What non surgical treatment is best for ptosis and jowls?

Question

I’m interested in possibly getting ultherapy or fibroblasting done to improve drooping eyelids and jowls without having to undergo surgery, and wanted to know which procedure would be the most affective for these areas?

Don't waste money on ultherapy,  Go straight to Morpheus8 and Accutite for the best skin tightener available.  It is easy and quick and so worth it.

FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime.  Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

If you have a true ptosis, you would need to have a surgery to tighten one of the muscles which elevate the eyelid.  There is no external treatment that can do that for you. Radiofrequency and laser treatments can help to improve wrinkled skin around the eyes, but won't improve the ptosis.For jowling, Ulthera or Facetite are 2 good modalities to help decrease the fat and tighten the skin.
