Many people work hard to eat well and stay active but still struggle with areas of stubborn fat or loose skin. Whether it’s the lower abdomen, love handles, thighs, or under the chin, these concerns often resist even the most dedicated efforts. At Pacifica Cosmetic Surgery Center, we offer a powerful solution that combines advanced liposuction with Renuvion skin tightening to sculpt and firm the body for smoother, more defined results.

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes localized fat deposits through a small cannula inserted under the skin. Using gentle suction, fat is permanently removed from areas such as:

• Abdomen
• Flanks (love handles)
• Thighs
• Back and bra roll
• Chin and jawline
• Arms

It’s not a weight loss method, but rather a tool for contouring and reshaping areas that haven’t responded to lifestyle changes. Liposuction offers dramatic changes in body proportion and silhouette with long-lasting results.

The Missing Piece: Skin Tightening with Renuvion

One of the challenges after fat removal is skin laxity. Once the fat is gone, the skin may not fully retract, especially in patients with reduced skin elasticity due to aging or weight fluctuations. This is where Renuvion technology comes in.

Renuvion (also known as J-Plasma) uses a unique combination of radiofrequency energy and cold helium plasma to contract tissue beneath the skin. Delivered through the same tiny incisions used for liposuction, Renuvion heats the subdermal tissue in a controlled, precise manner, causing an immediate tightening effect and continued collagen remodeling over time.

What sets Renuvion apart:

• Tightens skin from the inside without large incisions
• Stimulates natural collagen production
• Enhances liposuction results without the need for excision
• Little to no added downtime

Why Combine Liposuction and Renuvion?

Liposuction removes volume. Renuvion tightens the skin. Together, they create a more sculpted, youthful appearance that neither treatment could achieve alone. This powerful combination addresses both fat and laxity—two key components in effective body contouring.

This dual approach is especially beneficial for:

• Post-pregnancy abdominal contouring
• Arm and thigh sculpting with minimal sagging
• Back rolls or bra fat areas
• Double chin refinement
• Mild to moderate skin laxity without the need for skin excision

What to Expect from the Procedure

Liposuction with Renuvion is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia depending on the area treated. Most patients experience mild to moderate soreness for a few days and can return to work within a week. Compression garments help support the skin and encourage optimal healing. While some improvement is visible right away, final results continue to develop over several months as the skin tightens and new collagen forms.
