Age 51, saggy tummy with dent in the middle - Thermage or truSculpt iD? (Photo)

Hello,I believe that due to the excess fat and sagging in your abdomen, neither of these two technologies would benefit you. The TruSculpt iD technology, which utilizes Cutera's extremely low-frequency monopolar radiofrequency system, may not meet your expectations. TruSculpt iD targets the subcutaneous fat layer, reaching only up to 45ºC in the fat layer.This low temperature increase minimally increases the apoptosis of subcutaneous fat tissue, which may not suffice for your issue. Thermage is an advanced monopolar radiofrequency system designed for skin tightening and rejuvenation. However, improving only skin tautness won't resolve the contour irregularity in your abdomen.Upon reviewing your photos, my recommendation for you would be the J-Plasma procedure. It involves a combination of radiofrequency and helium gas, raising the subdermal temperature to 80° while preserving the skin surface. By safely breaking down fat cells while keeping the skin cool during the process, it tightens the skin as well. Hence, it's highly effective for contour irregularities and sagging caused by excess fat. It's a single-session procedure that doesn't disrupt daily life and has a comfortable post-operation recovery. It maximizes the impact on skin tightening. Therefore, the J-Plasma procedure would be highly suitable for addressing the excess fat, sagging, and contour irregularity in your abdomen. We can assist you in our clinic by examining you and sharing examples of patients who underwent this procedure.
