Minimally Invasive. Physician-Performed. Remarkable Results.
At SkinMD, we specialize in advanced, minimally invasive aesthetic treatments that help you look refreshed and confident—without the risks or downtime of traditional surgery. MyEllevate® is the newest innovation in jawline and neck contouring, and we’re proud to offer it exclusively from our highly trained physicians.
Whether performed alone or combined with FaceTite®, MyEllevate® delivers visible lift, definition, and long-lasting rejuvenation with just one treatment and minimal recovery time.
What Is MyEllevate?
MyEllevate is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive procedure designed to elevate sagging skin and restore youthful contours to the jawline and neck. Using a patented light-guided suture system, our expert SkinMD doctors place a supportive thread beneath the skin through small puncture sites—no incisions required.
The result: a more sculpted, youthful look that reduces jowling, tightens soft tissue, and defines the lower face—without general anesthesia or extended downtime.
