Thanks for your question. I would recommend the J-Plazty Body skin tightening treatment to improve skin laxity and loose skin. The J-Plazty Body is a new procedure which uses cold plasma energy (J-plasma) under the skin to instantly tighten and shrink the treated area. Cold plasma energy is a cooler temperature than traditional lasers making it safer and more precise, while also being more effective than radiofrequency and ultrasound treatments. The J-Plazty Skin Tightening is minimally invasive and is done in-office with local anesthesia which allows you a quick recovery (only 1-2 days) so you can get back to taking care of your two children. I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a surgeon who specializes in plasma technology.  Thanks, Jack Zamora MD

Thanks for your question. We treat our patients with a new technique called J-Plazty Face and J-Plazty Body skin tightening which uses cold plasma energy (J-plasma) under the skin to tighten and shrink. Cold plasma has been used in the medical field for decades but it is just now being recognized in the cosmetic surgery industry for its safe, precise and flexible application. We can treat delicate areas, and thin skin and crepey skin without the risk of thermal damage. The plasma energy is applied on the underside of the skin and improves the skin laxity from the inside out. Not only is the skin instantly tighter, the quality is younger and healthier. The procedure can be performed on the face, neck or anywhere on the body and only takes an hour depending on the areas being treated. Our patients choose J-Plazty because they want a significant level of improvement without the downtime (only 1-2 days) and none of the risks associated with traditional surgery. I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a surgeon who specializes in plasma technology to learn more.  Thanks, Jack Zamora MD

Thanks for your question. I developed J-Plazty, the subdermal J-plasma treatment specifically for skin tightening of the neck and body.  We have performed hundreds of cases with excellent results and no complications. I train other surgeons on this new minimally invasive skin tightening technique which is becoming increasingly popular since no other laser, ultrasound or radiofrequency treatment can tighten skin this safely and effectively. We can treat the face, neck, and anywhere on the body where there is loose, crepey, sagging skin. My patients have seen incredible results with very minimal downtime (1-2 days). In my practice, the procedure is done in-office and we use local anesthesia so you are awake and able to recover quickly. There are tiny incisions made where the cold plasma device will be inserted and applied to the underside of the skin. Results are seen immediately and continue to improve as you heal. The J-Plazty Body Procedure takes about an hour and patients can expect initial tightness in the treated area, pain is minimal and can be lessened with an over-the-counter pain reliever. Patients wear a compression garment for improved comfort. Mild swelling and bruising can take one to two weeks to resolve, however most patients are able to resume normal activities as early as one day post procedure. I would recommend scheduling a follow up consultation with your surgeon to be sure you have all your questions thoroughly answered.Thanks, Jack Zamora MD

Thanks for your question. Although not your preferred solution, a lower eyelid procedure would give you the results you are looking for. This safe and very common procedure would eliminate the excess fat deposits under your eyes which are typically caused by genetics and the aging process. Eyelid surgery is one of the most common procedures performed because it is safe, effective, there is minimal downtime and a quick recovery. Our procedures are done in office with an incision in the lower lash line or inside the lid, and the fat deposits are removed or repositioned with patients back home in hours to recover. Treating lower eyelids with creams or dermal fillers is not a longterm solution, schedule a consultation with a surgeon who specializes in oculoplastics.
