What is Renuvion (Jplasma)?
Renuvion, also known as J-Plasma, is an advanced skin tightening and rejuvenation technology. This technology uses plasma energy to tighten and rejuvenate the skin. Renuvion targets the underlying tissues of the skin to provide a tighter and smoother appearance.
How Does Renuvion Work?
Renuvion combines helium plasma and radiofrequency energy. During the procedure, the device delivers helium gas and radiofrequency energy to the underlying tissues of the skin. This combination of energy instantly tightens the collagen and elastin fibers beneath the skin and stimulates further collagen production over time. As a result, the skin becomes tighter, smoother, and appears more youthful.
Advantages of Renuvion
1. Quick and Effective Results: Renuvion provides immediate visible results that continue to improve over time.
2. Minimally Invasive: This procedure is minimally invasive, meaning it does not require large surgical incisions. This leads to less pain, swelling, and a shorter recovery time.
3. Safe and Precise: The combination of helium plasma and radiofrequency energy works in a controlled and precise manner without damaging surrounding tissues.
4. Versatile Use: It can be used on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, abdomen, arms, and legs.
Who is Renuvion Suitable For?
Renuvion is suitable for almost anyone needing skin tightening and rejuvenation. It is ideal for middle-aged individuals, women experiencing post-pregnancy skin laxity, and individuals with skin sagging after weight loss. However, it is important to consult with your doctor to determine if you are an ideal candidate.
How is the Renuvion Procedure Performed?
1. Consultation: The first step begins with a consultation appointment. During this appointment, your skin concerns and goals are discussed, and a personalized treatment plan is created.
2. Anesthesia: General anesthesia is administered before the procedure to ensure you do not feel any discomfort during the treatment.
3. Application: The Renuvion device is inserted under the skin through a small incision, and plasma energy is applied. This procedure typically takes 1-2 hours.
4. Recovery: After the procedure, you may experience mild swelling and bruising, which usually subside within a few days. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days.
When Will Results Be Visible?
With Renuvion, immediate tightening and rejuvenation effects are seen. However, full results typically become more apparent within 3-6 months as collagen production increases.
Post-Procedure Care
It is important to take care of your skin after the procedure. By following your doctor’s instructions, you can expedite the healing process and achieve the best results. Generally, it is recommended to avoid strenuous physical activities and protect your skin from the sun after the procedure.
