The lower face tends to change slowly, and most people notice it in photographs before they notice it in the mirror. Start with what you see and when you started seeing it. That is more useful than naming a treatment.

Treatments to discuss.
Ask what this involves at the studio, what it is intended to address and where its limits are for your degree of laxity.
A device-based option to discuss for skin tightening, including the number of sessions typically involved.
Combines needling with radiofrequency. Review the risks and recovery carefully before considering it.
Realistic expectations.
Improvement is gradual
Results are not permanent
Not everyone is a candidate
You don’t have to choose a treatment on your own.
Is this an alternative to a facelift?
No. The Non-Surgical Face Lift on our menu addresses skin quality and some tightening. It does not reposition tissue the way surgery does, and the difference in what they can achieve is significant.
How many sessions would I need?
That depends on the option and on your skin. RF Skin Tightening and RF Microneedling + LED are planned differently. Ask for the expected number of sessions and the total cost before starting, not after the first one.
How long does it last?
Skin keeps changing, so any improvement is temporary. Ask what maintenance would look like so you can judge the real cost.
Can I treat my jawline but not my neck?
You can, but it may look uneven. If both concern you, say so, and the plan can account for the whole area.
