I am almost 45 years old. I am 5’4 129lbs and am active. I have 3 children and have gained and lost 160lbs with the pregnancy’s. My oldest child is 7. I have an annoying wrinkle above my bellybutton. I am very self conscious about it and am wondering what my options are. I am not interested in any elective surgery, but I’m wondering what my options are to fix or improve my problem. Thank you.
Answer: Reduce appearance of fine lines and unwanted loose skin by doing morpheus8 Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Nonsurgical Stomach Skin Tightening -- Vanquish, truSculpt, Venus, Exilis, Cellutone/ZWave vs VASER Hi-Def Lipo & Tummy Tuck 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

Answer: Tightening Loose Abdominal Skin At home treatments will not give you much improvement. If you are looking for non-surgical options, I would recommend a subdermal radiofrequency treatment such as ThermiTight, combined with laser resurfacing to treat any superficial lines and wrinkles. Make sure you see an experienced physician provider for an in-person consultation and evaluation. Best wishes.
