58, 40 pound weight loss. Best non-surgical procedure for neck and jowls? (Photos)

Unlike other tightening treatments, Ultherapy only requires a single treatment every one to two years and has long-term effects in skin stimulation and collagen production. Ultherapy is ideal for men and women who are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and desire a noticeable and long-term skin tightening treatment without the complications and risks of more invasive surgical procedures. Ultherapy can be combined with dermal fillers, Botox treatments, chemical peels, skin tightening lasers, and skin facials. Our plastic surgery and cosmetic center in Santa Monica offers Ultherapy as a complement to other skin treatments and cosmetic rejuvenation procedures.

The first question is whether you really only want non-surgical options. You should know upfront that non-surgical options will NOT 100% treat your concerns. If you are okay with that, then what I would consider for you (in no specific order):
-neurotoxin/botox to the neck to get the platysmal banding (the vertical creases) and probably also to your lower face to give you a bit of a lift
-filler to the chin/jawline area to help with the jowling

Congratulations on the weight loss journey!  Since you are trying to avoid surgery, the best options are usually a combination of radiofrequency and laser. Devices such as the Venus Freeze (6 weekly treatments), the Viva MD (usually 3-4 monthly treatments and UltraClear Laser (3-4 treatments every 4-6 weeks) deliver the best results. The combination of RF with RF microneedling and laser work synergistically to provide natural looking results. Not all technologies are created equal though and this is something to consider.  For example, I would not recommend Morpheus 8 or Ultherapy in your particular case. Another important thing to remember when embarking on non or minimally invasive skin tightening options is that results take time - 6 to 9 months or longer for final results. The treatment itself works by waking up your skin’s own repair system - it tells your body to make fresh collagen and elastin. And that’s fantastic, because it’s natural and keeps your skin structure healthier long-term.  But we are at the mercy of human physiology. Collagen and elastin don’t pop up overnight. They remodel slowly, over weeks to months. Think of it like planting seeds - you can water and fertilize, but you can’t make the plant grow faster than biology allows. So results are real, but they’re gradual. There are many options to consider and I always recommend you speak with your physician to curate a treatment plan that works best for you, your lifestyle, and your desired goals. Best of luck on your self improvement journey!
