I'm looking to address loose skin on the abdomen and general crepiness of the skin there and on the buttocks. My derm suggested Sculptra and microneedling, but I'm curious if other treatments made for tightening (ultrasound, radiofrequency) would be better. I'm 38 yo and thin so just want to focus on skin texture and elasticity, not fat reduction.
Answer: Considering options There are a few options to consider based on the degree of skin laxity and texture issues that concern you. BodyTite is a minimally invasive treatment that uses RF technology both on the surface and just underneath the skin to tighten the tissues. No general anesthesia is required. It can be combined with Morpheus8 treatments to enhance results. See my website or an experienced provider near you to learn more.

Answer: Morpheus8 can help reduce creepiness of the skin to give a more defined look 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.

Answer: Skin cepiness and laxity Hi and thank you for your question. I would highly recommend thermage for collagen building. It addresses the exact concerns you are inquiring about such as crepiness and laxity. 80-90% see visible results in a few months as it builds collagen that you get to keep as you age. It is a non-invasive procedure that uses radio frequency. It can be coupled with sculptra injections for even better results!
