I'm 67 with a fair complexion, freckles, and active. Even though I play sports and do a treadmill the skin above the knees is unattractive and crepey. There's a bit on my shins too. What are the options to improve this? Thank you

Answer: Crepey Skin Thank you for your question. It would be easier to give you an answer with pictures or during a consultation but we have many patients do a series or morpheus8 for crepey skin on their knees and thighs. Morpheus helps to lift and smoothen the area.

Answer: Morpheus8 would be a great option to help tighten loose skin on the knees and thighs. 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. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon
