Flat Abs: A Tummy Tuck Alternative without Surgery!
Get Flat, Firm Abs With This Tummy Tuck Alternative!
There’s no question that tummy tuck surgery is the most effective and powerful means of tightening a sagging belly. But many patients are not ready or in a position to undergo a surgical procedure. The good news is that AMAE Plastic Surgery & Med Spa in the Troy, MI area now offers several non-surgical procedures that can remove fat and tighten skin on the abdomen.
On of our most popular tummy flattening treatments is Profound – a revolutionary non-surgical skin tightening procedure that delivers tummy tuck type results without invasive surgery! Profound can also be performed in combination with CoolSculpting fat removal without surgery and with no downtime.
Renowned Troy, MI area board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali, has performed hundreds of surgical tummy tucks with spectacular results. But he also understands that some patients don’t need or may not be ready to undergo a surgical tummy tuck. In this article explains how Profound skin tightening offers a revolutionary alternative to tummy tuck surgery for some patients.
Why Consider an Alternative to Tummy Tuck Surgery
There are, in fact, many patients who simply can’t or won’t undergo tummy tuck surgery. Many people are reluctant to commit to surgery because they are unwilling or unable to take off the time necessary for recovery from surgery. Others patients may have underlying health issues that make elective surgery to risky. And, some people, simply do not want to incur the expense of tummy tuck surgery.
Additionally, some patients may only need mild to moderate abdominal skin tightening – and don’t require full blown tummy tuck surgery.
For all of these people, a non surgical alternative to tummy tuck surgery – with Profound alone or with Profound + CoolSculpting – can be the ideal solution.
Radiofrequency Tummy Tuck Alternative
Dr. Ali is proud to be one of the only plastic surgeons in the greater Troy, MI area to offer state-of-the-art Profound skin tightening. Innovative Profound technology combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to tighten the skin on the belly on a deep cellular level.
Tiny microneedles penetrate the abdominal skin, emitting RF thermal energy at a precise depth. The microscopic wounds stimulate the body’s natural healing process, while the radiofrequency stimulates the production of elastin, collagen, and hyaluronic acid. The result is dramatically tightened and toned stomach area skin.
Tummy Tuck Results without Surgery
In clinical studies, Profound tightened skin in an astounding 100% of treated patients. And in controlled medical trials Profound skin tightening was shown to deliver an improvement in loose, lax skin equivalent to 37% of a surgical skin tightening.
Benefits of Profound Tummy Tuck Alternative
Traditional tummy tuck surgery requires general anesthetic (“putting under”), a large incision, as well as a recovery time of 2 to 4 weeks. And, while Dr. Ali is skilled at hiding tummy tuck scars, some scarring is inevitable with any surgery. Additionally, any time there is incisions, post-operative pain is unavoidable.
The Profound non-surgical skin tightening, however, utilizes the body’s own natural ability to restore and regenerate skin tone and texture – by re-accelerating the body’s own production of hyaluronic acid, elastin, and collagen. This means Profound is able tighten and tone the abdominal skin with no incisions – meaning that there are no scars and the patient does not have to be put under anesthetic.
There is also much shorter downtime with Profound than with tummy tuck surgery. Typically Profound patients can return to work or daily activities in 3 to 5 days. And, best of all, Profound skin tightening costs much less than tummy tuck surgery.
Profound abdominal skin tightening only takes about 60 minutes, and delivers long-lasting results in just a single treatment! Profound abdominal skin tightening can also be offered along with noninvasive CoolSculpting or minimally invasive liposuction if belly skin doesn’t have enough elasticity to “snap back” after the fat loss.
It is important to remember though that Profound only delivers extraordinary skin tightening benefits, but it does not repair torn or stretched abdominal muscles. Only tummy surgery can repair damaged muscles that are causing a sagging belly.
Profound Plus CoolSculpting
Combining the skin-tightening effects of Profound with CoolSculpting offers an even more extensive non-surgical solution for obtaining flat abs without surgery. CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared treatment that uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate fat cells in targeted areas. CoolSculpting is particularly effective for addressing those diet and exercise-resistant pockets of fat around the midsection, helping to sculpt and contour your abdomen.
By combining these two powerful technologies, we can address both excess fat and skin laxity – the two main concerns that often lead patients to consider a tummy tuck. This dual approach allows us to provide comprehensive body contouring results without the downtime and recovery associated with surgical procedures.
It’s important to note that while this combination can offer impressive results for many patients, it may not be suitable for everyone. Patients with significant skin laxity or muscle separation might still achieve better results with a traditional tummy tuck. However, for those with mild to moderate concerns, or for those looking to enhance the results of previous weight loss efforts, the Profound and CoolSculpting combination can be an excellent “tummy tuck alternative.”
