There are three non surgical tummy tuck procedures available. Below you will find a quick glimpse at the different procedures.

Injection Lipolysis

As the name implies, the injection lipolysis procedure is done by injection. By injecting a chemical solution of lecithin into the fatty deposits, surgeons can actually melt the fat away. This procedure usually requires the patient have 2-3 injections in order to get all of the fat removed. This non surgical procedure can be used on the arms, legs, jowls, abdomen, neck, sides and thighs.

However, this procedure is still in the testing stages, and hasn’t been approved by the FDA. From the testing that has taken place recently, this procedure does show promise and seems to be very effective.

Ultrasonic Lipolysis

Ultrasonic lipolysis is done by injecting sterile water coupled with anaesthetic into the problem area. Once this is done, you are treated to an ultrasonic massage, which must be repeated 4 times within a week’s time. This procedure dissolves fat over time. Typically, patients will have to undergo treatment for weeks in order to get the desired effect.

Titan/Tri-active Lasers

These lasers heat up collagen fibres, shortening them, which helps to tighten up the skin as well. This treatment is probably the most popular of them all. No injections or anaesthetic is required.

In some cases, one or more of these techniques will be used in conjunction with one another. In order to better understand, and find out which procedure is best for you, consulting your doctor should be your first order of business.

Often non surgical tummy tucks and liposuction surgery can be avoided all together by employing a healthy life style and a balanced diet plan. However, in some cases, non surgical or surgical tummy tucks are unavoidable.

If you’re considering having a non surgical tummy tuck, you should consult your family doctor first. He or she will be able to refer you to a qualified surgeon who deals with these procedures. Ask lots of questions, and make sure you understand all of the risks involved before undergoing the procedure.
