Best treatment for skin tightening?

Question

Hello -- I had etching + fat transfer to my glutes, but my abs and the lower parts of my glutes have lost elasticity and sag a little. I'm researching skin tightening procedures and would really like to get some advice. What is better between Renuvion, Cooltone and Body Tite? Or is there something else that would give me the best results? Thank you very much in advance for your help and time.

An exam is recommended for individual recommendations.  BodyTite is a great minimally invasive tool which uses RF technology both above and just under the skin to provide skin tightening.  No general anesthesia is required.  Depending on the laxity of your skin this may be a good option for you.  I've included a video on this treatment that I hope you find helpful.

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Dear Kewl Katt,
Great question of the day.
Renuvion works better than lasers, body tight or other forms of ultrasound.
However, Renuvion in combination with Vaser liposculpting are the best two combination same procedure technologies for skin tightening. The next level would be a tummy tuck.
