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
Your lower abdominal skin appears to be fairly normal for a 29 year old. You did mention two habits which are hard on skin and cause premature aging, namely tanning beds and cigarette smoking, so eliminating these aggravators will be to your advantage. Skin tightening systems such as Sciton SkinTyte, Titan, Thermage and Excilis will certainly help tighten skin that is not needing surgical intervention. Although there is a paucity of scientific evidence, I have patients who swear that Strivectin works so check that out as well.
