Answer: Help tighten abdomen area and minimize appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with Morpheus8 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

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: Post pregnancy abdomen wrinkles and stretch marks Thank you for the question. While surgery will no doubt have the best effect it often does not remodel the stretch mark scars and in certain cases can make them appear worse. In cases like yours I would optimally recommend both surgery as well as skin resurfacing and skin tightening to achieve the best results. Overall, and in an optimal world, I would recommend surgery first followed by microneedling (regular, prp enhanced or Radiofrequency enhanced) as well as skin tightening. Regardless of what you chose I would strongly encourage you to see a board certified dermatologist and or plastic surgeon. Nothing beats an expert and an in person consultation to get the best results. Good luck

Answer: Post Pregnancy Skin Tightening Multiple pregnancies and fluctuations in weight can stretch the abdominal core and overlying skin. Despite diet and exercise, the skin may not retract to a youthful, aesthetic contour. Minimally invasive or non-invasive devices will have a very modest change for unwanted skin. The gold standard remains an abdominoplasty with liposuction to maximize contour of the waist to remove unwanted skin and create a tapered silhouette.
