2. Body contouring is a broad term that includes many technologies and surgical techniques. Body contouring procedures are intended to provide aesthetic reshaping rather than a change in physical weight. Skin laxity is a type of body contouring according the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery. Skin laxity is the quality of looseness or drooping in the skin. Skin laxity can be treated with surgical lifts, which remove some skin, or newer radiofrequency therapies. Renuvion improves skin laxity by improving the shape of the underlying tissues through minimally invasive techniques (i.e. coagulation/contraction of subcutaneous tissues).
