Is Ultherapy the right procedure for my nasolabial folds and sagging around my eyes? (photos)

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.

I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting, and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello @katenaude thank you for your question and showing your pictures. The best way to go is to have a consultation for a protocol made for your skin and goal look. A combine treatment with the use of botox for fine lines and avoid the contraction of the muscle that forms the expressions lines. I suggest de use of derma fillers for nasogenian folds and apply some in the area of the cheeks. The use Ultherapy a technology that prevents facial and body flaccidity. It produce a retraction of the skin so that it remains firm against the tissue and optimizes the production of collagen; in addition this treatment produces a greater hydration improving the quality and tone of the skin.Best wishes!
