Presentations

A Retrospective Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Renuvion in the Management of Skin Laxity to Improve Arm Tightening Following Liposuction

Pasquale G. Tolomeo, MD, DDS
Exquisite Aesthetics, Redondo Beach, CA

Using Renuvion with liposuction to apply plasma energy to the upper arm area may contribute to enhanced and noticeable outcomes in some patients long-term. Renuvion’s plasma energy device combined with liposuction may be beneficial to patients who have significant skin laxity that liposuction alone may not give adequate results. The short healing and recovery time, ease of device manipulation, quick surgery time, as well as its relevant safety, makes Renuvion an appealing supplemental treatment for those patients. The goal of future studies will be to increase the sample size and quantify the effects of Renuvion.
