THE PROCEDURE
J-Plasma (Renuvion) Skin Tightening in Istanbul
J-Plasma, also known as Renuvion, is a skin tightening technology that combines helium plasma with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The treatment is designed to improve skin contraction and firmness in selected areas where skin laxity is present.
At Estelux Istanbul, J-Plasma is performed by Op. Dr. Uğurlu — a board-certified plastic surgeon. It is commonly used alongside liposuction when a patient needs both fat reduction and additional skin tightening.
The appropriate treatment plan depends on your skin quality, degree of laxity, treatment area, medical history and aesthetic goals. A surgeon assessment is required to determine whether J-Plasma is appropriate for your case.
J-Plasma in Istanbul, Turkey
J-Plasma may be considered for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who want improved skin firmness without the larger incisions associated with surgical skin excision. For more significant excess skin, a surgical procedure such as a tummy tuck may be more appropriate.
Skin tightening
Uses plasma and radiofrequency energy to improve skin contraction and firmness.
Minimally invasive
Delivered beneath the skin through small access points rather than large skin-removal incisions.
Complements liposuction
Commonly considered alongside liposuction when both fat reduction and skin tightening are required.
Collagen remodelling
Thermal energy may support longer-term changes in skin firmness as collagen remodelling occurs.
Multiple treatment areas
Can be considered for selected areas of the body depending on the patient's anatomy and treatment plan.
Individual treatment plan
The surgeon determines the appropriate treatment area and technique based on each patient's needs.
WHICH OPTION?
J-Plasma vs Surgical Skin Tightening
J-Plasma and surgical skin removal address skin laxity in different ways. J-Plasma uses energy delivered beneath the skin, while procedures such as tummy tuck remove excess skin surgically.
When J-Plasma May Be Considered
J-Plasma may be considered when the main concern is skin laxity and the patient does not require significant skin excision. It can also be considered after liposuction when additional skin tightening is required.
When Tummy Tuck May Be More Appropriate
When there is substantial excess abdominal skin or abdominal muscle separation, a surgical procedure such as
tummy tuck in Istanbul
may be more appropriate.
