Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
J Plasma resurfacing neck and stomach?
Renuvion Jplasma has to be used subdermally in the abdomen to get the tightening effect you are looking for
Feb 7, 2019
Hi. Thank you for your question. In theory, there’s no problem with using Renuvion for resurfacing in the abdomen, but the use is completely different as to the use in the face. When you use Renuvion as a resurfacing device you are treating the small wrinkles that develop, because new skin will arise without them. You get some tightening around the orbicular area (around the eyes) because the muscle is really thin and superficial.The fibroseptal network of the abdomen is large, thus, cannot …
Protection ports for J-Plasma/Renuvion? Is 22 insertions too many? Worried about irregu
No protection needed for insertion ports
Jan 10, 2019
Hi, you should check with your provider, but this technology does not require protection ports. It doesn’t burn on the skin. What you do need is some extra incisions to take the gas out while doing the procedure… So probably that’s why you’ve plan for a bit more incisions that with liposuction alone. 
J-plasma (with liposuction or without) causes more damage to the incision cuts?
No protection needed for insertion ports
Jan 10, 2019
Hi. We would need more information on your source, but the Renuvion hand piece delivers energy just thru the end of the handpiece. There’s no damage what so ever on the skin ports, with or without liposuction
Where is the safest place to place the butt implant?
The best place for butt implants is intramuscular
May 26, 2017
Hi. Thank you for your question. Current experience suggests the implant to be place in the intramuscular plane. It has less complications, and good coverage, so you get best results.Remember to always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to see if the procedure is good for you, or if you qualify for another type of procedure. Fat grafting to buttocks is a popular alternative, but not all patients qualify for it.
Mother of 2 looking to get a Tummy Tuck and BBL in the Dominican Republic. Is it risky
C-section doesn’t change approach
Feb 12, 2017
Thank you for your question. It’s pretty common to get an abdominoplasty after a c-section. In my practice having a vertical scar caused by a previous c-section is one of the main reasons why a patient comes to my office looking for this procedure. So the history of previous c section alone (considering that they didn’t were complicated) shouldn’t prevent you from getting the procedure done. Obviously a through evaluation by a certified plastic surgeon is the only way to determine which p…
What is the anesthesia for the surgery in the Dominican Republic? I heard they give epi
Epidural is the most common
Feb 5, 2017
Hi, thank you for your question. Indeed, epidural anesthesia is the most common type of anesthesia given to the plastic surgery patients for body contour procedures in the Dominican Republic. Nevertheless, take into account that the final decision about the type of anesthesia to be given to any patient is decided exclusively by the anesthesiologist after a through evaluation of the patient medical record, and their physical examination. Remember to always consult with a certified plastic …
Can you get a tummy tuck if your BMI is 33.5?
Surgery with BMI below 35
Apr 22, 2016
Hi. Thank you for your question. As a general rule, your BMI has to be at 35.0 or below to qualify for surgery. But you also need a complete physical exam and lab work, as a cardiovascular checkup to be cleared for surgery. So generally speaking, yes, by the BMI alone you qualify for surgery, but be sure to speak to a board certified plastic surgeon to complete your assessment before surgery and get a more personalized response of your case.
