Lower arms. How can I treat crepey and loose skin?

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.

I have seen some, not all, patients improve their crepy skin after having a series of ThermiSmooth external radiofrequency non painful treatments or Infini microneedling with RF especially when Alastin Restorative cream is used starting before and continued through and after the treatments. I have not seen the cream alone help but it seems to make the radiofrequency treatments work better.The information provided in Dr. Shelton's answer is for educational purposes only and is not intended to constitute medical advice.  The information provided should not be relied upon as a substitute for consultations with a qualified health professional who may be familiar with your individual medical needs. 

Fraxel® laser is great for smoothing crepe skin all over the face and body, while Viora® radiofrequency treatments are great for tightening loose skin.
