Is there a solution for belly sagging without surgery?

>> The pharmaceutical industry is increasingly investing in treatments to prevent aging and sagging. Discover the most modern treatments to avoid the need for an abdominoplasty! Many people complain about sagging in the abdomen, especially women who have had babies and those who have entered menopause. People who have lost a lot of weight also struggle with the problem; the fact is that until recently there were treatments, but they were not very effective, and most of these individuals underwent surgery to improve the appearance of the area. Starting at the age of 30, we begin to decrease collagen production. As a result, the skin starts to lose its firmness and support. According to orthomolecular doctor Jordana Jantorno, there are now highly effective treatments that replenish lost collagen and stimulate its production in the area. "Today we even work with PDO threads in the abdomen. They stimulate collagen, treating sagging. They can be used alone or combined with other technologies, such as laser machines and other collagen stimulants, like calcium hydroxyapatite, polylactic acid, and it comes in last in the treatment, as if it were a refinement, giving the final touch," she said. The doctor stated that there are several protocols that can be followed. She defines each treatment according to the needs of each patient. Biomedical professional César de Alencar mentioned that a treatment that has been gaining enormous adherence is Sculptra, which is a biostimulator that stimulates the natural production of the body's own collagen, helping to restore the firmness and support of the skin. "This is an inside-out treatment that stimulates the natural production of the body's own collagen. On average, 3 sessions are performed, and the results last for about 25 months. I recommend that after this initial treatment, a new session be done every year," he said. Another treatment that César mentioned as well-received and yielding excellent results is fractional radiofrequency. "It is done with micro needles; they are the means used to emit the radiofrequency. It is not micro-needling; it is different. Fractional radiofrequency is done through radiofrequency that stimulates collagen and promotes cellular renewal in the skin, generating excellent results. It is important to mention that the procedures will help with texture, sagging, and skin quality, but they will not remove excess skin; that can only be done with surgery. The treatments improve sagging and skin quality, giving a better appearance to that excess skin and making it less or not perceptible at all. And what about postpartum? After the baby is born, a woman's body begins its recovery process, and returning to normal, that is, to the state after childbirth, will not be like her pre-pregnancy state, but it will be a new body that has gone through the gestational period and childbirth, presenting an abdomen that looks empty, sagging, and still enlarged, with wrinkled and sagging skin, leading to dissatisfaction with her body and an increasingly early search for aesthetic treatments. According to aesthetician Natália Schwanz, three-dimensional sonophoresis (ultrasound + Aussie current) is the combined, non-invasive therapy indicated for treating sagging in the postpartum period, also acting on localized adiposity, promoting lipolysis and improving circulation, reducing measurements and enhancing body contour, since this is a time when the body is still undergoing physiological and psychological changes in addition to the breastfeeding process; therefore, invasive treatments are not recommended at this time.
