| Abstrakt: | This paper examines the practice of using a helium plasma radiofrequency (RF) device for contracting subcutaneous soft tissue following liposuction in all body areas. A review of the data from 6 industry-sponsor-initiated retrospective studies was performed, wherein 483 real-world patients underwent liposuction followed by contraction of the subcutaneous soft tissue with the helium plasma RF system. These data were evaluated to determine if any new or increased risks were introduced compared to the risks of liposuction alone. The totality of the real-world data demonstrates there are no new or increased risks for helium plasma RF procedures following liposuction compared to liposuction alone. These data support the safety of helium plasma RF for subcutaneous soft-tissue contraction following liposuction. There are currently no alternative therapies specifically cleared by the FDA that can claim use following liposuction for the purpose of contracting the subcutaneous soft tissue.
