Non-surgical tummy tuck treatments have risen in over the last few years, with many patients unable or unwilling to undergo a more invasive surgical or .

At our Baker Street clinic, our aesthetic practitioners offer laser fat reduction and laser skin tightening for patients with mild skin laxity and modest excess fat. Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity may also be ideal candidates for or BodyTite radiofrequency skin tightening. involves the insertion of a specialised probe beneath the skin, followed by the application of bipolar radiofrequency energy to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in tighter, firmer skin. BodyTite can also be combined with for even more powerful skin tightening without the need for more invasive treatments. Morpheus8 treatment can be performed with a topical anaesthetic, taking approximately 60 minutes to treat the entire abdomen. Many patients notice favourable improvements after just three Morpheus8 skin-tightening sessions.

Unfortunately, several ineffective non-surgical tummy tuck treatments are inappropriately promoted to prospective patients and are either useless or have undesirable side effects. Patients must conduct extensive research on the treatment, the practitioner who will perform it, and the clinic where the treatment will take place.

At Centre for Surgery, our practitioners focus on a results-driven approach with safe and effective treatments. Our aftercare continues well after treatment to ensure patients have access to the correct information at the right time.

However, for most patients with more generalised skin laxity and loose, wrinkly skin, the ideal treatment is a tummy tuck; for those with localised skin laxity in the lower abdomen, a mini tummy tuck is preferred.

Tummy tuck surgery has been associated with several risks and complications and a lengthy recovery period. However, recent breakthroughs in anaesthesia and surgery have made the modern tummy tuck procedure very safe and have shortened its recovery period. Most tummy tuck surgeries in the UK are as inpatient hospital procedures and often involve a 2- to 3-night stay. Centre for Surgery is one of the few clinics in the UK to carry out day-case abdominoplasty surgery, which means that patients can go home the same day after the procedure and recover in the comfort of their own homes. Evidence shows that patients who undergo day-case tummy tuck surgery have a lower risk of complications and better aesthetic outcomes.

Surgical tummy tuck versus non-surgical tummy tuck

Tummy tuck surgery, including the Brazilian tummy tuck, involves a horizontal incision across the lower abdomen, followed by meticulous separation of the skin and fat from the underlying abdominal muscles. The weakened abdominal muscles are surgically repaired, followed by the removal of excess skin. The skin is then carefully resutured whilst a new belly button is . Tummy tuck surgery is carried out under TIVA general anaesthesia, the most advanced form of anaesthesia for day surgery, which eliminates many of the associated with traditional general anaesthesia.

Abdominoplasty surgery produces significant and long-lasting results as long as patients maintain a healthy lifestyle. Patients often notice a significant improvement in body shape immediately after the procedure. Nonsurgical tummy tuck treatments can produce effective results in appropriately selected patients who are unable to achieve the dramatic results possible with tummy tuck surgery. Many patients find the lack of incisions, scars, and downtime an attractive feature of nonsurgical tummy tuck treatments.
