J-Plasma Aka Renuvion Facial Resurfacing

3.5 years after Renuvion I am really happy with my results!

Kaitee
WORTH IT$4,000
The one scar has faded and is easily covered by concealer, the redness went away, and my skin is very youthful. At 66, I recently met new people in their 30’s who took me to be about their age! A friend of my husband’s commented on his “much younger wife”(I’m older). If I hadn’t done this resurfacing I’d be quite wrinkled by now.
I use a touch of concealer and a light spf powder/cream makeup by Physicians Formula daily. Never go outside without spf protection...do not want brown spots again!
Now gotta do something for my hands and neck....

So, here is the current state of my skin after 2 PRP and 1PRF treatments with Dermapen, fat transfer, and several steroid injections. It has been costly paying for this, and not convinced it is any much better. My scar continues to have periods of activity when it gets very sore and tightens, like right now, and makes my facial fat around it stick out in globs. Looks ok with good coverage makeup. Pretty disheartened though.

You had it from the outside, not the inside? Seems to me for skin shrinking it is better to apply the plasma from the inside. But probably hard to do for a whole face.

The face one is ONLY from outside, silly. Thanks Katie for the honest opinion. I figured it was just a crazy new gadget . I think I'll stick to a facelift. P.s. you do look good tho:)

Looking good!

The months passed and the redness faded. Have had two Dermapen with PRP treatments over face, neck and chest. PRP injected in scars directly as well. Has helped the scars, but really improved my neck! One more treatment to go. Will be adding some fat to fill in the lack of volume in places.
My skin looks and feels really good! It is back to normal thickness, the prickly-heat feeling has gone, a little concealer and light SPF makeup is all that I use on a daily basis.
Every day I touch my face in wonder...so smooth and tight. Would I do it again knowing that it isn't always a "perfect" outcome? Yes! Time is healing and every day it just is a bit better than the day before. My skin is just so much nicer overall than it was before.

You r welome! It has been almost 11 months and just a little pinkness under each eye and one spot toward my left ear. Cover up on them and sheer tinted SPF all I've been using. Continues to improve!
