Problems in the abdominal area are often caused by sudden weight loss, the postpartum period, or age-related changes. The skin looks “flabby” and gathers in folds.

Laser tightening is a non-surgical technique that allows you to restore elasticity to the skin and make stretch marks less noticeable. The method is safe and effective. In most cases, effectiveness depends on the severity of the problem and age. If there is a significant excess of skin, then you need to contact a plastic surgeon to clarify the possibility of performing abdominoplasty.

Indications

Laser facelift is right for you if:

  • The abdomen is flabby, but there is no large excess skin;
  • Stretch marks on the skin;
  • Sharp weight loss over the last 3-4 months.

When in doubt, you should consult a cosmetologist. The specialist will assess the amount of fat deposits, skin structure and elasticity. Based on the results of the examination, a treatment program is drawn up.

In the presence of fat deposits, lifting can be successfully combined with RF lifting, cryolipolysis and injection procedures using lipolytics.

Abdominal skin rejuvenation and tightening

Home › Blog › Rejuvenation and tightening of abdominal skin

The stomach is perhaps the most problematic part of the body.

And extra pounds are the most difficult to “go away” here, and this is where the skin is especially susceptible to sagging.

In women, the situation is complicated by pregnancy and childbirth, after which stretch marks and folds often form, and the skin becomes loose.

Sometimes, to rejuvenate and tighten the abdomen, a radical measure is required - plastic surgery. In some cases, you can get by with the laser method. The complex: plastic surgery + laser is often practiced, and this method is the most effective.

We present to your attention a kind of instruction - what to expect from a visit to a cosmetologist if you decide to rejuvenate and tighten the skin of your abdomen.

If for some reason you put off going to a cosmetologist who could give clear recommendations, try diagnosing the problem yourself.

Answer the questions: what exactly doesn’t suit you?

Please note what problems you have:

  • A. saggy abdominal skin
  • B. fat fold or “cushion” on the abdomen
  • B. loose skin on the abdomen
  • D. stretch marks on the abdomen

If your list of problems includes items A and B, then most likely you will need the help of a plastic surgeon. In the first case, it will be abdominoplasty (removal of excess skin on the abdomen), in the second - liposuction (removal of excess fat). These operations are most often carried out in combination.

If, in addition to these points, your list includes points C and D (loose skin and stretch marks), then plastic surgery must be performed in combination with laser skin rejuvenation. After all, plastic surgery does not solve the problem of skin quality, but is aimed only at eliminating excess.

RecoSMA laser rejuvenation has a tightening effect, thereby eliminating skin sagging. The procedure not only tightens the skin and renews it, but also makes stretch marks and scars less noticeable (including after plastic surgery). The skin after RecoSMA becomes smooth, healthy, elastic and strong. The procedure does not require rehabilitation. Immediately after RecoSMA you will be able to resume your normal activities. Redness of the skin disappears on the 3rd day after the procedure.

All about the treatment of hyperhidrosis

The essence of the procedure

For tightening, a German-made erbium laser MCL-30 Dermablate from Asclepion Laser Technologies is used.

This type of laser is called “cold”. This is related to the wavelength of light.

Laser abdominoplasty takes place without incisions, pain or burning, and in some cases the effect is comparable to the result of classical surgery.

Mechanism of laser action

Regeneration processes are launched in the epidermal layer of the skin. Active production of collagen and elastin occurs. The firmness and elasticity of the skin of the abdomen increases, visible defects disappear.

When is a mini tummy tuck necessary?

This procedure is similar to a regular abdominoplasty. It also restores an attractive belly shape. The difference is in scale. Abdominoplasty corrects the upper and lower abdominal area. A mini-option of the operation will help remove defects only in the lower abdomen:

  • excess fat;
  • loose skin;
  • decreased muscle tone, their divergence;
  • postoperative scars;
  • stretch marks.

This method is less traumatic, the rehabilitation period is shorter - only 2-3 weeks. The scar after plastic surgery is almost invisible; it is usually hidden in the bikini area. This is why mini abdominoplasty is so popular. Prices are another plus: the procedure is much cheaper than a full tummy tuck.

There are 3 methods of surgical intervention. Each of them is used to solve a specific cosmetic problem:

  1. Periumbilical. The incision is made in the navel area. This is how loose skin in this part of the abdomen is removed.
  2. With a slit in the bikini area. The operation is used to remove excess fat and tighten the skin in the lower abdomen.
  3. Non-surgical tummy tuck. The top layer of skin is removed. A tummy tuck without surgery is indicated for scars, stretch marks and some other cosmetic skin defects.

results

To demonstrate a high-quality result of laser tightening, it is recommended to undergo a course of procedures. The visual result is noticeable after the first procedure. Rehabilitation and skin restoration takes approximately 5-10 days. The dermis may be red and swollen after the procedure, so effectiveness is assessed after a few days.

Post-procedure care

To consolidate the results obtained, specialized care, a course of RF lifting and physiotherapeutic procedures are prescribed. It is recommended to limit salt intake, maintain fluid balance, and adhere to a rational diet.

Contraindications

It is not recommended to perform procedures during an active inflammatory process. If you have a viral disease, you should wait 2 weeks.

Absolute contraindications:

  • Oncological diseases;
  • Decompensated diabetes mellitus;
  • Exacerbation of chronic diseases.

Lifting is not performed during pregnancy and lactation. The manipulation can be carried out a month after the end of feeding.

What to expect from the procedure?

Mini abdominoplasty is one of the most popular operations in cosmetic surgery in Moscow. But it also has contraindications. Mini abdominoplasty cannot be performed:

  • for acute infectious, endocrine, oncological diseases, as well as chronic ones in the acute stage;
  • allergies to medications used during surgery and postoperative treatment;
  • obesity degree II or III;
  • severe mental disorders;
  • blood diseases, especially problems with clotting.

In addition, the procedure is not recommended for women planning pregnancy within a year. First of all, it's pointless. With variability, the tightening effect will simply disappear. Secondly, complications are possible, because the operation is performed on the abdominal muscles. Namely, they bear the main burden during pregnancy.

If all of the above does not concern you, feel free to contact the clinic. At your first appointment, the doctor will simply examine you and prescribe tests. He must make sure that you are healthy and that the operation will not harm you. If everything is in order, you will be given a date for the procedure. Mini abdominoplasty is performed in several stages. Doctor:

  • Applies markings to indicate areas that need to be corrected.
  • Treats the stomach with an antiseptic.
  • Conducts anesthesia. During surgery, it will be under general anesthesia. If using a non-surgical method, local anesthesia is sufficient.
  • Performs surgery: performs liposuction, muscle tightening, removes excess skin.
  • Stitches up the wound.

The entire procedure lasts from 1.5 to 2.5 hours. After the operation, you will have to spend 2-3 days in the hospital under the supervision of a doctor.

Benefits of RF lifting

The procedure takes place without any violation of the integrity of the skin, which makes it not only painless, but also absolutely safe and atraumatic.

The expert clinic "ALODERM" offers lifting using the modern Spa RF system from Alma Lasers, which has a unique two-phase effect. Thanks to this, uniform 3D heating of tissues at 2 different depths is achieved.

The depth of exposure is carefully controlled by the doctor, ensuring maximum effectiveness of the procedure.

The duration of the procedure is 30-40 minutes, after which you can immediately leave the clinic. After just 1 RF lifting session, you will see results that will only get stronger every day. The entire process naturally tightens the skin of the abdomen without creating the effect of “tightness” and leaves no traces of the manipulation.

The effectiveness of laser removal of stretch marks and other defects in the abdominal area

The most effective procedure for solving a number of processes of atrophic changes in the skin of the abdomen is laser resurfacing.

The resurfacing process removes the superficial layer of the epidermis, affecting the deeper dermal layers. This leads to a decrease in the depth of stretch marks, stretch marks and other aesthetic defects.

The skin is designed in such a way that laser damage and heating of its surface causes activation of fibroblasts, which in turn triggers the processes of synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers, which are responsible for maintaining the normal condition of the skin.

After just one session, the patient sees a clear result and improvement in skin quality. The number of sessions for laser removal of stretch marks directly depends on their depth and “age”, and varies from 2-3 sessions to 5-8, with a break of 1.5-2 months.

Benefits of thermolifting procedures

  1. All laser thermolifting procedures are carried out without damaging the skin surface, so there is no rehabilitation period.
  2. The procedure is painless so no anesthesia is required.
  3. The visible skin lifting effect is noticeable the next day after the procedure. After a course of 4-6 procedures, the rejuvenation and tightening effect lasts up to 3-5 years.
  4. Laser thermolifting is a procedure that can be performed all year round, regardless of the time of year.
  5. The combination of thermolifting procedures with fractional laser skin resurfacing, which reduces the skin flap, increases the effect of rejuvenation and tightening tenfold. In cases of such a combination of rejuvenation procedures, rehabilitation will be 5-6 days.

Types of laser thermolifting in our clinic

To perform deep laser skin reconstruction procedures (thermolifting), our clinic offers two very professional laser devices:

  • Fotona SP Dynamis is a neodymium laser (Nd:Yag) with two patented unique technologies for affecting the skin without damaging its surface - Frac3 and Piano;
  • Palomar DeepIR is an infrared laser for thermolifting procedures with controlled fractional thermal effects on the dermis at a depth of 6-7 mm.

Indications for laser thermolifting

  • Lost clarity of facial relief
  • Jaws and double chin
  • Wrinkles of any kind
  • Enlarged pores and any atrophic scars
  • Dull complexion
  • Loose skin in the abdomen, inner shoulders and thighs, etc.

How is laser thermolifting performed?

The thermolifting procedure lasts 40-50 minutes. During its implementation, the patient feels tolerable warmth and a slight tingling sensation. According to reviews and photos of patients, after a laser thermolifting procedure for the face, eyelids and area around the eyes, slight redness of the skin persists for up to several hours.

Deep laser skin reconstruction can be performed as a single procedure to quickly improve the appearance, skin color and minor lifting - a “weekend” procedure. To achieve the effect of noticeable and long-term rejuvenation and tightening of the skin, it is necessary to undergo a course of procedures - usually from 4 to 6 sessions every 3-4 weeks.

In combination with other laser treatments and cosmetic procedures, the effectiveness of laser thermal lifting increases several times.

The presence in our clinic of two professional laser machines, and therefore the possibility of combined use of several technologies of deep laser rejuvenation and reconstruction of the dermis, ensures safety, quick and long-term results of thermolifting procedures for the skin of the face and body at reasonable prices in Moscow, according to patient reviews.

How it works?

Fibroblasts are special skin cells that synthesize many structural components of the dermis, including elastin and collagen. The basis of radio wave lifting is precisely the stimulation of these cells using thermal pulses. Thus, the processes of neocologenesis and the production of elastin are launched, which restore the elasticity and tone of the skin.

Also, under the action of the device, damaged collagen threads are reduced. Together, both of these actions give a powerful effect of rejuvenating and tightening the skin of the abdomen. The silhouette becomes more toned, stretch marks and post-operative scars become less pronounced, the skin takes on a fresh and healthy appearance.
