Hi, I'm a male in my late 20s, and I had liposuction back in early May. I’m really happy the love handles are gone, but now I've got some loose skin below my belly button. I figured this might happen since I already had some stretch marks there, but I was hoping it would tighten up a bit over time. It’s been 4 months, and the loose skin hasn’t improved, so I’m starting to think about a skin tightening procedure. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Answer: BodyTite I think an energy device, such as BodyTite (Renuvion, J-Plasma are also options), would help to tighten the skin in these areas. These devices apply energy to dermis to try and get the skin to tighten more than traditional liposuction. Although they are moderately invasive, they do tend to have a good effect on the skin typically.

Answer: Tighten unwanted loose skin with Morpheus8 treatments. 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
