Physician-guided treatments designed to improve skin firmness and support collagen renewal at PRFCT.
Loose or sagging skin can develop after significant weight loss, hormonal changes, or natural aging. These changes often occur as collagen and elastin production decline, leading to reduced firmness and elasticity. At PRFCT, loose skin treatments focus on supporting the skin’s structural foundation through non-surgical technologies and medical evaluation rather than surface-level solutions.
What Causes Loose Skin?
Loose skin develops when the underlying support structures of the skin weaken or when volume changes faster than the skin can adapt.
Common contributing factors include:
- Significant or rapid weight loss
- Age-related collagen and elastin decline
- Hormonal changes
- Loss of muscle mass and skin density
- Reduced skin hydration and barrier strength
How PRFCT Treats Loose Skin?
Our physician-led team focuses on treatments that stimulate collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and support overall skin health. Treatment plans are customized based on skin quality, treatment area, weight history, and long-term goals.
Radiofrequency Microneedling (RFM)
Radiofrequency Microneedling utilizes needles similar to a traditional device, but in this case the needles are a delivery service for radiofrequency waves. If your goals have to do with more superficial concerns regular microneedling may do the job. If instead your goals are deeper in the skin Radiofrequency Microneedling will likely be the more effective option.

Benefits are far reaching and can lead to an improved overall well-being and improvement in muscle mass as well. Pellets are slightly larger than a grain of rice, and are easily placed with only local anesthesia in the buttock area. Pellets release a steady, low dose of testosterone over several months mimicking the body’s natural hormone production.
