Are you frustrated with your attempts to achieve the perfect body, despite putting in a lot of effort? This is a common issue that patients bring to Haute Beauty expert Dr. Frank Lalezar's office. Many people opt for liposuction and other body sculpting procedures to enhance their appearance, but some patients struggle with loose skin that won't tighten up, even with the removal of fat. In the past, skin removal was the only option for addressing this problem, but it often resulted in noticeable and unsightly scars. Fortunately, there is now a new technology called Renuvion that, when used in combination with our liposculpting procedures, can remove fat and tighten skin at the same time, using minimally invasive incisions. This can help you achieve the body of your dreams without the drawbacks of traditional skin removal techniques.
What is Renuvion?
As we age, the collagen fibers that connect the skin to muscles gradually break down and stretch out. This process can result in loose and sagging skin. Renuvion is a minimally invasive device that treats the collagen fibers underneath the skin, contracting them and triggering the neocollagenesis process, which rebuilds collagen. The treatment smooths and contours the skin, resulting in an overall younger and tighter-looking appearance.
How does Renuvion work in combination with other procedures?
During liposuction, fat is removed from the deeper layers of skin and tissue to improve one's figure. However, this can lead to skin laxity. To address this issue, Renuvion is used to tighten the skin and achieve the desired result. The Renuvion wand is inserted just under the skin through the same incisions used for liposuction. The wand delivers a unique combination of radiofrequency energy and helium plasma directly to the collagen-rich tissue that is a key source of loose skin.
Can combining Renuvion with other procedures affect the final results?
Combining Renuvion with other procedures such as liposculpting can significantly impact the final results. When fat is removed through procedures like liposuction of the abdomen, back, or chin, excess skin can be left behind. However, combining liposculpting with Renuvion can help address this issue. Not only does the volume of fat decrease, but the skin tightening provided by Renuvion helps to further sculpt the body, resulting in a smoother and more toned appearance. This combination approach can help to achieve the desired results more effectively.
How do you incorporate skin tightening into your practice?
We have developed an innovative body contouring procedure called FinesseSculpt, which combines novel liposuction technology, Dr. Lalezar's innovative liposculpting technique, and Renuvion technology to optimize your results and give you the best possible outcome. Dr. Lalezar carefully evaluates your anatomy to determine how much fat should be removed and from where, and if necessary, uses fat grafting to enhance other parts of your body. Skin tightening with Renuvion is also employed to address any skin laxity. This comprehensive approach allows us to achieve natural yet profound results tailored to your unique needs and goals.

How long does the combined procedure take?
Adding Renuvion treatment to our liposculpting procedure typically requires an additional 5-10 minutes of operating room time to achieve the desired result. Mild bruising and soreness may be expected following the procedure, but patients generally report minimal or no pain, even immediately after the procedure. The recovery process is usually quick and easy, and most patients are able to resume their normal activities within a few days.
How long do the results of the combined procedure typically last?
Renuvion is a single treatment that produces dramatic results, which may begin to be noticeable within days or weeks and continue to improve throughout the healing process. With proper postoperative care and maintenance, the results can last a minimum of 5 years. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can help to prolong the results even further. Following the recommendations of your surgeon and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help to ensure that you enjoy the benefits of Renuvion for years to come.
What type of follow-up care is required after the combined procedure?
The postoperative treatment following treatment with Liposculpting and Renuvion is essentially the same as with Liposculpting alone. It is important to wear your compression garment as instructed by your surgeon, undergo lymphatic massages as recommended, and restrict exercises or heavy lifting for at least 4 weeks to allow for proper healing and optimal results.
