfacing, in my opinion. These lasers can get you the beautiful skin that you desire, but you may need several treatments depending upon how much downtime you can tolerate.

Answer: Morpheus8 is a great option for skin tightening using a combination of microneedling and radio frequency 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. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Ultherapy Best for Facial Skin Tightening
Thank you for your question. I would suggest Ultherapy for facial skin tightening. Ultherapy deposits focused ultrasound energy below the surface of the skin to stimulate the body’s creation of new collagen. As a result, skin will actually begin to lift and tone over time. Collagen is a natural protein that gives skin its youthfulness by keeping it firmed, toned and elastic. Plus, the treatment is completely non-invasive and does not require downtime. I have seen excellent results with the treatment.

Answer: Non-surgical Treatment You can do plenty of things to help you with your expression lines, but first of all, we must talk about why these lines appear; one of these reasons is sun exposure that can gradually cause loss of collagen and elasticity; constant facial expressions is another reason. I recommend drinking 1lt of water daily, a good sunscreen above 30, regular facials with microdermabrasion, microneedling with platelets rich plasma, and a combination of CO2 laser and erbium laser. I suggest that your forehead lines get botulinum toxin like Botox or Dysport to relax your muscles, giving you a more relaxed look. For your lower face and bars around the mouth, I suggest dermal fillers such as Restylane to fill in each line and hydrate the skin from giving you that natural refreshed look.
