Saggy, Crepey Skin – Maybe a Virtual Consult with Us?

Dr. Irwin
December 4, 2023
What is the best treatment for the money to tighten saggy creepy skin, firm and lift? What’s best for texture and color? I am 55 year old who did 2nd degree sunlamp burn in high -school. Smoker off and on. I was considering another Profound treatment an upper eye surgery co2 and threads. Honestly I’m wondering if I should just save my money and do a face/neck lift? It’s very hard because each provider advises differently.

It’s so confusing for consumers now with a lot of marketing, a huge range of technology to choose from, and often conflicting opinions from providers in your area who may be excellent….or not.

Why Scheduling a Virtual, Telehealth Consult with Me Might Be Your Most Cost Effective Choice:

  • It’s difficult to give advice in these more complex situations without seeing exactly what you’re referring to. I’ve learned that we may think we’re talking about the same things, but often we have something different in our minds.
  • I can be a more neutral party since, other than the consult fee, I have no financial interest
  • It’s easier for me to assess general health risks to help you weigh them. For example, one of my patients is a long time diabetic who really would get the best result for her particular problem with plastic surgery, but her risk of complications is so much higher that all her docs have recommended no surgery; except the plastic surgeon. 🙂
  • I can help you evaluate a particular doctor’s credentials.
  • We do charge for this… I think it’s $460, but please ask our front desk. 🙂

If the goal is to get you the best result, with the least risk, with a good cost benefit analysis along with it, maybe consider the above.

 

I Hope this Helps,

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
