I'm very happy with the laser hair removal I received at this clinic. I purchased a 6-month treatment plan for my underarms, bikini area, and full legs. In my underarms and bikini area, the hair stopped growing completely by the second-to-last session, but I still completed the treatment. Regarding my legs, after the last session, a few stray hairs have appeared in different areas—very few and thinner. I'm currently getting a touch-up on my legs. The service from all the staff is excellent. Highly recommended.

Dr. Debbie is an amazing injector. I see her for Botox and filler if needed. Her skill gives such natural results. She knows how I hate needles and makes the treatments very comfortable. I highly recommend going to see her. ????

Dr Hill and the staff were amazing. Everything went so smoothly. All my questions were answered and any follow up calls were dealt with immediately!

I was satisfied with the approach of the procedure explained to me and the promptness of the office staff to have me seen with Dr Eichenberg. The procedure I am looking to have done is only preformed by very specific physicians. The staff was nonjudgmental and treated me with respect the entire time and very accommodating to my needs.

Beautiful location, very courteous staff at all levels, I felt like I was treated with dignity and respect and like I was the most important patient

Dr. Ford was very understanding about my personal situation. She provided me with valuable information and guidance. I hold Dr. Ford in high regard for her professionalism and knowledge. She also presented herself with warmth and true caring for her patients.

"I can't say enough about Renaunce cosmetic surgery and medical spa, the staff and Dr Eichenberg. The staff no matter who you encounter are extremely kind, attentive, and informative. I felt so taken care of and always left feeling good about my experience. This was my second surgery and Dr. Eichenberg is an amazing surgeon. I absolutely love what he has done for me and his work is phenomenal. It has changed how I see and feel about myself and that to me that is priceless. He not only is incredible at what he does but he always seems to make you laugh when you see him for your visits. I highly recommend Renuance cosmetic surgery center and medical spa for all your cosmetic needs. You will not be disappointed!"

Chelsea takes extra time to make sure there is no bruising. She is great at communicating what she is doing during my visit. I appreciate the personal attention she gives me during my visit.

Vinny was so helpful and spent 45 minutes on the phone with me before I even set foot into the office. Dr. Ford is so kind and patient - she answered questions about other possible procedures too.

The staff was amazing. Dr. Ford was just delightful. I felt comfortable, all my questions were answered, and the entire staff were knowledgeable.

Excess Skin Removal FAQ

How much weight do I need to have lost to qualify for excess skin removal?

Most surgeons recommend maintaining a stable weight for 6-12 months before surgery. While there is no strict weight loss threshold, we typically recommend that the patient reach their goal weight and be weight stable for 6-12 months before undergoing any surgery. During your consultation, we’ll assess your specific case, skin elasticity, and overall health to determine the best approach.

Will insurance cover my excess skin removal surgery?

Insurance coverage varies. While cosmetic procedures are typically not covered, some cases with documented medical complications—like chronic skin infections, severe rashes, or mobility issues—might qualify for partial coverage. We can help you navigate insurance documentation and provide the necessary medical evidence.

How painful is the recovery, and how long will I be out of commission?

Pain levels vary, but most patients describe it as manageable with prescribed pain medication. The first week involves the most discomfort, similar to an intense workout. Most office workers return to desk jobs within 2-4 weeks, while those with physical jobs might need 4-6 weeks off. We provide comprehensive pain management and recovery strategies tailored to your specific procedure.

Will I have visible scars, and how can I minimize them?

Scarring is inevitable with excess skin removal, but our techniques minimize and strategically place incisions. We use advanced closure methods and provide detailed scar management protocols. Most scars fade significantly over 12-18 months. We’ll discuss scar placement, recommend medical-grade scar treatments, and provide guidance on protection and healing.

How much skin will actually be removed?

The amount varies widely based on your body, weight loss, and specific areas treated. Some patients have 5-10 pounds of skin removed, while others might have less.

Can I combine this with other procedures?

Many patients combine excess skin removal with additional body contouring procedures, such as liposuction or muscle repair. We will assess your overall goals and medical history to recommend safe, comprehensive treatment plans that maximize your results and minimize recovery time.

What are the risks of this surgery?

Like any major surgery, risks include infection, bleeding, poor wound healing, and anesthesia complications. Our rigorous pre-surgical screening, advanced surgical techniques, and meticulous post-operative care minimize these risks. During the consultation, we will thoroughly discuss your individual risk factors. We will also talk with you about your aftercare and can recommend post-operative healthcare providers if you need additional help at home following surgery.

How long will the results last?

Results can be long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Significant weight fluctuations, future pregnancies, or natural aging can impact your results. We provide comprehensive guidance on maintaining your new body contour.

When can I exercise and return to normal activities?

Light walking begins immediately after surgery. Most patients can resume light exercises around 4-6 weeks and full-intensity workouts around 8-12 weeks. We provide a personalized recovery roadmap and closely monitor your healing to ensure safe, optimal recovery.

What should I do to prepare for surgery?

Preparation is key. We recommend:

Reaching and maintaining a stable weight for 6-12 months
Quitting smoking at least 4-6 weeks before surgery
Maintaining a balanced diet and staying hydrated
Arranging post-surgery support and recovery space
Completing all pre-surgical medical screenings
