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
Thank you for your question! We recommend Ultherapy to help tighten the skin. Ultherapy uses heat energy to stimulate the skin to create new collagen and tighten. This can also be combined with a diluted filler called Radiesse for an improved skin quality as well. We do recommend that you use Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar two weeks before and after your treatment for an improved and accelerated result!
Hello, another option to consider is radiofrequency microneedling (eg Lutronic Genius) and/or injections of hyper-dilute Radiesse. These two treatments both stimulate collagen production by different mechanisms. A series of treatments are needed but they are usually well tolerated with minimal downtime. Good luck!
Hello Melchip:We love #Ultherapy for tightening the skin and fascia of the chest and upper breast tissues. This is a one-time treatment with Microfocused ultrasound with visualization. Focused ultrasound energy is directed at one or more of 3 different depths, to the fascia, deep dermis, or upper dermis, causing contraction of fascia and remodeling of the skin, resulting in a thicker dermis with decreases in crepey, wrinkled skin, and tighter fascia with lifting of the skin. #ThermiTight can be used to lift the breasts as well, but cannot be used over the mid chest.I do hope this is helpful to you.Sheryl Clark MD FAAD
When considering skin tightening treatments on tattooed arms, it's essential to understand the potential impact on the tattoos. Treatments like radiofrequency (RF), microneedling with RF, and non-ablative lasers are generally safe and less likely to affect the tattoo ink.
