We have two methods for treating festoons: 

Laser Resurfacing: Laser skin resurfacing, utilizing sophisticated Erbium: Yag and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) lasers, has proven to be a preferred option for the treatment of festoons. This groundbreaking procedure takes advantage of creating a wound in the area of the festoon and coaxing the skin to heal this area with better quality skin.​
​
By purposefully injuring the skin with just the right amount of injury, the skin can heal without any problems with scarring and, in fact, with better quality skin. 

AGNES RF Macro-needling: AGNES technology allows us to use a needle to directly target the festoon and uses radio-frequency to destroy the fat cells creating the festoon. AGNES is safe on all skin types and does require a consultation prior to treatment. It is typical that multiple treatments are necessary for best results.
