Advanced Skin Tightening at Montilla Plastic Surgery

Renuvion is an innovative skin tightening procedure that tightens loose skin with minimally invasive techniques. This treatment uses a technologically advanced combination of waves and heat to bring the skin closer to the underlying muscles, resulting in a firmer appearance, with improvements immediately visible and improving with time.

How does Renuvion work?

Initially developed to combat loose skin following a liposuction procedure, Renuvion works by bringing your skin closer to your muscle by shortening the strands of tissue that bind them. The tightening effect is accomplished with the help of helium and RF (radio frequency) energy or plasma.

The RF energy electrifies the tendons, heating them, causing them to contract. This heat is then balanced by helium, which provides a cooling action without negating the positive effects of the plasma. This procedure is also referred to as J Plasma or J Plasty, paying tribute to the cutting edge scientific technology that makes it possible.

What is the recovery like?

Patients undergoing a Renuvion treatment will find recovery to be extremely tolerable. Because it relies on energy technology and only requires a small incision, there is little to no downtime needed after the procedure. You will see the results immediately, and your skin will continue to tighten in the weeks and months ahead.

That said, each patient and procedure is unique. That is why it is so essential to work with an experienced Renuvion doctor. Your treatment must be performed with superior skills and experience to achieve the look you envision.

Does Renuvion leave scars?

When you come to Montilla Plastic Surgery for hair restoration, we will draw your blood in our facility as though you were having lab work done. We use a closed, sterile centrifuge system to spin the blood, separate out the platelets, and remove any substance that could interfere with tissue regeneration and healing. Platelet-rich plasma is prepared containing 3 times the normal concentration of platelets in the blood.

The incisions needed to complete a Renuvion treatment is short. Generally measuring between one and two inches, you do not need to worry about long, visible scars. Moreover, the plasma stream created will have its temperature neutralized by the helium. The treatment tightens your skin and produces little to no swelling.

What areas of the body can Renuvion be used on?

Renuvion has successfully been used on almost every part of the body. Whether you are looking to tighten the skin around your jawline or lift and shape your buttocks, Renuvion is a non-invasive and safe way to achieve remarkable improvements in skin quality and firmness. Some common areas patients have received successful treatment on include:

Arms
Outer and inner thighs
Chin
Jawline
Buttocks
Abdomen
Hips
Waist
Knees and calves

These are the most common areas treated, but Renuvion is proven to be effective at tightening skin on almost every area of the body. Due to its minimally invasive nature, it can restore a wide variety of face and body locations without risk or scarring.

Am I a candidate for Renuvion?

Renuvion is a minor, minimally invasive procedure. If you are in good health and are looking for a way to tighten loose skin without scarring or the recovery time that accompanies skin removal, you are likely a great candidate for Renuvion as a stand-alone treatment.

Renuvion can be a great add-on to other treatments as well. Liposuction and other body or face contouring procedures can produce impressive results when Renuvion is applied post-surgically, to tighten any remaining loose skin. Whether you are considering it as a stand-alone treatment or as a pairing with another procedure, our medical professionals would be happy to discuss your unique treatment needs and concerns.
