What procedure can tighten loose skin under eyes and help with smile lines? Can laser procedures h
Eye are treatment
Mar 11, 2022
Mar 11, 2022
Hello! You could use a combination of Botox and radio frequency microneedling to address the area around your eyes. Botox will help to relax the muscle forming the wrinkles and smooth out the lines. Radio frequency microneedling can help strengthen and tighten the skin to help reduce sagging and crepiness. Hope this helps!
What is the best laser for skin tightening on thin skin?
Laser treatments
Mar 11, 2022
Mar 11, 2022
Hi there! The Picosure laser is a great laser to use on the face to help with fine lines, skin laxity, and skin texture. The Picosure laser helps to stimulate collagen and elastin in the skin. Most people find that there is minimal discomfort with the treatment and little down time. You should expect to need multiple treatments depending on your expectations though. Hope this helps!
What can help to tighten and smooth my eye area?
Skin laxity around eyes
Mar 11, 2022
Mar 11, 2022
Hello there! Plasma pen could be used around the eye to help reduce the crepiness of the skin. Plasma pen is great for around the eyes because you can treat a larger area of the eyelid than you can with other treatments.
Would radio frequency or a filler be better for my skin and facial volume loss?
Facial Volume Loss
Mar 11, 2022
Mar 11, 2022
Hi there! It does look like you have some volume loss in the cheek and under eye area. Some cheek/under eye filler could help lid the face and potentially even take care of the nasolabial folds too. You could also consider doing radio frequency microneedling to help stimulate your own collagen and prevent further volume loss. Hope this helps!
Which non-surgical treatment is best for skin tightening on face and upper eyelids?
Sagging skin on the face
Mar 11, 2022
Mar 11, 2022
Hello there! There are many options for treating sagging skin on the face, and choosing the best option involves consulting with a provider who can see your skin and understand your expectations. Radio frequency microneedling and fillers can help lift the skin and improve skin laxity. For the upper eyelids, the plasma pen could be a good option for you. Hope this helps some!
Is there a less invasive way to treat loose skin only on neck?
Treatment options for Neck
Feb 18, 2022
Feb 18, 2022
Hello there! RF microneedling is a great option for treating the neck. It can help reduce fine lines, stimulate collagen, and tighten skin. Another option is the Picosure laser which can help with tightening and fine lines.
What can I use to tighten skin, even tone and remove blood vessels when I have melasma?
Laser for melasma
Feb 18, 2022
Feb 18, 2022
Hi there! The Picosure laser is great for treating melasma and requires little down time. The Picosure also helps with skin tightening and rejuvenation. Hope that helps!
