Unsure if it will be ineffective due to excessive skin laxity - Is Renuvion/ Jplasma sufficient? (photos)

Renuvion/J-Plasma is a minimally invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten and lift loose or sagging skin. While it can be effective for mild to moderate skin laxity, it may not be sufficient for more severe cases where there is a significant amount of excess skin.
If you have excessive skin laxity, a surgical procedure like a armlift may be a better option. A armlift can remove excess skin and tighten underlying muscles, providing more dramatic and long-lasting results.
It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon who can evaluate your individual concerns and determine the best treatment plan for you. They can help you determine if Renuvion/J-Plasma or another treatment option is the most appropriate choice based on your unique needs and goals.

I have seen very good results with liposuction and Renuvion in women similar to you. I would suggest going with Renuvion. Later, if not tight enough, you can always do the excision. However, the long scar does show.

From your photos you will have the best outcome from a brachioplasty. Liposuction will remove some of the fatty tissue but you may still have lax hanging skin even with J Plasma. I've included a video on brachioplasty that I hope you find helpful.

Thank you for your question. Renuvion/Jplasma is a minimally invasive treatment that can provide effective skin tightening for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity. However, if you have excessive skin laxity, it may not be sufficient to achieve the level of tightness that you desire. In such cases, an arm lift procedure may be recommended instead. Based on your pictures, it will depend on your goals. If you want tight arms then a lift will be recommended. The best way to determine if Renuvion/Jplasma is right for you is to schedule a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon. Hope it helps.

In my over the Real Self posted photos opinion you need a brachioplasty. J-Plasma a waste of time in your case. Best to in person or virtual consult with.....

For patients with significant skin laxity, there is no substitute for proper skin reduction surgery.
From first-hand experience using Renuvion, a.k.a. JPlasma, I noticed zero skin tightening, and none of my patients noticed any significant difference.
Liposuction alone could explain all the results and some skin retraction, which happens from Liposuction inherently.
Delivering consistent quality, Liposuction results is more difficult than most people believe. Upper extremities are technically challenging, and finding plastic surgeons who truly mastered arm Liposuction is not easy.
Personally, I treat arms circumferencial. He typically blend Liposuction into the forearm. The procedure will create some skin contraction and most patients appreciate arm reductions with the arm in a down position. If you lift your arms out, you will still have skin laxity. A significant number of patients are apprehensive of having arm lift surgery. A.k.a. brachioplasty because it tends to leave a visible scar.
For that reason, the majority of patients put up with skin laxity and except quality liposuction as a fairly good compromise of a reasonable procedure giving some improvements. you can look at before and after pictures under photos on my profile on this website to see what arm Liposuction results can look like.
