Options for loose skin above belly button? (photo)

Question

Hi, I had my third baby one year ago and have been working hard to get back in shape. I am pretty happy with my tummy apart from the skin above my navel. I would love some advice on options for fixing this. Thanks!

We have seen great results using our ThermiTight treatment in combination with our Nano-Ray laser to treat the loose skin around the belly button. Make sure you see an experienced provider for an in-person consultation and evaluation to determine which treatments would be most appropriate for you. Best wishes.

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,
