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: Morpheus8 a procedure called Morpheus8 could potentially help you. Morpheus8 helps to dissolve fat and tighten the skin with radiofrequency while also helping skin texture. The procedure is done with adequate numbing cream and does not require anesthesia. Another option for comfort is the use of pronox (laughing gas) which some practices like our tend to use. The procedure takes about 30 minutes or so with a downtime of roughly 3 days. The downtime includes redness, irritation, and itching which can all be treated with a good gentle lotion. it is recommended to do about 3 treatments, 8-10 weeks apart for the body. It is important to book your procedure in the winter/fall months as avoiding sun exposure is crucial for this procedure.

Answer: Loose abdominal skin There are a few options to consider. You could look into a tummy tuck which would surgically remove the loose skin. You can also consider BodyTite. This minimally invasive procedure uses RF technology to tighten skin. No general anesthesia is required. Results can be enhanced by adding Morpheus8 treatments. Visit my website or a provider near you to learn more.

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

Answer: Morpheus8 Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Based on your concerns, I highly recommend treating the area of concern with Morpheus8. Morpheus8 is a radiofrequency microneedling treatment that can help tighten and improve the appearance of loose skin. It combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and promote skin tightening. While it's commonly used on areas like the face and neck, it can also be applied to the body, including the stomach. For loose skin on the stomach, Morpheus8 can offer noticeable improvements by enhancing skin elasticity and firmness. However, the degree of tightening you can expect will depend on factors such as the severity of the skin laxity, your skin type, and how well your body responds to the treatment. I use Morpheus8 all the time and highly recommend it! I hope this helps and best of luck.
