Any procedures under £500 that actually help with saggy face?

Early 40s and significant weightloss (not ozempic btw)

Feeling quite saggy around the mouth/jowls.

Am scared of filler (also have autoimmune issues so not sure if I would get along with a foreign body injection)

Always said I wouldn't get anything done but feeling increasingly fed up with the mirror.

Sculptra is a collagen based bio stimulator. It’s used to plump out the skin.

Small amount of cheek filler, done properly will lift and tighten your jaw line. Feels like you have massive cheek bones for about 4 days, but results are worth. I just get 0.5 in each cheek.

Do you use the HA as a glider? Or after?

I use it after, I use a numbing gel on my face first then do the treatment then add a lot of HA and lie down for 10 mins. It has done wonders!

You can't go wrong with La Roche Posay in my experience, reasonably priced too.

So @faithfultoGeorgeMichaelthe needles are just to allow the serum to get to the deeper layers of skin? But what about infection risks?

Microcurrent devices also help with this. I've got the Foreo Bear, have also heard great things about the ZIIP Halo.

I find his videos very informative

@BeEagerRubyBird I have a ziip halo. It's a nice device if you're looking for a bit of a glow, but it's not going to yield much more than that.

The cartridges are sterile and I wash my hands and face before. My DB is obsessive and uses alcohol to sterilse everything but this is a home device with low infection risk. The salon devices have deeper penetration and more risk.
