RENUVION – MINIMALLY-INVASIVE SKIN TIGHTENING PROCEDURE
PLASTIC SURGERY DUBAI | 21 September 2024
Renuvion®, sometimes referred to as J-Plasma®, is a medical technique that uses radiofrequency (RF) radiation and helium plasma to precisely heat connective tissues just beneath the skin to encourage contraction, tightening, and shrinking of tissue. Through a thin, hand-held wand, the RF energy and helium plasma are concurrently released to produce an even application. The method leaves tissue with a striking but delicate look. The chin, neck, arms, breasts, chest, belly, inner thighs, lower thighs, and knees are the regions that Renuvion® treats most frequently.
Renuvion is a fantastic way to lessen the need for skin tightening surgery for patients. As we age, our skin becomes less elastic, which can occasionally result in looseness in undesirable places. Renuvion, when taken in isolation, can treat the body’s creases and superfluous skin to provide minor changes in muscle definition and shape. This technique can improve contouring outcomes and successfully minimise fine lines and skin folds when combined with liposuction. Renuvion is a one-time treatment that, in contrast to other skin tightening methods, instantly tightens skin and stimulates the creation of collagen, which might last for several months following the procedure.
Renuvion technology is frequently used to the face to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. The apparatus functions in the same manner, simultaneously releasing RF and helium gas to produce thermal heating and plasma. The Renuvion device is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that may be used on the face in fractionated, painted, or pulsed patterns. In order to create ports for the Renuvion device, Dr. Vigo makes three tiny incisions behind the chin and in each ear. If liposuction is necessary, it is done prior to starting the skin tightening procedure. The region is numbed before the gadget is carefully placed beneath the skin and turned on. The skin tightens and new collagen is formed as a result of the plasma beams’ interaction with the tissues.
If Renuvion® is determined to be the best course of action, Dr. Vigo will perform the operation in a cutting-edge clinic. Dr. Vigo makes tiny incisions in the tissue to insert the Renuvion® disposable probe after carefully identifying the treatment region or areas and administering the proper anaesthetic. The shrinking effect is induced in the tissue by precisely releasing helium plasma and radiofrequency radiation. Very thin dressings are placed, and the margins of the incisions are sealed with dissolvable stitches. The procedure is often carried out under general anaesthesia as a day case.
The soft tissue contracts as a result of the treatment, and this is frequently apparent right away. Over the course of the following six to nine months, as the body heals, the outcomes will get better. Incision lines will eventually disappear and post-surgical oedema will decrease. As you recuperate entirely following surgery, you should continue to feel more satisfied with your new appearance. It is crucial that you adhere to Dr. Vigo’s post-operative recommendations and follow-up appointments in order to get the best outcomes.
