What is a Non Surgical Tummy Tuck?
The effects of aging, childbirth, weight fluctuations, and lifestyle changes can often result in loose skin, diminished muscle tone, and stubborn fat deposits on the belly that resist traditional diet and exercise.
For decades, the only aesthetic procedure that would flatten a belly and tighten abdominal skin was a surgical tummy tuck – technically called an abdominoplasty. Unfortunately, traditional tummy tuck surgery is not only extremely expensive, but also comes with its share of disadvantages, including pain, scarring, and weeks of downtime.
Recognizing the demand for non-invasive “tummy tuck” alternatives, Dr. Hetal Gor at Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ offers several innovative treatments designed to provide effective, surgery-free solutions for transforming the appearance of your tummy. These minimally-invasive and non-invasive procedures can tighten abdominal skin, eliminate belly fat, and even build and tone ab muscles – all without surgery.
Disadvantages of Tummy Tuck Surgery
Traditional tummy tuck surgery, while very effective, comes with several drawbacks that might dissuade individuals from choosing it for abdominal rejuvenation. To begin with, tummy tuck surgery in the Englewood area is extremely expensive.
According to plastic surgery website RealSelf the average cost of tummy tuck surgery in the US is is about $10,500 – and can range up to $20,000.
While the cost of a tummy tuck varies according to factors including the plastic surgeon, the complexity of the procedure, the geographic location, and fees for facilities, and anesthesia, – a price tag of $10,000 or more puts it out of reach for many patients.
Additionally, the pain, significant scarring, and an extended recovery period are some of the additional drawbacks associated with tummy tuck surgery. And, as with any surgery, there is also the risk of complications such as infection or reactions to the anesthetic.
However, with advancements in medical aesthetics, non-surgical tummy tuck alternatives have emerged. At Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ Dr. Gor offers patients the chance to achieve a flat tight tummy – and even “6 pack abs’ – without the drawbacks associated with surgery.
Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck Treatments at Better U in Englewood, NJ
These non-surgical tummy tuck treatments available at Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ offer targeted solutions for abdominal slimming, tightening, and toning – each addressing specific aspects such as skin tightening, muscle building, or fat reduction. Their minimally invasive nature provides patients with alternatives to traditional tummy tuck surgery, allowing for tailored treatments with reduced or no downtime and without the risks associated with surgery.
AccuTite Abdominal Skin Tightening
AccuTite is a skin tightening treatment that targets loose skin directly. It utilizes radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten and rejuvenate the abdominal skin.
AccuTite employs advanced technology, which delivers controlled thermal energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This energy stimulates collagen and elastin production, promoting skin tightening and rejuvenation.
A tiny, minimally invasive wand is inserted beneath the skin through small incisions. The wand delivers RF energy precisely to the treatment area, targeting loose skin on the abdomen. The procedure is typically performed under local numbing, ensuring patient comfort.
The controlled thermal energy tightens the skin without the need for tummy tuck surgery, resulting in very little downtime, no scarring, and a quick and comfortable recovery.
AccuFit Muscle Building Treatment
AccuFit is a non-invasive muscle building treatment that utilizes advanced technology to stimulate muscle contractions, effectively building and toning the abdominal muscles – without exercise.
AccuFit uses a combination of radiofrequency and microcurrent technology to stimulate thousands of muscle contractions in a single session. This induces muscle toning and strengthening, contributing to a more sculpted appearance.
The procedure involves placing specialized applicators on the targeted abdominal muscles. These applicators emit RF and microcurrent energy, triggering muscle contractions. Patients experience these contractions as intensive but comfortable muscle workouts. It offers a precise and efficient approach to building abdominal muscles, providing an alternative for individuals seeking muscle toning without the associated risks and recovery time of tummy tuck surgery.
Emsculpt NEO Muscle Building Treatment
Emsculpt NEO is the newest non-invasive muscle building treatment available at Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ. It employs a combination of radiofrequency and electromagnetic energy, to not only tighten abdominal muscles but also helps eliminate stubborn fat deposits.
During the treatment, high-intensity electromagnetic pulses are delivered to the targeted muscles, causing powerful contractions. Simultaneously, RF energy helps heat fat cells, initiating a process of apoptosis. The procedure is non-invasive and requires no downtime.
Emsculpt NEO provides a comprehensive non-surgical tummy tuck solution by addressing both muscle tone and fat reduction in the abdominal area. The non-surgical nature of the treatment makes it an attractive option for individuals seeking aesthetic improvement without the commitment and recovery associated with surgery.
Where needed, it can also be combined with AccuFit or our other skin tightening treatments to address loose skin, as well.
CoolSculpting ELITE for Abdominal Fat Removal
CoolSculpting ELITE is perhaps the best known and most popular non-invasive fat reduction method. It freezes and eliminates fat cells from the abdomen, “love handles” and other areas of troublesome, unwanted fat.
CoolSculpting ELITE employs cryolipolysis, a technology that freezes and destroys fat cells. The treated fat cells are gradually eliminated from the body through natural metabolic processes. Once the fat cells are killed and removed from the body, they can never come back in the treated are.
During a CoolSculpting “tummy tuck” at available at Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ applicators are placed on the targeted abdominal area, delivering controlled cooling. This process freezes the unwanted fat cells without harming surrounding tissues. Over several weeks, the body naturally eliminates the damaged fat cells.
With no incisions, patients experience no pain, no scars and no downtime, making it an appealing option for those seeking belly fat reduction without the risks and recovery associated with tummy tuck surgery.
JuvaShape & SculpSure Body Contouring
While CoolSculpting employs freezing, JuvaShape and SculpSure both use thermal (heat) energy to permanently destroy fat cells. SculpSure is a laser-based body contouring technology that targets and destroys fat cells without affecting the skin. While JuvaShape utilizes radiofrequency energy to both target fat cells and simultaneously tighten the skin, offering a comprehensive solution for abdominal fat removal and skin tightening.
JuvaShape’s radiofrequency energy penetrates the tissues, including fat cells and collagen-rich skin layers. This not only eliminates fat but also stimulates collagen production, tightens skin, and enhances overall body contour. During the treatment, a handheld device delivers RF energy to the specific areas on the abdomen – resulting in improved skin elasticity and contouring without the need for invasive tummy tuck surgery.
