J-Plasma is a surgical procedure to tighten loose skin around the body.
Predominantly, this is used for the tummy, inner and outer thigh area, knees,
chins and arms. It is one of the most revolutionary technologies to
date that integrates helium gas and radiofrequency energy to create a cold
helium plasma to help tighten and rejuvenate the skin.
J Plasma utilises a combination of helium gas and radiofrequency energy to create a targeted plasma stream. This plasma stream gently heats the underlying skin tissues, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin tightening. Unlike traditional lasers, J Plasma doesn’t directly ablate (remove) the skin’s surface layer.
J Plasma is a relatively quick procedure with minimal scarring This procedure can be performed as a stand-alone surgery but in the majority of cases, this is done in conjunction with liposuction to ensure a superior result. The technology is considered safe because of the accurate energy emission of radiofrequency from the J-Plasma machine. J-Plasma not only tightens the skin but also stimulates natural collagen production, meaning you will continue to see the benefits of the treatment for up to 6 to 9 months.
Although J-Plasma has shot to fame as a revolutionary skin tightening treatment, there are also many other potential benefits to the procedure, including:
J-Plasma’s versatility allows it to be used in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures to enhance overall results. Here are some compatible options:
J-Plasma can be combined with other surgeries, such as VASER liposuction, for maximum results. Liposuction extracts fat from specific areas of the body; however, after surgery, the skin may become loose where the excess fat has been removed. By combining liposuction with J-Plasma, not only is the stubborn fat removed, but the skin is then tightened, enhancing the effects of the treatment. The combination of these two brilliant procedures can achieve wonderful results for most parts of the body, including the face, neck, arms, chest, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. It leaves only very small scars and requires a short recovery time.
J-Plasma is suitable for both men and women with mild to moderate excess skin who want to tighten the skin and regain a more youthful appearance. J-Plasma is often sought after by patients who have loose skin due to ageing, weight loss, or pregnancy. Patients should be close to their ideal weight and in good overall health to undergo this procedure.
Your recovery following a J-Plasma procedure will depend on the size and location of the area treated, as well as your general health and well-being. The larger the area being treated, the more downtime will be needed. However, most patients can return to their usual daily activities after one week. It is normal for the area that has been treated to feel tight and experience some bruising and swelling. This should also subside within one week of your procedure. In addition, you may be asked to wear a compression garment to support the skin while it heals.
