The Short Answer
FlexSculpt® liposuction plus targeted tightening. Traditional tummy tuck: muscle repair with wide skin excision. That is the difference that matters most, and everything below is the detail underneath it. Neither is better in the abstract — they solve different problems, and the one that suits you depends on what your assessment actually shows rather than on which sounds more advanced.
