Profound RF Skin Tightening in Scottsdale
Non-Surgical Treatment for Loose Skin After Weight Loss Medications (Ozempic® & Zepbound®)
Weight loss with GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic® and Zepbound® can transform your health, but many patients notice an unwanted side effect—loose or sagging skin. This is especially common in the lower face, jawline, neck, arms, and abdomen after rapid weight reduction.
At Sensational Skin in Scottsdale, under the expert direction of Dr. S. Kent Brown, we offer Profound RF®, a cutting-edge radiofrequency microneedling treatment that tightens and firms skin without surgery.
Why Skin Can Look Loose After Weight Loss
When weight is lost quickly, the skin doesn’t always have time to contract and adapt to the new shape of your body. This can lead to:
- Sagging along the jawline or “Ozempic® face”
- Lax skin on the neck or under the chin
- Wrinkling or crepey skin on the arms, abdomen, or thighs
This happens because the collagen and elastin fibers in the skin lose their strength with age, volume change, or rapid fat loss.
How Profound RF Works
Profound RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate the skin’s natural healing response. By precisely heating the deeper dermal layers, Profound RF triggers the production of:
- New collagen for firmness
- Elastin for skin elasticity
- Hyaluronic acid for natural hydration
The result: tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin that continues to improve for months after treatment.
Benefits of Profound RF
- Non-surgical, no incisions
- Safe for multiple skin types and tones
- Can treat face, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, and more
- Long-lasting collagen stimulation
- Minimal downtime compared to surgery
Treatment Areas
Profound RF can be customized to improve loose skin in:
- Lower face & jawline
- Neck and under-chin
- Upper arms (“bat wings”)
- Abdomen after weight loss or pregnancy
- Inner thighs
- Above the knees
Combination Treatments for Better Results
At Sensational Skin, we often combine Profound RF with complementary treatments to maximize results:
- CoolTone® Muscle Building – While Profound RF tightens skin, CoolTone strengthens and tones underlying muscles in the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. This combination helps restore contour, firmness, and definition after weight loss.
- ZO® Medical Skincare – Clinical-grade skincare products by ZO® can enhance skin quality, improve texture, and brighten tone. When paired with Profound RF, ZO protocols help refine the surface while RF technology remodels deeper structures.
By combining therapies, Dr. Brown creates customized, layered treatment plans that address skin laxity, muscle tone, and skin quality all at once—delivering a more complete rejuvenation.
What to Expect
- Consultation: Dr. Brown and our team will review your goals and create a personalized plan.
- Treatment Day: Numbing is applied for comfort. A handheld Profound RF device delivers controlled energy beneath the skin.
- Aftercare: Expect temporary redness or swelling for a few days. Most patients resume normal routines quickly.
- Results: Noticeable firming develops over the following weeks, with maximum improvement in 3–6 months as new collagen matures.

Profound RF vs. Other Skin Tightening Options
When it comes to improving loose skin after weight loss, you have options. Here’s how Profound RF compares to other treatments:
| Treatment | Pros | Cons | Best For |
| Profound RF | Non-surgical; stimulates new collagen, elastin & hyaluronic acid; safe for most skin tones; single treatment can deliver lasting improvement | Temporary redness/swelling; results build gradually over 3–6 months | Patients wanting natural, long-lasting tightening without surgery |
| Surgical Skin Tightening (Neck/Body Lift) | Dramatic, immediate results; removes excess skin | Invasive surgery; 2–4 weeks downtime; higher risks & costs | Severe laxity or excess skin folds |
| Other RF or Ultrasound Devices | Non-invasive; little to no downtime | Typically require multiple sessions; less collagen stimulation compared to Profound RF | Mild to moderate laxity, patients wanting gradual changes |
| Laser Skin Resurfacing | Improves texture, fine lines, and pigmentation | More surface-level; limited tightening effect; downtime 7–10 days | Patients focused on skin tone & texture improvement |
At Sensational Skin Scottsdale, Profound RF is often combined with other solutions—such as CoolTone® muscle building, ZO® Medical skincare, or microneedling—to address not just skin laxity, but also texture, muscle tone, and overall contour.
