Robert Whitfield MD explains why skin sags after 30 or 40, especially around the chin. Liposuction removes bulk, but adding devices like BodyTite or Morpheus can boost skin tightening results by about 30 percent.
Power-assisted, ultrasound-assisted, and laser liposuction.
Power-assisted liposuction.
About 30% more skin tightening.
Age, your skin will become more lax. And by the time you're in their 30s and 40s, if you've not had children, that stuff, that result will start to wax and wane a little bit. It'll loosen up. We see this most frequently in chins. Honestly, chin liposuction done in the 20s and 30s looks a little bit ragged when you get in your fourth and fifth decade of life. And so how does that get us to a smart tummy tuck? If somebody has accumulated at the lower abdomen and upper abdomen, you can always debulk that, reduce the fat with liposuction. There's different ways to do liposuction. There's power assisted, there's ultrasound assisted, there's laser liposuction. I prefer power assisted liposuction. I feel like I have a lot of control with it and that's most important to me. So how do I get a better skin tightening result when we're doing this, if in fact they're older? So if you use equipment to, to tighten the skin, like body tight, like Morphe, say like Factora, you can get about 30% more skin tightening.
