Will J-Plasma or HIFU work for the loose skin on my abdomen from major weight loss? (photos)

Question

Loose skin due to major weight loss. No pregnancy. A tummy tuck is not preferred so I am exploring any other options.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

In truth, non-surgical options give only mild improvement compared to surgical lifting. Skin tightening can be done with a combination of Vanquish, truSculpt iD, Venus Legacy, Exilis, Cellutone/Zwave. However, for best results, a Tummy Tuck procedure can be combined with a high definition procedure at the same time. For best results, I recommend VASER HI-DEF Liposuction with ThermiRF, Renuvion, InMode BodyTite and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi-definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, you appear to demonstrate significant abdominal skin laxity associated with significant stretch marks, areas of skin where elastic fiber rupture has occurred, resulting in permanent skin overstretching. I fear that the extent of the overstretching exceeds the ability of non-surgical modalities. You appear to represent a candidate for abdominoplasty.Best wishes...
