Best option for non surgical lower face fat removal (mid 20s)?

Question

I have my masseter reduced but it didn't do much to reduce fat volume. I inquired about morpheus8 and most doctors here agreed that I can benefit from it. But the doctors I went to see in person refused because they don't think i'll benefit from it. What other options are available? Ultherapy is a bit expensive, so is thermage. Running out of options here...

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

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.

For the best result you may want to consider liposuction.  In certain circumstances this can be done in the office.  Morpheus8 is a great tool used to improve skin tone and texture.  You could also consider FaceTite.  See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.
