Non Surgical Procedure for Tightening Wrinkly Abdominal Skin?
I'm wondering if I would have good results with a non-surgical method of tightening wrinkly abdominal skin? I am a mother of four children all born through normal delivery.

However, I am left with this loose wrinkly skin above my belly button and it's even worse if I bend over or lean. I'm really not at all interested in a Tummy Tuck nor even a Mini tummy tuck; but I would like to know what other options might be out there that aren't as invasive and will still tighten the skin in that area?

I'm not aware of any non-surgical procedures for wrinkly abdominal skin
Congratulations on taking such good care of yourself, and working so hard. Your skin and even the deeper structures that the skin attaches to were stretched with the pregnancies, and they will likely not shrink any further. I am not aware of any procedure that will tighten the skin that is non-surgical. I would not advise lasers, IPL, Thermage, etc., and they would not fix all of the problems.
