What the best non-surgical skin tightening treatment for the tummy? (Photo)

Question

I am 42 years old I've had two children. I am very fit but I would like to know if I can tighten the skin below my belly button anymore than I already have? About five years ago I had a mini tummy tuck but in recent years the skin has become more noticeably less taut. What can you recommend as the best non-surgical treatment ? Thanks for your help

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.

There are a lot of options for skin tightening. However, non surgical options give only mild improvement compared to surgical lifting. Skin tightening can be done with a combination of vanquish, venus legacy, exilis, celllutone/Zwave, VASER liposuction with ThermiRF. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

There are many options for non surgical skin tightening.  You must be realistic however about what can be accomplished by these methods.  If you are sure that you do not want a surgical intervention than a non invasive procedure may give you the results that you are looking for.  In my office we use a combination of exillis and or lutronic infini. with good results.

We use a variety of skin-tightening technologies to help people achieve their goals.  For you particular situation, I would recommend either a series of Velashape treatments, which can be less expensive, or a one-time RF treatment such as Thermage, with which we have had great success.
Even the staff working with us have used these on themselves with amazing results.
