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!
