oday, there are two novel machines available for minimally invasive skin tightening called Renuvion versus BodyTite. The first machine is called Renuvion and made by Apyx medical and utilizes a combination of Helium plasma and unipolar radiofrequency energies. The second machine is called Bodytight and made by In mode and uses bipolar radiofrequency energy.
Ever wonder how to get an innie belly button with a tummy tuck? Tummy tucks have been traditionally plagued by the appearance of an aesthetically unappealing belly button created in the middle of the abdomen. As a tummy tuck revision center, I see suboptimal belly buttons weekly. The most common concern is the belly button incision line ring that is too large and visible as a target over the front surface of the belly.
Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH) describes the development of localized fat growth in areas previously treated with Coolsculpting cryotherapy. Patients are routinely seen at our office who have observed paradoxical overgrowth of fat and the subsequent bulge in the exact area that was previously treated with cryotherapy.
Please see the excised area demonstrating hyperproliferation of fat in the localized area of cryotherapy when compared to adjacent fat layers.
Buttock augmentation is an excellent alternative to the fat transfer augmentation in two patient populations. The first patient population that benefits from this include patients that do not have adequate fat reserves.
Without any fat to harvest, it is intuitive that a fat transfer would not be possible! The second patient population that benefits include patients that desire maximum central buttocks projection.
30-year-old female following her BBL and high definition liposuction 360 procedure. Beware of yelp for choosing your plastic surgeon, patients should consider the plastic surgeon’s website and social media. Why you Should Beware of Yelp for Choosing your Plastic Surgeon At face value, yelp seems to be a reputable review site. Please,…
This 33-year-old male underwent scarless skin tightening with Renuvion and VASER on arms.
Scarless skin tightening has revolutionized the cosmetic surgery body contouring world. Scarless skin tightening has been made possible through a process called subdermal coagulation that describes the contraction of collagen molecules located in the deeper skin layer as well as underlying fibroseptal network(tissues that create a net-like web made of collagen that help keep the skin integrity).

Typically, VASER allows for comprehensive (90 to 95%) fat removal rather than just partial fat removal (40 to 50%). Due to this high capacity of fat removal, until recently VASER liposuction patients were selected carefully to avoid patients with loose skin who could be at risk of postoperative deformity of skin redundancy.
With the advent of VASER tummy tuck, minimal to moderate skin redundancy detected can be managed with a mini tummy while simultaneously sculpting the abdomen with VASER technology. Great care must be taken to avoid any undermining of tissues that are being liposuctioned. This will ensure appropriate skin vascularity.
Ultrasound-assisted liposuction and appropriate patient selection are critical to achieving these results. Moreover, the clients have witnessed these results. If you live in the area, you can have the opportunity to see high definition liposuction in Newport Beach patients routinely at our office.
This is because of our high definition liposuction in Newport Beach patients must complete a minimum of 5 lymphatic messages during the first 10 days following surgery. If you live in Newport Beach and are considering the contouring then you should consider making a consultation at our satellite office at 2001 Westcliff Avenue, Suite 206.
This is why absolute, uniform fat removal was not possible, since, after removal of the majority of fat cells, the fat cells that were no longer held in position could not be drilled out. The analogy I use is the small punching bag, i.e. speed bag, that boxers use to do rhythmic speed punches which oscillate back and front with each punch.
This is how the fat cell that is no longer tethered behaves. As the cannula strikes it, the fat cell just moves out and then returns back down without being removed. In contrast, advanced liposuction techniques employ ultrasound-assisted liposuction to melt the fat first which then dramatically changes the dynamics of fat removal.
