I'm 53. I have lost weight recently and I'm not happy with the loss of skin elasticity. I have never tried fillers and am reluctant to at my age.
Answer: Achieve smoother skin with fewer folds and wrinkles with dermal fillers Hello, thanks for posting your question and photos. Skin can lose elasticity and volume due to age or weight loss, forming marionette lines and nasolabial folds. Board-certified facial plastic surgeons can carefully inject dermal fillers into these folds, plumping up the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. By doing so, they can help to restore a more youthful and smoother appearance to the mouth area. Restylane Refyne and Defyne are excellent for facial folds around the nose and mouth, lasting up to 12 months with immediate results. RHA fillers are also an option, with four RHA formulations that can treat moderate folds and lines around the mouth. Juvéderm and Restylane fillers can also be used along the jawline to smooth wrinkles and create symmetrical contouring. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon and expert injector. They will be able to evaluate your concerns and treatment history, then determine the best course of action to achieve your desired results.

Answer: Laugh Lines / Nasolabial Folds - Fillers + Sculptra, Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, Radiofrequency, Peels, Skin Care 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

Answer: Fillers From your photos it appears you are a good candidate for fillers. This will help to replace the decreased volume from weight loss. You could consider Sculptra if you are looking for a longer lasting solution. You can use other treatments in conjunction with fillers such as FaceTite or Morpheus8 to address skin laxity and skin tone. See an expert injector near you to learn more. I've included a video on Sculptra that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Would you consider Morpheus 8 treatments? Based on your photos and on your age, you appear to have an issue with loss of skin elasticity, and a non-surgical treatment utilizing microneedling and radio frequency may be considered for you, depending on your examination. Skin tightening and wrinkle reduction may be seen after a series of treatments spaced at monthly intervals or longer. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Folds around my mouth and under my chin. One of the most effective treatments for lip wrinkles is laser resurfacing. These laser treatments are usually done with an erbium or carbon dioxide laser. The most effective and longest lasting treatment to turn back the clock around the mouth is the use of a fractional CO2 laser. For under your chin like other types of facial wrinkles, marionette lines are caused by natural collagen losses that occur with age. Collagen itself is a protein that naturally plumps up your skin. Gravity also plays a role in sagging skin around the chin, making marionette lines more noticeable. Neck creams work to prevent collagen breakdown and support collagen production. They often contain retinols, growth factors and antioxidants that are tested specifically for the skin of the neck.
