Unwanted fat deposits often cannot be completely reduced despite a healthy diet and regular exercise. In our practice, we have observed that although classic liposuction has been a tried and tested procedure for decades, it has certain disadvantages depending on the method used: greater tissue damage, longer healing times or uneven results.
MicroAire and Renuvion complement each other perfectly: while MicroAire gently removes fat, Renuvion visibly tightens the tissue. The combination offers natural results, rapid recovery and is an attractive alternative to traditional incision-based procedures.
At Plastic Surgery Pyramid, we therefore rely on the combination of MicroAire (vibration-assisted liposuction) and Renuvion (helium plasma + radiofrequency). This combination unites two goals in one operation: removing fat and tightening the skin. It is currently one of the most advanced procedures for aesthetic body shaping. We have had very positive experiences with it and can see this in the high level of satisfaction among our patients.
MicroAire is a vibration-assisted liposuction procedure. The fine vibrations of the cannula allow the fatty tissue to be gently loosened and suctioned off in a controlled manner. Compared to conventional manual or ultrasound/laser-assisted liposuction, the surrounding tissue is subjected to less stress. This results in less swelling and bruising, and the healing time is often shorter. The result looks more even and natural - especially in sensitive areas of the body.
Renuvion uses a combination of helium plasma and radio frequency energy. The technology is guided under the skin and heats the tissue from the inside in a controlled manner. This causes the tissue to contract immediately and at the same time stimulates collagen formation - for a lasting tightening effect. The big advantage: no additional skin incisions, no scars, and skin tightening surgery can often be avoided.
MicroAire removes the fat in a very targeted manner, Renuvion tightens the skin from the inside directly afterwards. The result: defined contours and smooth skin, without additional surgery and with a shorter downtime.
The method is not suitable for patients with excess or significantly sagging skin - surgical tightening may be more suitable in this case.
