Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. George Marosan is proud to offer the latest advancements in minimally invasive body contouring and skin tightening treatments with Renuvion (J-Plasma).
Overview
A new and exciting technology, Renuvion allows for significant improvement in skin laxity without having to undergo major excisional cosmetic surgery. Unlike traditional lasers, Renuvion blends the powerful properties of helium plasma with radiofrequency (RF) energy to produce a dual thermal effect that works under the skin for skin tightening and rejuvenation. It allows Dr. Marosan the ability to provide a dramatic outcome while using precision, control, and significant tissue shrinkage during treatment. Renuvion can be used alone or combined with another treatment, such as liposuction. It is commonly used on the arms, abdomen, back, thighs, and neck. To find out if you are a candidate for this innovative treatment, we invite you to call our Bellevue, WA plastic surgery center for more information and an in person consultation.
Ideal Candidates
Renuvion (J-Plasma) treats mild to moderate skin laxity and is used to help tighten the skin. Depending on the patient’s needs, it can be used alone or in combination with another procedure like VASER liposuction for optimal results. Candidates for this treatment generally have loose skin they wish to tighten, as well as moderate skin sag and wrinkling. It is common for patients who want visible tightening in the neck and arms, and works great for the abdomen, back bra rolls or back rolls, thighs and knees especially when combined with liposuction. This treatment is an alternative to excisional surgery in the patient who who does not want to have a scar or does not want an abdominoplasty. It is a great treatment of gynecomastia in older males with skin laxity and avoids an unsightly scar on the chest. Before recommending Renuvion, Dr. Marosan will perform a physical evaluation and skin assessment to determine whether this treatment will be a great, less invasive option for you.
Procedure Technique
Dr. Marosan uses Renuvion (J-Plasma) for skin tightening under the skin. Renuvion is designed to tighten the fibroseptal network deep to the skin’s surface.
Patients who wish to have this treatment alone can undergo Renuvion in our office surgery suite under local anesthesia with minimal oral sedation. For larger areas on the body or when combined with surgery, it will be performed under intravenous sedation.
Recovery
The downtime and recovery following a Renuvion (J-Plasma treatment can vary. Most of our Greater Seattle area patients will go back to normal activity within 3 – 5 days after treatment. A compression garment is worn post procedure.
If performed with a surgical procedure, a post-surgical garment should be worn for 6 – 8 weeks. Our medical team will provide precise aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. Renuvion delivers very fast results that steadily improve for the first several months after the procedure. This is one aspect that sets Renuvion apart from some of the other skin tightening treatments available today.
