I'm looking into skin tightening for my thighs, arms, and abdomen. Also, face and neck at some point. I've been reading about Bodytite, Morpheus8, J-plasma/Renuvion, Ultherapy, Body-'skin-/facetite, vaser, thermage, etc etc etc. There are so many! Which is most effective for the body (even if it's something I haven't mentioned)? ?And which is most effective for the face? I do not need much, if any, liposuction.

Answer: #skintightening options Hi customframes, The options for skin tightening address different levels of tightening with different mechanisms. Body/face tite and Renuvion (subdermal) are inserted under the skin. Body/face tite works on the deeper skin and Renuvion contracts the connective tissue that normally connects the skin to underlying tissues. Body/face tite do not make a change on crepe (skin surface) wrinkling-morpheus8 and Renuvion facial renewal works on the surface to tighten. Once you have an in-person consultation, your plastic surgeon will be able to help figure out which is best for what you need and/or trying to achieve. There are different types of anesthetics for the different treatments and different down times/recovery considerations also. Good luck!

Answer: Something Power Assisted In general, if you ask 10 plastic surgeons this question you will get 10 different answers. All of the above mentioned modalities are effective when utilized appropriately. Each one applies extra energy to skin, with or without liposuction, in order to stimulate the elastin fibers to contract and tighten. The most important thing is that you are seeking care from a board certified plastic surgeon who can appropriately manage your pre and postoperative care and can choose the appropriate modality for you that they are also comfortable with.
