Can I get Renuvion on my forearms?

Question

I have what I call old lady skin. My grandmother, mother and aunts. Had it. My skin is delicate and bruises very easily. Has anyone tried to use renuvion on this area. I am not sure if this would be considered off market use. I use Arnica but if I work in the yard or accidentally scrape then. It bleeds under the skin. I am a nurse and scrubbed in OR in plastics suite. I would be willing to do a spot test.

This treatment allows patients to gain the confidence to expose their toned arms. Traditionally, arm lift surgery is performed to address sagging on the upper arms. However, advances in minimally invasive procedures have allowed doctors the ability to provide their patients with alternatives to surgery.

I would suggest micro-needling with radiofrequency and then perhaps diluted Sculptra injections with the micro-needling with no heat later.  Both will be a series of treatments and safe in that area. You will have grid marks for at least one week in that area.

This would depend upon the evaluation by your physician after he evaluates you. Given the fact that you have a tendency to bruise or bleed you may need to be evaluated by a hematologist to ensure there is no abnormalities of your platelets or coagulation cascade. Yes renuvion can be used on the forearms. Good Luck

Though I personally do not perform Renuvion on the forearms , it can be done on that location . It is used as  sub dermal coagulation  to treat sagging skin and laxity , forearm skin that is thin and creepy would likely have minimal clinical improvement

Dear CG,
Renuvion is a plasma technology that can tighten the fibers under the skin, any where on the body.
Upper or lower arms are able to be treated with Renuvion to help with tightening skin to give much improved results, especially in combination with Vaser liposculpting.
