Three Tips to Maintain Results After Renuvion® Skin Tightening

Loose skin is a common concern for many people, whether it's due to age, weight loss, or pregnancy. If you want to achieve firmer, more youthful contours but aren't interested in invasive plastic surgery, ask about Renuvion skin tightening at Altogether You Med Spa. This innovative treatment combines the power of helium plasma and radiofrequency energy to stimulate new collagen production — a protein that gives our skin firmness and elasticity.

Below, Dr. José Ortiz shares three tips to help you maintain your Renuvion results in Phoenix, AZ. Call for a consultation and learn more about Renuvion today.

1. Follow all post-treatment instructions

Many people may not understand how Renuvion works or why it requires post-treatment care. During the procedure, Dr. Ortiz will provide numbing medication and then insert a thin tube just under the skin. The tube releases helium gas and radiofrequency waves that combine to make plasma. Though Renuvion is considered minimally invasive, it still requires some downtime for recovery. Following our instructions is crucial for proper healing and optimum results.

Dr. Ortiz may recommend the following:

• Avoid strenuous exercise or activities until you have healed
• Keep the treated area clean and dry
• Wear compression garments to support the skin during healing
• Apply prescribed medications or creams as directed

2. Maintain a consistent weight

Many people are candidates for Renuvion because they've lost a significant amount of weight and are dealing with excess skin as a result. However, the best possible Renuvion results occur in individuals who have maintained a consistent weight for at least six months before treatment. This is because big weight fluctuations can impact skin elasticity and help reverse your outcomes.

Once Renuvion skin tightening is complete, it's important to continue leading a healthy lifestyle and maintaining a stable weight. Our team in Phoenix, AZ can provide guidance and support at every step. Here are some tips to get started:

• Eat a complete diet with fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins
• Stay hydrated by drinking water during the day
• Incorporate physical exercise into your week
• Get enough sleep to allow your body to repair and rejuvenate

3. Protect and nourish your skin

Sun exposure damages our tissue and causes it to lose elasticity, leading to premature aging and loose skin. After undergoing Renuvion, patients should protect their investment by wearing sunscreen daily. In fact, a comprehensive skin care routine can help improve overall skin health. Consider incorporating the following steps into your daily regimen:

• Cleanse the skin at the end of the day to remove dirt, oil, and impurities
• Exfoliate once or twice a week to remove dead or damaged skin cells
• Apply a gentle moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and nourished
• Using serums or creams with ingredients like vitamin C to promote collagen production
