Will J-Plasma/Renuvion make a big enough difference for my loose skin? (Photo)

Question

I had lipo 360 over a year ago and for the most part, I'm super happy. I do have some loose skin that is not noticeable if I stand or sit normally but if bend down or slouch, you see it. I honestly can live with it because I'm not going to be slouching or bending over all the time, but if I can make it better without a tummy tuck, I am willing to get it tightened. I have pictures of what it normally looks like and what it looks like when I slouch.

Renuvion helps improve skin laxity by contracting the fibroseptal network between the skin and muscle. In your specific case, you would possibly need some additional liposuction and or the use of Vaser to break up scar tissue and then have renuvion to the selected areas. With this approach, you could get up to a 30% improvement in your skin laxity.

It's great to hear you're happy with your lipo 360 results. To address the loose skin, Renuvion could be a suitable option for skin tightening without undergoing a tummy tuck. However, since you've previously had liposuction, there may be scar tissue in the area, which can complicate further procedures. In such cases, it might be necessary to redo Vaser Liposuction along with Renuvion. The Vaser technique can help to break down and remove scar tissue, and then Renuvion can be used to tighten the skin. Keep in mind that undergoing liposuction again can have its own set of risks and considerations, especially in areas with scar tissue.

Great series of posted photos. I recommend you understanding your issues are to tightening abdominal skin. The best option is the J-Plasma treatment under light general anesthesia. But the "RISKS" vs "BENEFITS" scale is leaning in the 50 vs 50 ranges, meaning your outcomes could be better but they could be worse. Is it worth these risks and the costs (fee $8,000!).
