Plasma Energy

The Renuvion body lift and skin tightening device is designed to deliver cold plasma energy, which is produced by a combination of helium gas and radiofrequency (RF) energy. As helium is considered a very stable gas, it is possible to ionize it at low levels of energy, making it precise, flexible, and safe. Cold plasma is colder than lasers and, as a result, involves minimal risk of damage to the treated tissue. These elements of cold plasma make it a treatment of choice for many patients today who want to minimize their risk, discomfort, and downtime for body sculpting.

Candidacy

Renuvion body lift and skin tightening procedure may be best suited for people who have mild to moderate loose skin. Their skin laxity and uneven body contours could have occurred due to aging or significant weight loss. Some candidates may have previously receive liposuction surgery or other non-surgical body contouring procedures, and may be looking for additional toning, sculpting, or tightening.

Procedure

Renuvion body lift med spa procedure can be completed in about one to two hours. The treatment provider will use local anesthesia to numb the affected sites, and place small incisions. Through the incisions, they will apply the Renuvion device sub-dermally to deliver cold plasma energy into the targeted tissue layers. This will instantly shrink, tighten and firm the tissue from within. Patients can notice the benefits of this treatment almost immediately, but the effects will continue to improve over time. The tissue stimulation with cold plasma energy will trigger the production of new collagen fibers for smoother, volumized skin, and more sustainable and natural looking results.

Recovery

Most patients can return to their normal routine or go back to work in about two to three days. They can resume their fitness regimen and exercise in about three weeks. The provider may prescribe a few pain meds initially to keep the patient comfortable after the treatment. The treated areas of the body will continue to remodel over the next several months for more youthful results.

CO2 Fractional Laser for Acne Scars, Facial Wrinkles, and Skin Tightening

People experience some changes in their body or on their face as they mature. For some, teenage years might be focused on the problems of dealing with acne and other similar skin problems resulting from hormonal changes in the body. On the other hand, people above the age of 35 may start noticing skin issues such as wrinkles and sagging of facial skin. At times, the acne developed in teenage years leaves behind scars that may not react to natural or over the counter acne treatments.

CO2 Fractional laser treatment

CO2 fractional laser treatment is generally used for treating acne scarring, pigmentation of skin, wrinkles and facial lines and chloasma. It is a non-intrusive procedure in which a device is used to deliver a beam of carbon dioxide laser. The laser beam targets a fraction or specific area of the skin which is divided into thousands of microscopic zones to make the treatment focused and powerful. This treatment has revolutionized other anti-aging treatments and is also extremely effective for treating skin damaged by sun rays. Earlier there were two kinds of skin treatment options that were offered to the patient, namely ablative and non-Ablative. The ablative laser treatment principally focuses on the skin cells present right on the surface or the epidermis, whereas the non-ablative laser treatment deals with treating the middle layer of skin (dermal collagen). CO2 fractional laser treatment comes as a connector that fills the gap between these two treatments as it works on both the surface (epidermal) and middle layer (dermal) of skin. Dr. Bijan Farah, Medical Director, at Rejuvenate Medical Spa, specializes in aesthetic surgeries using latest processes and technology. He has over 35 years of experience as a physician treating complicated medical conditions, providing all kinds of anti-aging solutions at his med spa.If you stay in or around the areas of Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, CA, you can easily reach out to Dr. Bijan Farah with your skin problems.

How is the treatment done?

CO2fractional laser procedure involves a pre-treatment analysis for achieving effective results. It is important for the patient and doctor to have a detailed discussion pointing out the areas to be targeted for the CO2 laser treatment. This enables the doctor to develop a customized treatment for meeting the specific needs of the patient. Once the patient has washed and cleaned the facial area, an anesthetic cream is applied on the targeted areas for treatment. The effect of this cream is felt in about 40-60 minutes. After this, a gliding gel is applied on the areas to be treated. The purpose behind the application of gliding gel is than it enables the laser to lay down in a uniform MTZ pattern. The treatment lasts for about thirty minutes. With this treatment, the old and damaged skin is naturally replaced by a layer of healthy and fresh skin giving the face a youthful appearance. This skin improving procedure is quite painless and also extremely quick.
