Hi Moms,

I was wondering if anybody has tried any of the tummy tuck alternatives, like the Liposuction, or the non-sugical/non-injectible solution that you keep hearing about these days or the mineral wraps. If you have please let me know if these are effective or not? Are these painful or have any major side effects? Is there any problem if you want to get pregnant again. Please share your views. I have 2 kids, from ceasarean and have such a loose belly that some people even ask if I am pregnant again. We are not planning for another baby in the near future so would like to get my figure back, ready to try anything that can get rid of the loose skin.

What can I do next?

Hi,
My name is Jennifer and I work in Marietta. I am not sure your location but wanted to tell you what I do. I am a certified Endermologist. Endermologie is cellulite reduction and skin tightening. It is done with a machine which feels like a massage. The procedure is very good for you because of the increase of blood flow and stimulation of collogen beneath the skin. This will help your loose skin due to pregnancy. I would love the opportunity to discuss this with you if you are interested. My number is ###-###-#### and our website is www.headtotoebyarlene.com

Just wanted to tell you, the only thing that will get rid of
that loose skin is a tummy tuck. I tried the lipo dissolve and the normal lipo and still had to have a tuck to get rid of the loose skin. My tummy now looks better than it ever has, even better than when I was a teenager. So, if you really want to have a flat tummy , this is your only option.
P.S. You also do not want to have this done if you are planning on having more kids. It would be like throwing money away.

I am also interested in tummy tucks - what is the best procedure? Where did you get the procedure? How much was the procedure? Did they have liposuction along with the tummy tuck?
I am investigating this, as we speak and would love more information about this.

Thanks, J.

I am undergoing a treatment called Velashape. It is my alternative to the tummy tuck idea (cause I wanted one too). Velashape (sometimes called Velasmooth) is a new treatment with no side real side affects. I am doing it through American Laser Centers. They uisually have specials on it. I am still undergoing treatment, so I can not tell you about my results yet. I still have three more sessions to go. The results are instant though. After your treatments you should have a noticeable smaller tummy. Here is velashapes website-http://www.velashape.com/results
I hope this helps!

Hello, I have not had a tummy tuck but would recommend a new girdle on the market called Body Magic, trust me it works. It holds everything in stomach, butt, hips etc, and you drop 2-3 dress sizes, I never believed it until I saw a friend with it on and did not recognize it. It is a little pricey $168, but cheaper than the liposuction, also it helps with back pain.

Do not do a liposuction! I had a friend die a few days after she had this procedure. I do not know about the other procedures that you mentioned. I recently started doing situps daily to try to get rid of mine. Good luck!
