- Skin Tightening Treatments
✨ Tighter, firmer stomach skin without surgery — the non-invasive way to shrink-wrap loose skin and feel confident in your clothes again.
How it works:
- Controlled heat energy is delivered deep into the skin, causing collagen fibres to contract and tighten immediately, while triggering fresh collagen production over the following months.
Who it's for:
- Anyone with loose, crepey, or sagging skin on the stomach after pregnancy or weight loss
- Skin that hasn't bounced back with exercise alone
- People wanting firmer skin without injections, surgery, or downtime
The benefits:
- Skin looks visibly tighter and smoother
- Improved confidence in fitted clothing and swimwear
- No needles, no scars, no recovery time
- Results build naturally over time
- Safe for all skin tones
What's included:
- Full consultation to assess your skin and goals
- Handheld device treatment with conductive gel
- 30–60 minutes of controlled thermal energy application
- Post-treatment guidance for home care
- Follow-up advice on maintenance scheduling
What to expect:
- 3–6 sessions recommended, spaced 1–2 weeks apart
- Immediate flash-tightening visible within hours

- Results last 6–12 months with maintenance
💡 This is the treatment to choose when skin laxity is your main concern and you want to avoid anything invasive.
Common questions
Is there any downtime?
There's usually no downtime at all. Your skin might look a bit flushed and feel warm for a few hours afterwards, but you can get straight back to normal life. Just skip saunas, hot baths and intense exercise for 24 hours to let the heat work properly.
Does it hurt?
It's quite comfortable — most people describe it as a warm, relaxing sensation, a bit like a hot stone massage. There's no need for numbing cream, and you shouldn't feel anything sharp or painful.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people need a course of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about 1 to 2 weeks apart. If you've got a wedding, holiday or big event coming up, it's worth starting at least 12 weeks beforehand so your results have time to fully develop and settle.
How long do the results last?
You'll notice a flash-tightening effect within hours, but the real results build over 3 to 6 months as fresh collagen develops. From there it typically lasts 6 to 12 months, depending on your age, skin quality and lifestyle, with maintenance sessions keeping it going.
Are there any side effects?
It's normal to have some redness, warmth and mild swelling in the treated area for a few hours afterwards. Rarely people notice temporary numbness or tingling. Very occasionally there can be burns or blistering if the device is held still too long, which is why proper technique matters.
Preparing for your appointment
- Drink plenty of water for 48 hours before — hydrated skin conducts heat better
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours — it can increase sensitivity and redness
- Skip intense exercise, saunas and hot baths the day before
- Remove all lotions, oils and self-tan from the treatment area
- Tell Bella about any metal implants, pacemakers or recent surgery in the area
- Avoid retinol and strong active skincare for 3 days beforehand
After your treatment
- Do not apply ice packs — the retained heat helps collagen build
- Avoid saunas, hot baths and intense exercise for 24 hours
- Keep skin cool and comfortable; loose clothing is best
- Drink water regularly to support collagen production
- Expect mild redness and warmth for a few hours — this is normal
- Moisturise gently if skin feels dry; no harsh products for 48 hours
Do not book if
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding
- You have a pacemaker or metal implants in the treatment area
- There is an active skin infection, rash or open wound on the stomach
- You have had recent surgery in the area
- You have diabetes with neuropathy or an autoimmune condition affecting skin healing
- You have a history of keloid scarring
- You are taking medications causing photosensitivity
- You have active cancer or are undergoing cancer treatment
