Weight loss is an achievement to celebrate, but it often brings with it the unwanted side effect of loose skin. Fortunately, advancements in aesthetic treatments such as Opus Plasma® offer a potential solution for skin tightening after weight loss. Jeanine Christian-La Touche, MSA, CRNA, and her team at La Touche Élite Aesthetics in Myrtle Beach, SC are experts in this field, providing top-quality treatments tailored to individual needs.

Addressing loose skin after weight loss with Opus Plasma

Loose skin after weight loss can cause concern, affecting self-confidence and comfort. Traditional options for dealing with it range from intensive exercise routines aimed at toning to surgical options like tummy tucks, which carry risks and recovery time. However, with Opus Plasma, a less invasive solution is now available. This revolutionary technology uses fractional plasma to treat loose skin, stimulating collagen production for natural-looking results.

Collagen and skin tightening: A natural solution

Opus Plasma works by promoting collagen production in the body. Collagen is the critical protein that provides structure to your skin, helping it maintain its elasticity. With age, our bodies naturally produce less collagen, which can result in saggy, loose skin, especially after substantial weight loss. The Opus Plasma treatment can enhance collagen production, helping tighten the skin and restore a youthful appearance. As a result, collagen for loose skin after weight loss has become an area of keen interest for many people seeking to improve their skin's appearance.

What should I know about how Opus Plasma skin tightening is performed?

Jeanine Christian-La Touche and her team at La Touche Élite Aesthetics are skilled at utilizing Opus Plasma for skin tightening. We've helped numerous clients regain confidence by treating their loose skin post-weight loss with this cutting-edge technology. Opus Plasma skin tightening procedures utilize a handheld device emitting radiofrequency and plasma energy. Additional aspects to know about this treatment include:

  • A topical anesthetic is applied to the skin to reduce discomfort
  • The procedure is performed in a series of passes, each creating a new micro-injury grid
  • The number of passes and the treatment intensity will vary depending on the individual's skin concerns
  • Patients may experience mild to moderate side effects, such as redness, swelling, and tenderness, which usually resolve within a few days
