I BBL done and Lipo in my abdomen. The skin is very loose and i would like to know if I'm a Candice for Thermi Tight and if i would get good results
Answer: What do I do with loose skin? Thank you for your questioning and your excellent photos. Based on the amount of skin laxity you have your perfect candidate for an abdominoplasty however I think there is one other option before choosing to have a long and good scar with a tummy tuck. The only other thing that I would recommend is getting a procedure called J-plasma. It is a minimally invasive option that allows for the skin to tighten. It is done like liposuction but uses helium under the skin to help the tissue and septae( or connects from the muscle to skin to tighten. It is NOT a tummy tuck but it can get 30-80% of a tummy tuck like result without the scars. The results are based on your skin's make up. Hope this helps. All the best.

CONTACT NOW Answer: ThermiTight/Skin Tightening/High Definition procedures Thank you for your question. I recommend a combination of procedures for optimal results. ThermiTight utilizes a small electrode inserted under the skin to heat tissue to a selected therapeutic temperature. Literature has shown that elevating skin to a therapeutic temperature level can contract collagen molecules and stimulate collagen production, which may give the appearance of lifting or tightening. Fat reduction is rare, unless set to high temperatures and kept at high temperatures for a significant amount of time . To best answer your question, it depends on how much skin laxity you have. ThermiTight can work well in the thigh area to tighten skin that is mild to moderately laxity. Surgery may be a better option, if you have excessive laxity. Results with ThermiTight vary from patient to patient. You should experience some overall improvement. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: ThermiTight vs Tummy Tuck Thank you for your question. ThermiRF® treats skin laxity by converting heat with radio-frequency energy to remodel the tissues. Thermi Tight is a minimally invasive process, performed under local anesthesia using controlled sub dermal tissue heating. It can be used on the tissues of the neck, arms, abdomen and legs. It has been shown to approve the appearance of cellulite. Thermi Tight is generally a single procedure. Keep in mind Thermi Tight is a minimally invasive procedure and although results can be great, it will not produce the same results as any surgical lift procedure could. Consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon to see if this procedure is right for you or if more traditional surgery is necessary. Good luck!
