What Is J-Plasma Renuvion? | Treat Loose or Sagging Skin

What’s This J-Plasma® Renuvion System All About?

/in /by

Have you heard about the latest treatment for skin laxity? The J-Plasma® Renuvion System is a revolutionary new minimally-invasive treatment that can be used to tighten and rejuvenate loose skin just about anywhere on the body.

This FDA-approved treatment uses a combination of helium gas and radiofrequency (RF) waves to create cool plasma. This plasma is tightly controlled and targeted to ablate soft tissues beneath the skin, resulting in safe and effective skin tightening. It’s very similar to laser resurfacing procedures, but without the heat that can damage surrounding tissues.

How Renuvion Works

Renuvion works under the skin. A thin handheld device containing a thin, metal tube called a cannula (the same kind of tube used in liposuction), is inserted under the skin through minuscule, strategically placed incisions. The plasma flows through the device to heat and then cool the targeted treatment area, the helium in the process causes the skin to contract and stimulates collagen production. Results are immediately noticeable due to the contracting properties of the helium.

Local anesthesia is used to eliminate any discomfort from the incision. Renuvion can be used in conjunction with other treatments such as liposuction or it can be used as a standalone treatment for loose skin. While skin will continue to age over time, results are as close to permanent as you can get.

What Makes A Good Candidate?

The Renuvion System is used on men and women who want to treat loose or sagging skin but don’t want to go through a facelift procedure or another more invasive surgery. The system can be used in all of the most common problem areas:

  • Abdomen
  • Arms
  • Back
  • Buttocks
  • Face and forehead
  • Flanks or sides
  • Hips
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Legs, including knees and calves
  • Neck

Results Are Immediate And Improve Over Time

Patients immediately notice firmer, tighter skin after a J-Plasma® treatment, and improvements continue over time as collagen production increases to firm and rejuvenate the treated area. Since the treatment is minimally-invasive, there is very little downtime or recovery time and the pinhole sized access points are not noticeable thanks to strategic placement and their very, very small size.

Results are as close to permanent as it is possible to get! Your skin will continue to age naturally, but it should not reach the point of laxity that it had before treatment. This is an extremely safe and effective way to address loose skin and turn back the clock without the need for invasive procedures or surgery.

J-Plasma® Renuvion | Skin Resurfacing | Helium Facelift

J-Plasma® Renuvion System Tightens Skin Without Surgery

/in /by

We are very excited to offer the J-Plasma® Renuvion System at EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa! This revolutionary new treatment offers immediately noticeable skin tightening and resurfacing without the cost, discomfort and can work on your forehead, face, neck, breast, abs, flanks, thighs, and arms. It’s a safe and effective way to tighten loose skin using advanced helium plasma technology.

Transform Your Skin’s Appearance Immediately 

The J-Plasma® Renuvion System uses radio frequency (RF) technology and helium gas to tighten and refresh skin from beneath the surface. RF energy waves combine with helium to instantly shrink skin from the inside. This system is full of impressive benefits…where do we start?

  • It works for everyone. One of the most impressive benefits has to be the fact that it works on everyone. Anyone who undergoes a J-Plasma® Renuvion treatment will see an improvement in skin tone and tightening, it’s just a matter of how much improvement is seen.
  • It tightens and resurfaces the skin. This procedure is one of the only treatments that provides skin tightening and resurfacing benefits. We’ve heard it referred to as “hitting the reset button on your skin” and that is a perfect explanation for what the J-Plasma® Renuvion does. It can take years off your skin, not just by minimizing wrinkles or tightening loose skin, but also by improving skin coloration and reducing the appearance of blemishes.
  • It is completely non-surgical. Another benefit we can’t ignore is the fact that it is a completely non-surgical, outpatient procedure! You will not experience the scarring that is typical of a traditional facelift since a small, pinhead-sized tool is used to access the treatment area. You also don’t have to “go under” as local anesthesia is used.
  • Results are immediately noticeable. When we say immediate, we mean immediate! The results of this treatment are noticeable during the procedure! No other skin tightening procedure can make that claim! The unique application of helium gas means skin is tightened immediately.
  • It can be combined with other treatments. J-Plasma® Renuvion can, and often is, combined with other skincare treatments, like liposuction, to maximize results.
  • Fast recovery. There is virtually no downtime with this procedure. The incision site is no bigger than a pinhead and the helium naturally dissipates into the atmosphere. Compression is required for several days after the treatment with length depending on the area(s) treated. 
  • Suitable for ANY PART of the body. This system targets loose, flabby skin anywhere on the body. Some of the most commonly treated areas are: forehead, face, neck, breast, abs, flanks, thighs, and arms.

Hydrafacial® Boosters | Britenol For Dark Spots | Brighten Skin

Brighten and Balance Skin Tone with Britenol® Intensive Spot Corrector

/in /by

Sunspots, age spots, brown spots, dark spots….whatever you call them, they can mar your complexion and sap your self-confidence! In the past, the only way to deal with these signs of aging or skin damage was to hide them with makeup. These days, we have many more options at our disposal, but one of the gentlest, yet still extremely effective, methods is the HydraFacial® with Britenol® booster.

HydraFacial® is our popular all-in-one resurfacing procedure that cleans, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates in one procedure. Special boosters are available to target specific skincare concerns and one of those concerns is skin spots. Britenol® is an Alpha-Arbutin and Vitamin C spot treatment solution that can help minimize the appearance of dark or brown spots, whether they are due to aging or sun exposure.

Nourish Your Skin With Vitamin C

The antioxidant properties of Vitamin C are well-documented, protecting the skin by supporting collagen production and, when applied topically, counteracting the effects of UV damage. Britenol® was designed to be used with HydraFacial® to brighten and balance skin tone while also minimizing the appearance of dark spots and sunspots. Britenol® is a light-weight, non-irritating booster to HydraFacial® procedures. It is also available as a take-home treatment so you can target particularly troublesome spots in between HydraFacial® procedures or apply it all over to improve skin radiance and appearance.

As part of your HydraFacial®, Britenol® provides intensive, all-over skin nourishment to even out skin tone and minimize the appearance of dark spots and areas of discoloration and providing all-over radiance!

At home, use Britenol® as a spot-treatment that is applied only to troublesome areas or as an all-over facial booster. In either case, it will nourish the skin, stimulate collagen production and help repair skin cells, gently fading areas of discoloration and repairing UV damage.

Over time, regular HydraFacials with Britenol® will improve the appearance and health of your skin thanks to the intense infusion of botanicals, antioxidants, nutrients, and peptides!

Rediscover Your Skin’s Natural Beauty

There’s no need to accept dark spots due to sun damage, aging, or pigmentation changes when Britenol® can help! Contact EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa to find out if Britenol® is suitable for your skincare needs or to schedule a consultation.

HydraFacial® Boosters | DermaBuilder Booster | Fight Signs of Aging

Fight Signs of Aging at Home With DermaBuilderTM

/in /by

The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is something we will all struggle with one day. While good skincare practices like sun protection and moisturizing can help to delay the onset of signs of aging, they cannot outwit genetics. As we age, our bodies decrease their production of collagen; this can result in a loss of skin elasticity and firmness and allow wrinkles and lines to appear.

At this stage of life, it’s time for a new skincare regimen. EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa recommends the HydraFacial® as a foundational treatment since it combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration into one single procedure. While HydraFacial® is an excellent choice for skin rejuvenation, it can be made even more effective with boosters like DermaBuilderTM.

Rebuild Your Skin With DermaBuilderTM

DermaBuilderTM is an age-refining peptide complex that is designed to help smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and enhance skin elasticity. It can be added to any HydraFacial® and it is also available for at-home application.

DermaBuilderTM works by stimulating skin cells to produce more fibroblast, collagen, and elastin proteins. These proteins are crucial to skin health, playing a strong role in how skin looks, feels, and behaves. As a result, DermaBuilderTM can help:

  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Improve skin elasticity.
  • Enhance skin tone and texture.
  • Increase skin firmness.

The unique peptide complex helps to both strengthen and smooth skin, addressing a variety of skin health concerns. It really does “rebuild” your skin!

At Home and In-Clinic Treatments Available

One of the biggest advantages of DermaBuilderTM is that it can be used in clinical applications like HydraFacial® and at home as a daily topical treatment. The DermaBuilderTM daily topical treatment supports HydraFacial® results and helps maintain long-term skincare health. The in-clinic treatment and the at-home topical treatments contain different peptide complex combinations which work together to yield optimal results.

Our patients definitely see results from a HydraFacial® with a DermaBuilderTM booster, but the ones who see the most improvement combine their in-clinic treatments with the at-home topical treatment.

If you have been looking for a clinical-grade skincare treatment that targets the signs of aging gently and effectively, the HydraFacial® with a DermaBuilderTM booster is a must! Schedule a consultation with EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa to learn more about HydraFacial®, DermaBuilderTM, or any of our other boosters and love your skin again!

Restore Lost Skin Tone With A HydraFacial® And CTGFTM Booster

Restore Lost Skin Tone With A HydraFacial® And CTGFTM Booster

/in /by

The face is subject to the most skincare stress. It is always exposed to wind, sun, rain, pollution and here in Florida, saltwater. Added to those stressors are typical skincare issues like acne, scarring, and, as we get older, fine lines and wrinkles. It’s tough to keep our faces looking fresh when they are subject to a daily onslaught from our environment and our genes.

The HydraFacial® is one of the best treatments on the market for gentle skincare restoration. It’s non-invasive, does not use lasers, and provides cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration all in one.

Boosters like Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF™) can be added to the HydraFacial® to target specific problem areas or concerns. The CTGF™ booster is particularly beneficial for targeting fine lines and wrinkles.

Natural Growth Factors Support Skin Renewal

CTGF™ is comprised of naturally-occurring growth factors which actually renew the skin from the inside out. While the HydraFacial® is clearing away dead skin cells and debris, the CTGF™ booster is infusing the newly uncovered skin with growth factors that target fine lines and wrinkles to minimize their appearance and restore skin to a more youthful-looking state.

Since CTGF™ uses growth factors, they keep working even after the initial treatment has ended. Once applied to the skin, CTGF™ binds to the skin, restoring and renewing skin for improved appearance and texture. The end result is a more youthful, fresher, radiant, and even complexion.

Rediscover Your Youthful Glow With A CTGFTM Booster At EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa

If your skin is showing its age, contact EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa in Orlando to see if a HydraFacial® with a CTGFTM booster is right for you. Not sure what you need? A technician at our certified HydraFacial® treatment center would be happy to examine your skin and discuss treatment options that can help you meet your skincare goals.

HydraFacial® GlySal Boosters Unveil Inner Radiance

HydraFacial® GlySal Boosters Unveil Inner Radiance

/in /by

The HydraFacial® remains one of our most popular services – and with good reason! It’s a wonderfully non-invasive way to renew your skin without using lasers or harsh chemical peels. This facial renewal treatment combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration into one process which is gentle enough even for the most sensitive skin types. In addition to renewing skin, the treatment can be used to target problem areas like wrinkles, scarring, dark spots, or clogged pores.

We are now offering GlySal peels as an optional add-on to our HydraFacials! This booster provides immediate results to enhance skin radiance.

Experience Deep Results With GlySal Peels

The GlySal booster is a peel that cleanses and exfoliates while also hydrating the skin. It is best suited for targeting fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and oily or acne-prone skin. The peel increases the depth of the treatment, minimizing imperfections on the top layer of the skin, but because it cleanses and hydrates as it works, there is far less irritation and stinging than what is typical of skin peels.

Peels work by softening sebum and impurities to the point that they can be planed away with dead skin cells. Many peels rely on harsh chemicals to achieve this, making such treatment impossible for those with sensitive skin. If you have been wary of peels in the past, the GlySal booster is the perfect entry point to these skin clarifying treatments.

GlySal is made up of a blend of Glycolic, Lactic, and Salicylic Acids – all known for their exfoliating abilities. Combined with the hydration of the HydraFacial, these acids are softened to the point where they can be used on most skin types, including sensitive, thin, and fragile skins without causing redness, irritation, or stinging.

The percentage concentration of acids is adjustable. You and your EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa technician can work together to determine the percentage best suited for your specific skin type and treatment goals.

Schedule a Skincare Consultation At EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa To Learn More About GlySal Peels

Treat Bra Bulge With Liposuction

Treat Bra Bulge With Liposuction

/in /by

“Bra bulge”, that area of fat between the armpit and the bra, along the sides, or on the back along the bra line, is an extremely common complaint among women. These fatty deposits can affect the body’s contours and make it difficult, if not impossible, to feel comfortable wearing form-fitting or slim fit tops. Even bras can start to feel uncomfortable if they are cutting into or rubbing against the skin.

The problem with this area of the body is that it is an extraordinarily difficult area from which to lose weight. Part of this difficulty stems from the function of the area. We need the skin and muscles to be mobile so we can reach and stretch our backs and arms. Unfortunately, over time this regular day-to-day movement can cause skin to lose elasticity, which affects the area’s contours. It’s also a common area for fat to build up and is particularly difficult for women to target the area with exercises.

Liposuction is a simple, quick, and effective way to get rid of this unwanted fatty tissue. Liposuction can be performed anywhere around the bra line – under the cups in front, under the armpits, along the mid-back, between the armpit and the bra, or even along the shoulder straps.

Remove Fat, Smooth, and Sculpt

Our bra line liposuction services focus on three goals: removing excess fat, smoothing the area, and sculpting the remaining tissues. The end result is a more toned appearance than liposuction alone can provide. This is extremely important since the areas that are treated are often hard to tone through diet and exercise. Lipo plus body sculpting gives you a head start on improving your form.

Targeting these pockets of fat through liposuction is an effective and controlled way to contour the shape of the back and sides, producing extremely pleasing results. Spot reduction through diet and exercise just doesn’t work in this area.

Ideal candidates have just small areas of fat that they would like to have removed. Good skin elasticity is also important since the skin will need to retract and shrink to accommodate your new shape. Once removed, the results are long-lasting as long as your maintain your weight.

The clinicians at EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa are highly trained and will undertake a comprehensive physical exam before recommending a course of action to ensure optimum results.

Discover A Smoother, More Shapely Form With Bra Line Liposuction 

If bra bulge is causing you discomfort or making you self-conscious or unhappy with your appearance, call EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa to discuss your liposuction and body sculpting options. Contact us at 407-857-5476 or make an appointment online to arrange a consultation.

What Can Arm Liposuction Do for You?

What Can Arm Liposuction Do for You?

/in /by

Did you know that we offer liposuction for arms? This isn’t the first area that most people generally think of when they think of liposuction, but it’s actually one of the areas that rates the highest levels of liposuction patient satisfaction!

There are many reasons for this:

  • The arms are highly visible, especially in our hot Florida environment where sleeveless tops are a must, and
  • Arm liposuction removes that hard-to-target “arm flab” that comes with excessive weight loss or simple aging, which means
  • The end result can be very noticeable and empowering for anyone who has been embarrassed by their arms!

When Strength Training Isn’t Enough

Who doesn’t want to show off strong, lean, defined arms? We’re always told that muscle burns fat, but what is shared less often is the fact that the fat you burn doesn’t necessarily come off where you want to lose it. That means you can strength train your arms every day, get stronger and lift heavier and still not see results in your arms! You can feel the muscles. You can tell that you’re stronger, but excess fat deposits are preventing your arms from looking their best. It’s incredibly frustrating.

If this sounds familiar, arm liposuction may be the next step in your transformation.

What To Know About Arm Liposuction

  • Arm liposuction is a very effective way to remove excess fat from the arms (typically the upper arms). It is often performed on people who are unable to lose weight in their arms, despite diet and exercise or those who have lost a lot of weight in the rest of their body but have lingering fat in the arms.
  • It’s important to recognize that arm liposuction removes fat from the arms. It does not remove excess skin such as sagging or drooping skin commonly found on the backs of the arms. For that, you’ll need an arm lift, which is a more invasive procedure. However, EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa’s body sculpting services may be an appropriate middle solution. This contouring service can be used to refine the shape of the arms after fat removal.
  • People with good skin elasticity have the best results as the skin will naturally tighten once the fat is removed.
  • Arm liposuction is very effective and long-lasting. As long as you maintain your body weight, your arm liposuction will last because the procedure actually removes fat cells from the body.
  • Arm liposuction can be safely combined with other lipo procedures and is often performed in conjunction with liposuction of the upper back/sides/bra line for a smooth and contoured appearance.

You don’t have to live with fat arms. Arm liposuction can unveil smooth, sculpted arms that you’ll want to show off every day! Contact EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa to learn more about arm liposuction and see if it is right for you.

Facial And Chin Liposuction Helps Refine Features

Facial And Chin Liposuction Helps Refine Features

/in /by

Heavy cheeks, drooping jowls, or a double chin can dramatically affect your appearance and sap your self-confidence. It’s not unusual for people who have lost weight in the rest of their body to struggle with pockets of fat on the face. These pockets usually show up in the cheeks, jowls, or skin under the neck, hiding your face’s natural shape and making you appear heavier than you really are.

EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa’s facial and chin liposuction procedures can be used to skillfully target and remove these stubborn bits of fat while also contouring the face to highlight its shape and features. Facial and chin liposuction delivers some of the most dramatic results of all liposuction treatments, as even the smallest amount of fat removal makes a noticeable difference.

A Careful And Considerate Approach To Facial Liposuction

Facial liposuction is suitable for just about anyone who has unwanted fat deposits on their face or neck. Our patients typically seek treatment for the following issues:

  • Double chins
  • Puffy cheeks
  • Poorly defined jawlines or necks

Facial or chin liposuction is performed the same way as liposuction is performed on other parts of the body, though on a much smaller and even more precise scale. Very small incisions are made near the treatment site and a hollow cannula (tube) is used to loosen and remove fat. We proceed very slowly and very methodically to not only remove areas of unwanted fat but to also ensure proper shaping and sculpting of the area. Fat removal without this careful consideration to the facial shape can result in uneven and unsatisfying results. We also offer customized post-care procedures to help improve results and support healing.

Uncover The Real You With Facial or Chin Liposuction

Facial and chin liposuction is an outpatient procedure that can result in a younger, fresher look for men and women alike. If you are bothered by a heavy appearance to your face or a double chin, contact EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa at 407-857-5476 or make an appointment online to schedule a liposuction consultation.

Say Goodbye To Cankles With Ankle Liposuction

Say Goodbye To Cankles With Ankle Liposuction

/in /by

Getting rid of fat is difficult no matter where your trouble spots are located, but one of the hardest areas to lose fat is the ankle. In many cases, fat accumulates due to diet and activity levels, but that’s not the case with the ankles and calves. These areas accumulate fat almost entirely based on genetics. That makes them almost impossible to treat through diet and exercise alone. Fortunately, thick calves and “cankles” can be effectively treated with ankle liposuction at EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa.

Ankle Liposuction Restores Ankle and Calf Balance and Beauty

Most of the patients who request ankle liposuction at EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa are unhappy with the look of their calves and ankles. They may feel that their ankles are too thick, merging with their calves to form a cankle, lack shape and definition, or detract from their weight loss or exercise success due to their undefined appearance.

Ankle liposuction can be used to slim and contour the ankles and calves, creating a more streamlined, feminine appearance. In fact, most treatments involve ankle liposuction and liposuction of the lower calf to ensure a beautiful, streamlined look that maintains proper proportions.

Ankle liposuction is less about weight loss and more about uncovering a contoured, slimmer appearance of the ankles and calves.

What To Expect From Ankle Liposuction

Calf and ankle liposuction is a minimally-invasive, outpatient procedure in which a thin, hollow tube called a cannula is used to break up fat deposits and remove them from the body. The procedure is highly precise and extremely targeted, making it very effective at creating definition in the calves and ankles. This targeted approach also makes recovery easier; patients are able (and encouraged!) to walk as soon as the day after their procedure. Discomfort is typically so minor that it can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to ankle liposuction at our clinic. Each patient undergoes a thorough health evaluation and physical examination of the treatment areas to ascertain exactly where slimming and contouring is needed to provide the best results and most attractive appearance.

Uncover Shapely Ankles And Calves With Ankle Liposuction At EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa

If you miss your ankles or dislike the appearance of your calves, ankles, and lower leg, contact EnLighten Skin & Body Medspa to learn more about ankle liposuction. We can help you see your ankles again and restore your confidence to uncover your lower legs!
