Had Tummy tuck 2 yrs ago, looked great, over time skin has become loose & stretch marks have come back. What can I do? (photo)

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.

Hello, I would honestly say you look great after 4 kids! Yes skin will lose its elasticity over time but you don't have enough loose skin to be able to treat it without having some skin surface irregularities. I would not recommend any surgical or invasive treatment. I would though recommend VirtueRF for a more effective and quicker result. It is a skin resurfacing treatment that can help with scarring and actually tighten skin as well. My office in Manhattan has this device. We use it for all topical skin issues! It's got great results and it's recommend for skin like yours.. fair and close to perfection. :)
