Is J Plasma (in conjunction with liposuction) safe for Asian skin?

Question

Is there a risk of burning or permanent hyperpigmentation? Interested in getting subdermal Jplasma treatment (in conjunction with liposuction). I have very fair Asian skin.  1) Is there a risk of burning Asian skin? 2) Is there a risk of permanent hyperpigmentation of Asian skin? 3) What are the results of your southeast Asian clients? Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Renuvion produces a dramatic yet gentle effect on treated tissue because of its dual thermal effect from the combination of J Plasma and RF technology. In the hands of meticulous and highly experienced Plastic/Cosmetic Surgeons, the risk of burning and hyperpigmentation is nominal as this system delivers energy with high precision with minimal thermal spread. I have personally seen how delighted my clients are with their results after doing Renuvion! Hope this helps.
Best,

Dr. Babak Moein

Hi themysterywoman,
  
J Plasma is safe for all skin types and ethnicity. However, as with any procedure, you always run the risk of burning and hyper pigmentation when using a laser. When used in the hands of trained professionals, it becomes nearly impossible to burn a patient with J Plasma's patented, state-of-the-art technology.

Hello, great question. I have use renuvion multiple times under Asian skin without any complications. The skin contracts and tightens well over time b

Thanks for your question. No matter the skin type you have, pigmentation problems after this procedure are very uncommon. It's not impossible, but if we follow the established parameters, heating the skin to levels that would cause a burn (or damage to the pigment cells - melanocytes) would be very rare. I hope that helps you. Best wishes

Yes, Renuvion (aka jplasma) can be used internally after Vaser Liposuction on all skin types with minimal risks in skilled hands.Facial resurfacing externally with Renuvion, however, should be used with caution in patients with over Fitzpatrick type 3 skin.Best. Dr Brecht Seattle, Wa

Does Renuvion just tighten skin and/or actually remove excess skin long term?
