Treatments for Your 60s+

As collagen, elastin, and skin density continue to decline over time, your 60s and beyond are often when skin laxity, volume loss, thinning skin, wrinkles, and facial sagging become more advanced. Hormonal changes, environmental exposure, and the natural aging process may also contribute to changes in skin texture, energy levels, hair thinning, and overall facial structure. Many patients begin combining skin tightening treatments, facial rejuvenation procedures, hormone optimization therapies, and hair restoration treatments to support both appearance and overall wellness. Treatments such as upper blepharoplasty, FaceTite treatment, Sofwave treatment, CO2 skin resurfacing, PRP hair restoration, and hormone replacement therapy are commonly chosen to help improve firmness, facial contour, skin quality, and confidence while maintaining natural-looking results. At Amy Chow, MD, Medical Practice in Lee’s Summit, MO, treatments in your 60s+ focus on healthy aging, skin rejuvenation, facial support, wellness optimization, and long-term confidence.

Recommended Treatments for Your 60s+

  • Upper Blepharoplasty: Upper blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid lift surgery, is designed to remove excess skin and improve heaviness in the upper eyelids. This droopy eyelid treatment can help create a more refreshed, open, and rested appearance while improving visible hooding and upper eyelid laxity associated with aging.
  • FaceTite: FaceTite treatment uses radiofrequency-assisted technology beneath the skin to help improve facial contour, tighten loose skin, and reduce mild to moderate skin laxity. This minimally invasive skin tightening treatment is commonly used as a jowl tightening treatment to improve the lower face, jawline, and neck while supporting firmer-looking skin.
  • EndoLift: EndoLift is a minimally invasive laser treatment designed to help tighten skin, improve facial contours, and reduce mild to moderate skin laxity. The treatment works beneath the skin’s surface to support collagen remodeling and tissue tightening while helping refine areas such as the jawline, cheeks, and lower face.
  • Sofwave: Using advanced ultrasound skin tightening technology, Sofwave treatment helps stimulate collagen production to improve wrinkles, mild skin laxity, and crepey skin. Many patients choose this non-surgical skin lifting treatment to help tighten and refresh the face, neck, and brow area with little to no downtime.
  • CO2 Skin Resurfacing: CO2 skin resurfacing is an advanced laser treatment used to improve deeper wrinkles, rough texture, sun damage, skin laxity, and overall skin quality. This skin resurfacing treatment supports collagen remodeling and skin renewal to help create smoother, firmer, and more refined skin over time.
  • Hormone Replacement Therapy: Hormonal imbalances may contribute to fatigue, low energy, mood changes, sleep disturbances, and reduced overall wellness later in life. Hormone replacement therapy, including bioidentical hormones and personalized hormone optimization plans, can help support energy, vitality, and overall quality of life.
  • PRP Hair Restoration: PRP hair restoration uses platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood to help stimulate hair follicles and support healthier hair growth. This hair restoration treatment is commonly used as a hair thinning treatment to help improve hair density, scalp health, and overall hair quality over time.
