It is possible to have my excess skin tightened without a full tummy tuck?

Asked By:Islegirl007 in Los Angeles, California

Is it possible to have my excess skin tightened, without a full tummy tuck? My co worker went to Mexico, and said she got her skin "tightened" without laser or having a TT. Her procedure was a minor surgery, that basically got rid of her extra skin/stretch marks. Is this possible possible in the U.S? I want to stay local if possible, just in case any issues arise.
