Loose skin after weight loss: what non-surgical treatments can do

Loose skin after weight loss at Skin & Laser Dubai
Quick answerAfter weight loss, including with weight-loss injections, skin on the face, arms and abdomen can look loose. Mild to moderate laxity responds well to radiofrequency-based treatments such as Iced RF (from AED 350), 5D Lipozero (from AED 600) and Morpheus8, and to HIFU for the face and neck. Very loose, hanging skin usually needs surgery.

Which treatment may be suitable for my concern?

Why skin loosens

Skin stretches to cover extra volume. When weight comes off quickly, collagen and elastin can't shrink back as fast, especially with age and sun damage. The face can also look hollow as fat pads shrink.

What treatments can do

Radiofrequency and ultrasound heat the deeper skin, tightening existing collagen and prompting new collagen. This firms and smooths skin gradually. It won't remove large folds of skin, but it makes a visible difference to crepey, softened areas.

A realistic plan

  • Keep your weight stable before starting
  • Face: HIFU for lift, Morpheus8 for texture
  • Body: a course of Iced RF or 5D Lipozero, with Morpheus8 for stretch marks
  • Protein, strength training and hydration support results

Questions people ask

Can I treat loose skin from weight-loss injections?

Yes. Once your weight is stable, tightening treatments can help mild to moderate laxity.

How many sessions will I need?

Usually a course of several sessions, confirmed at consultation.

When is surgery better?

When skin hangs in folds, surgery removes it; devices can't.
