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.

Answer: It is possible to have my excess skin tightened without a full tummy tuck? Thank you for sharing your question. Unfortunately without an in-person examination of your tissues, or a full series of photographs it is difficult to offer definite advice. I would seek out a series of in-person consultations to get the best treatment advice.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Thank you for your question! Liposuction will remove excess fat with some retraction of skin. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!
