Renuvion for inner thighs?

Question

Is Renuvion good for tightening of the inner thighs? Is it worth it?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

renuvion is great for the inner thighs, but only in the right candidates. Please see an expert.You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best.  Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring.  Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods.  The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring.  This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face.  Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra.  If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty).  Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.  Dr. Emer.

Short answer is that yes, Renuvion can be a useful adjunct for skin laxity in the thighs.....for the right patient. Without photos or an in-person exam, it is hard to determine whether this is a good option for you.Hope this helps!Dallas R.

The treatment for inner thighs requires evaluation of degree of fat and skin. The fat is best removed using ultrasound assisted liposuction. Skin texture and amount of redundancy will then determine the appropriate treatment. For minimal to moderate skin redundancy, Renuvion skin tightening is most appropriate. For moderate to severe skin redundancy, you can consider a limited incision medial thigh tuck. A high definition body contouring specialist must be consulted to get a definitive recommendation. Please consider a virtual consultation with a high definition  specialist.
