Would BodyTite help my butt and leg issues? Is saggy skin the issue? (Photos)

Question

13 months ago I was hospitalised with Covid. I lost 2 stone (13kg). Despite gradually getting back to a healthy weight, I have been very unhappy with my body. My bum and legs appear lumpy. I assumed this was cellulite, so spent a lot of money on lipofirm and carboxy therapy with no improvement. I took some images standing normally and then pulling the skin upwards. It greatly improves my concerns, so it may be saggy skin which is my issue? What would you suggest for best scarless results?

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

Unfortunately, body tight is not going through healthy appearance of your bum. The energy which is being used in body tite procedures increases temperature significantly underneath the skin, melting fat in the process (deflating the body even further). Even though the appearance at first appears to be that of an improvement, the results are rather suboptimal and in fact can lead to more looseness of skin some 6 to 12 months later. This is the reason why patients should maintain more or less constant weight throughout their lifetime. Some things are completely unavoidable secondary to genetics.
