A member asked:

What's the most effective way to remove pregnancy induced stretch-marks & have a flat tummy without having a surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good Luck: You can try titan or thermage which both tighten skin with light to gently heat the deep layers but i don't think they are very effective. Certainly nothing can rival the results of a tummy tuck.
