If you’ve noticed your skin isn’t quite as firm as it once was—maybe along the jawline, neck, above the knees, or around the belly button—you’re not alone. Skin laxity is one of the most common concerns we hear about at Gilded Palm, and it’s also one of the trickiest to treat.

Here’s the honest truth: the only way to guarantee tight skin is surgery. Think facelift, neck lift, tummy tuck. But even those procedures don’t actually make your skin younger—they just remove the extra and pull it tight. That’s where non-surgical treatments come in: with radiofrequency (RF) and laser treatments, we’re not just stretching old skin—we’re rebuilding it to be healthier, stronger, and more resilient.

At Gilded Palm, we offer a few powerful tools for treating lax skin, depending on where you're seeing changes:

Morpheus8Face, Body and V
‍This is one of our go-to treatments for tightening and smoothing skin. It uses radiofrequency and microneedling to stimulate deep collagen remodeling. It works especially well on the jawline, neck, abdomen, arms, intimate areas and even above the knees. Most people see gradual improvement in firmness and texture over a series of treatments.

Forma and FormaV
‍Forma is a non-invasive RF treatment that gently heats the tissue to stimulate collagen. It’s great for the face, neck, and even intimate areas (hello, FormaV!). It feels a bit like a warm massage—and for some clients, it’s a regular part of their monthly maintenance routine.

Sciton ProFractional and TRL Lasers
‍When paired strategically with RF treatments, lasers like ProFractional and TRL can resurface the skin, improve texture, and support long-term firmness by increasing dermal density. These treatments work best when planned as part of a custom skin health strategy.

Let’s be real: resultsvary because everyone’s skin is different. But with the right treatment plan,realistic expectations, and consistency (especially if you start before laxity sets in),you give your skin the best chance to age beautifully—no scalpels required!
