52, male. Does J-Plasma Remain After Weight Gain?

Question

52 year old male here. I had liposuction performed in 2021 with J-Plasma. The results we fantastic - stomach and "flanks" have never been more flat/shaped/contoured. I am 6-feet tall and was down to around 190 pounds at the time. I have gone up to about 222 pounds, but am in the midst of reigning that back in and losing weight as we speak to get back to at least 195. Does the effects of the J-Plasma remain in spite of the weight gain? Will I see the same results from that 2021 procedure after losing the weight again? Thanks!

The effects of skin tightening from renuvion typically last 5 years as the fibroseptal network is tightened .. this is the physiological effects of building collagen from the radiofrequency  energy which causes long term improvement. Changes in weight can add volume to tissue to actually support sagging skin .. the changes you saw in 2021 are slowly losing performance  as those fibroblast and collagen then was produced typically will have a 5 year life span not to mention you have aged since the initial treatment as we lose 1% of collagen per year but other factors involved too such as smoking , genetics , nutrition , hormonal status etc . If you lose weight expect to see more skin laxity than you had in 2021 . The renuvion  itself can be repeated for additional tightening
