A few years ago I rapidly gained around 100 lbs. I was overweight for maybe two years. I’ve since lost the weight, and firmed up my muscles; however some skin laxity (and rippling) remains. My main factors for not wanting surgery are price and scarring. I’m a fairly hairy guy, and a hip to hip scar (and possibly one around my navel) would be more noticeable w/ any missing hair. I’ve heard RF & vacuum could resolve the issue (one site having before & after pics). Is this a viable option?

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: Skin tightening abdomen Thank you for your inquiry. Based on your photos it would appear that a tummy tuck or surgical procedure would be your best option. Noninvasive procedures would give you some improvement but you would need to be realistic about your expectations. A combination therapy with a noninvasive fat reduction device such as Coolsculpting combined with a skin tightening device such as Exillis or Lutronic Infini would be good options.
