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
Based on the photos I’ve seen, you are a good candidate for procedures like Deep Plane Facelift, Neck Lift, and fat grafting. The Deep Plane Facelift is an effective option to address sagging in the lower face and jawline, providing great results for sagging caused by reduced skin elasticity and gravity over time. The Neck Lift is ideal for correcting double chin and sagging in the neck area. Additionally, fat grafting can add volume to your face, especially filling in hollows in the jawline and lower face. These procedures, when combined, can provide both tightening and volume restoration, giving you a youthful and fuller appearance. That being said, to determine the best option for you, a physical examination will be necessary to make a definitive decision.
Thank you for your photographs. Your overall facial shape and skin quality look good. You have early jowl formation and platysma banding in your neck. If your overall health is excellent, chances are your skin quality is very good at 42. For the best result, and the longest lasting result, a mini facelift with a plication of your SMAS layer in a vertical/posterior position should give you excellent improvement in your midface volume, straighten and sharpen your jawline and smooth your neck. This can be performed under local anesthesia with some sedation and the recovery is fast.
You have the option of less invasive skin tightening with Sofwave which is an Ultrasound based device. It helps with tightening the jowls and neck. There is no downtime. The other option is to do a mini facelift. RegardsDr. J
If you wish to go nonsurgical, you should consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert to discuss the use of various robust HA fillers to achieve your goals. For example, consider the use of a robust, HA lifting filler cheek augmentation to lift the cheeks, create a more feminine Ogee Curve, oval, heart-shaped face; consider a robust HA contouring filler for enhancing the lower third of the face and straightening and defining the jawline (which, in itself, would secondarily help to tighten the submental region).Both approaches can be performed in experienced hands in about thirty minutes, with immediate results and little to no significant post-treatment downtime. Exercise a great deal of buyer beware caution when being hawked this or that expensive, supposedly "next big thing" laser or RF gizmo, since the hard science to support the use of these devices lags well behind the heavy marketing and social media hype to promote them. Hope this helps and best of luck.
Your major problem seem to be a neck, based on these photos. In that case, a lower face/neck lift may be the best option. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial rejuvenation is recommended. Good luck.
You would benefit from a face lift to tighten up the lower face and neck. You have wrinkles in front of the ear. A mini face lift can take care of some of this skin from the ear region but will not be effective in the neck.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
Based on your photographs, you have significant laxity of the skin in your neck, you have jowls and loose and elastic muscles in the neck. A lower face and neck lift procedure can accomplish improvement to rejuvenate your neck and face. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 2 1/2 hours. The goal is to tighten loose facial and neck skin, tighten loose facial and neck muscles, lift the jowls and remove any fat deposits in the neck with liposuction.
