Skin tightening
Sagging tissue - caused by major weight fluctuations, genetics or the ageing process - can lead to excess skin and tissue. Excess skin on the upper arms, thighs and stomach is particularly disturbing.
Tummy tuck/abdominoplasty
Tummy tucks are most frequently requested. For example, women who have had multiple pregnancies, possibly even twin pregnancies, may have a corresponding need. The skin has been stretched so often and to such an extent that it no longer recedes. Skin tightening operations can also be accompanied by prior liposuction.
Renuvion® technology is a new method of tightening the skin in various areas of the body. The technique is based on a combination of helium gas and radio frequency, which generates a plasma jet. This plasma jet is inserted under the skin using a cannula and the connective tissue is briefly heated several times by the plasma jet. This causes the collagen to contract strongly and at the same time stimulates new collagen growth, resulting in the visible tightening effect. This method is often performed in combination with liposuction, but can also be carried out purely as a tightening operation.
A body lift is indicated if there is excessive tissue sagging in different parts of the body at the same time, i.e. the abdominal wall, hips, buttocks and thighs. This is usually the case after massive weight loss.
