Renuvion J Plasma in Consultório Dr. Leandro de Aquino
About the clinic
Renuvion J-Plasma is a specialized skin retraction procedure available at Consultório Dr. Leandro de Aquino in Nova Lima, Brazil. This technology uses cold plasma energy to firm the skin during body contouring surgeries. The clinic holds international TEMOS certification and accreditation from the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery, focusing on honest patient counseling and safety.
How Renuvion J-Plasma Works
This procedure serves as a complement to liposuction and liposculpture. It uses plasma-based technology to stimulate skin contraction from the inside. This helps the skin adhere better to the new body contours after fat removal. The treatment is often a choice for patients who want to avoid the long scars associated with a traditional tummy tuck or abdominoplasty.
Procedure Details at Hospital Dia Thymos
All Renuvion treatments take place at Hospital Dia Thymos. This provides a hospital-level environment for the surgery. Dr. Leandro Ricardo de Aquino Santos performs these procedures as part of a broader body contouring plan. While the technology helps with tightening, it is important to note that results depend on the patient's skin quality. The treatment adds to the total cost of the surgery and takes place during the same session as the liposuction.
Clinical Expectations and Limitations
Dr. Leandro Ricardo de Aquino Santos maintains a transparent approach regarding what Renuvion can achieve. Patients should understand these key points before choosing the procedure:
- Not a substitute for surgery: It cannot replace skin resection in cases of severe sagging.
- Complementary role: It works best when paired with liposuction or liposculpture.
- Evidence: The technology currently lacks a high volume of long-term clinical studies.
- Realistic goals: While it improves firmness, it is not a "miracle" fix for all skin types.

Plastic Surgery Specialties
The clinic performs a wide range of aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Surgical plans address both cosmetic concerns and conditions requiring functional repair.
Facial Rejuvenation and Rhinoplasty
Facial procedures focus on restoring volume and correcting sagging tissues or deep wrinkles. For facelifts, the clinic offers several methods:
- Deep Plane Facelift for thorough tissue repositioning
- SMAS plication techniques
- Platysma plicature to address the neck area
Rhinoplasty services treat nasal aesthetics and breathing function together. Modern techniques preserve nasal anatomy while achieving the desired structural changes.
Breast and Body Contouring
The clinic offers breast augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy. For patients seeking a breast lift without implants, the Liacyr flap technique acts as a biological prosthesis. Mastopexy with implants may use the dual plane method or the Chiari L-technique.
Body contouring includes liposculpture to remove localized fat and various abdominal reshaping methods. The clinic offers MILA (Minimally Invasive Lipoabdominoplasty). This technique uses small incisions and tissue-retraction technologies, so recovery is faster than with traditional surgery.
Reconstructive and Intimate Surgery
Reconstructive services address deformities from congenital conditions or major weight loss, including post-bariatric cases. The practice also performs labiaplasty, most commonly for hypertrophy of the labia minora. Every surgical case involves a coordinated team covering anesthesia, nursing, and specialized monitoring.
Non-Surgical Aesthetic Treatments
The Cosmiatria department provides non-operative procedures for facial enhancement. These quick treatments work as standalone options or complement surgical results. Available services include:
- Botulinum toxin injections
- Dermal fillers for volume restoration
- Chemical peels
- Laser therapy
These treatments target skin quality and fine lines without the need for an operating room.
Recovery Support and Safety Protocols
Patient safety is managed through strict perioperative protocols, including rigorous asepsis and intraoperative monitoring. To support healing, the clinic offers hyperbaric oxygen therapy as a complementary treatment. This therapy helps tissue recovery after complex procedures in selected cases.
The clinic follows a structured postoperative plan. Specialists monitor swelling reduction and scar maturation over several months to achieve the best long-term results.
