FAQ
Is one Renuvion treatment enough, or will I need several?
Dr. Oh’s answer
In most cases, we plan for one treatment. The fibrous tissue under the skin contracts right after treatment, then new collagen forms over the following months as the shape settles. We assess the result at about 6 months.
Lifting that heats from the skin surface has to pass through the outer skin, so it’s hard to deliver strong energy, and it often takes several sessions. Renuvion heats directly under the skin, so we deliver what’s needed in one treatment.
In the clinical study of the neck and under the chin, patients were followed for 6 months after a single treatment, and 82.5% of the 65 patients were judged to have improvement in loose skin. The assessment was made by reviewers looking at photos that didn’t show which were taken before or after treatment.
If your skin was very loose, or if the improvement at 6 months is less than you hoped, we’ll talk with you at a consultation about further treatment or other options.
