I had Ultherapy done with not a lot of results! Area is not bad, just bad enough that I don’t like it.
Answer: Best Treatments for Skin Laxity on Neck Unfortunately, it is very difficult to make a recommendation without at least a few photos. An in-person assessment to evaluate your skin’s condition and degree of laxity would be even better. That said, I can tell you microneedling is a type of collagen induction therapy that boosts collagen levels within the dermal structure. This process can lead to smoother, firmer skin over time. However, if your loose skin is substantial, you may not achieve satisfactory improvement without a surgical procedure. I encourage you to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can perform a comprehensive examination and discuss your concerns and goals in detail. Through this meeting, your surgeon can determine which customized treatment plan will meet your needs best.

Answer: Recommend using radio frequency such as Morpheus8 and venus viva can be beneficial to skin tightening Our office has many different treatments for scars depending on the depth of atrophy or hypertrophy. Scars require a combination approach using our HI DEF protocol which uses a combination of lasers, topical scar modulation, and RF treatments to pixelate scars, improve contour, reduce hyperpigmentation, and improve the visibility of the scars so that they are no longer visible in ambient light. Everyone has a unique pattern of scarring and we employ our HIDEF technique to improve texture, color, contour, and topography. We often use a combination of treatments that begin with a careful examination to examine the micro texturing of the acne scars. Atrophic scars and indented scars can benefit from injectable fillers such as Radiesse, Sculptra, and Restylane with or without subcision to remove tethered scars and atrophic depression. Hyper-redness in scars can be improved with V beam laser, Excel V, BBL, IPL, and Venus RF to improve the redness and reduce the visibility of deep scars. Fractional Thulium laser and clear & brilliant can also reduce the inflammation and redness of the scar when combined with topical therapy. Fractional lasers such as Fraxel, erbium, and CO2 laser can be combined with radio frequency and also fractional RF to improve textual issues and microtopography. Subcision and TCA cross are also used for deep ice pick scars and narrow valley scars in order to improve the micro texture. Above all, our combination approach with our clinical nurses and board-certified plastic surgeons can improve the quality of your skin by using at home Melarase creams combined with PRP treatments in our office to improve your skin quality and tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced team of experts in order to reduce your scarring.

Answer: Microneelding Skin Tightening Hi Kim, thanks for the question. Microneedling does stimulate collagen which will cause some tightening effects. But we do see a significantly greater amount of tightening with microneedling that has RF technology such as the Morpheus8.

Answer: Treatment for Loose Skin on the Neck Hello Kim. We don't offer Ultherapy for exactly the reason you mention. Most often it fails to deliver any benefit. We also don't offer microneedling for the same reason. Microneedling seems to be sold for every skin issue under the sun. While there may be some benefit for acne scars (mild texture improvement), it has no ability to help with loose skin on the neck. If loose skin is your issue, then a surgical necklift is your best option.

Answer: Neck Sagging/Fat - VASERlipo, FaceTite/AccuTite, Morpheus8/Fractora, Neck Lift/Platysmaplasty; Kybella, Thermage, Ultherapy With significant neck sagging you would need a facelift / neck lift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). At the same time, I would recommend lasers (Fraxel, CO2, or Erbium) and microneedling RF (Fractora, Morpheus8, Intensif) to improve the crepey skin and wrinkles. Overall, the neck can be treated with a combination approach:
