Tummy Tuck Alternatives: Other ways to trim down that belly

There are a number of tummy tuck alternatives out there for people hoping to trim down their midsection. Weight loss problems could easily be answered by maintaining a proper diet and exercising regularly. But losing weight is not as easy as that. Fortunately, there are still other ways to flatten your belly for people having a difficult time following the uphill route of exercise and dieting.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is a non-surgical tummy tuck alternative. It is performed by injecting vitamins and nutrients in order to eliminate or reduce cellulite. It enhances weight loss and removes sagging skin. Mesotherapy is also recommended by cosmetic surgeons for stretch marks, scars, and wrinkles.

How does mesotherapy trim down excess abdominal fats? This procedure is touted to reduce midsection fats by preventing the body from storing fats. It also speeds up the breakdown of existing fat tissues.

Mesotherapy is done by sessions with a cosmetic expert. On average, a patient can see noticeable results after three visits. However, there is no guarantee of permanent results. Exercise and proper nutrition should accompany mesotherapy in order to maximize its effects.

Thermage

Thermage is a non-surgical procedure that uses radio frequency in order to smoothen and tighten a selected area of the body. It is also touted to reduce the appearance of cellulites. Advocates of this method promise results in just one session. One session typically lasts 45 minutes for the face and 30 minutes for other parts of the body which includes the tummy. However, just like other cosmetic procedures thermage may pose unwanted effects such as dimpling or scarring.

Lipomassage

Lipomassage is a patented procedure by a company called Engermologie. It uses a special device that “massages” specific portions of the body in order to remove excess fat. It can be used on the abdomen to make it slimmer and crease-free.

Natural tummy tuck

This tummy tuck alternative promises results similar to surgical abdominoplasty minus possible side effects. It is done through a routine of abdominal exercises and low-calorie diet. The whole procedure must be followed strictly in order to achieve the desired result.
