Hi there! I'm a 35 year old male who has lost around 55lbs over the last 3 years. I'm looking to now refine my shape and restore volume to my gluteal area that I lost after losing weight, in addition to anything (implants or fat transfer) to my pectoral area to enhance that. This being said, I'm aware of laxity in my abdomen but would rather just keep "the body I have" than face the telltale scar and belly button of a tummy tuck. I'd take a "5/10" outcome without abdominoplasty over a "8/10+' outcome with one LOL. I'm not sure if there is any merit to a procedure like Renuvion or BodyTite or if a TT is truly my only option.
