Loose Skin or Skin Laxity Treatments Boston Northshore
When addressing loose skin and skin laxity, a personalized approach is essential. Our practice offers a wide range of advanced Laser based non-surgical treatments designed to tighten and rejuvenate the skin. These treatments include Laser-Coring with Ultraclear, Ultherapy, RF microneedling, Frax 1550 laser, PDO threads, and biostimulating fillers. Each treatment is tailored to the individual, considering factors such as age, underlying skin condition, medical history, loss of volume, pigmentation issues, and scars, whether from acne, surgery, or previous facelifts.
Customized Lasers for Loose Skin Boston
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for skin tightening. The effectiveness of each treatment depends on various factors, including the patient’s age, the severity of skin laxity, and the overall skin condition. Surgery may be necessary for those with very loose or extremely lax skin to achieve the best results, as non-surgical treatments have limitations. Hence it’s vital to have an in-person consultation with Dr. Shanthala.
In our practice, we take a comprehensive approach to treating loose skin, combining energy-based procedures like Laser-Coring, Ultherapy, and RF microneedling with non-energy-based treatments such as dermal fillers, biostimulators, PDO threads, cold microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and exosome therapy. These treatments work together to tighten and lift the skin, providing a more youthful appearance without the need for surgery.
Non-surgical skin tightening treatments may not deliver the dramatic results of surgical procedures, but they come with significantly fewer risks. Unlike surgical facelifts or neck lifts, non-surgical treatments do not involve the dangers associated with anesthesia or the complications that can arise from surgery. The results are more gradual and natural-looking, and the treatments typically have minimal downtime. Dr. Shanthala is highly experienced in Non surgical facelift or Liquid Facelift using Laser-Coring, PDO threads, Fillers and PRP.
Comprehensive Consultation and Evaluation for Skin Laxity Boston
Dr. Shanthala personally conducts thorough consultations with each patient, including detailed evaluations and discussions about their goals and expectations. During the consultation, we review before-and-after photos to help patients understand what can realistically be achieved. We emphasize that while non-surgical treatments can significantly improve skin laxity, they may not be sufficient for very loose skin that might require surgical intervention.
Our practice is proud to be one of the first few doctors to introduce Ultherapy in 2014 in MA. Dr. Shanthala has personally performed thousands of HIFU or Ultherapy procedures. Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to stimulate the deep structural support layers of the skin, resulting in lifted and tightened areas such as the eyebrows, neck, and chin. However Ultherapy had several limitations and failed to address other skin conditions such as Dyschromia, Rosacea, Scars, & Tissue Coring. In 2024, we introduced a novel technology to treat all skin issues including laxity, dyschromia, acne scars, with one laser called the UltraClear laser, Laser-Coring.
CO2RE is a fractional therapy CO2 laser for skin resurfacing. Your skin is treated with a matrix of laser light points that vary in intensity, depending on your skin type and desired treatment results. The result is a treatment that is fast, more comfortable and requires less downtime than traditional fully ablative resurfacing – enabling you to get back to your daily routine much quicker and performed by an MD. Now in 2024 Dr. Shanthala is proudly introducing the novel laser coring with Ultraclear cold laser which can be superior to any of the other energy based procedures she offers in her clinic.
