Rated 4.9 stars from 47 Google reviews.
Junera is a laser treatment developed by Onyxamed. It uses two wavelengths of laser energy to work on the fat under the skin and the collagen in it at the same time, to define and lift the face and body. It suits adults with loose skin, a softening jawline or small fat pockets who want tightening without surgery. Dr. G quotes the price for your areas at your consultation.

Two wavelengths in one treatment
Junera combines a 980 nm and a 1470 nm wavelength. Working on fat and collagen together is what sets it apart from skin treatments that reach only one layer.
Beneath the skin
Small fat pockets
One wavelength remodels tissue and reduces small, localized pockets of subdermal fat, which helps define contours such as the jawline.
Within the skin
Collagen
The other wavelength tightens dermal collagen, with the aim of firmer, lifted skin.
From consultation to day seven
Junera recovery usually takes about 3 to 7 days, and most patients keep to their normal schedule around it.
Consultation
Dr. G looks at your skin, the fat beneath it and what you want to change, then builds a Junera plan around your skin and body goals.
Treatment day
The area is numbed with local anesthesia and Dr. G delivers the laser energy. Most patients do not feel pain during treatment.
The first few days
Mild inflammation is common. Most patients manage without anti-inflammatory medicine and wear a compression garment for a few days.
Days 3 to 7
Most patients are back to their routine within this window, including work and planned events. Results vary from patient to patient.

A body contouring physician behind the laser
Junera works on the same layers Dr. G treats in body contouring: the fat under the skin and the skin over it. Dr. Armendariz has performed more than 2,000 liposuction procedures. At your consultation he decides whether Junera, liposuction or another treatment fits the area.

If a pocket of fat is larger than Junera can address, Dr. G will say so and explain the alternatives, such as removing the fat with liposuction or tightening the skin with Renuvion.
Junera next to Renuvion and Sofwave
Dr. G offers three ways to tighten skin. They differ in the energy used, how deep it works and what the day involves.
- Junera
- Two laser wavelengths under local anesthesia, working on small fat pockets and collagen together. Recovery is usually about 3 to 7 days.
- Renuvion
- Helium plasma and radiofrequency energy under local or general anesthesia, most often added to liposuction on the body.
- Sofwave
- Ultrasound from outside the skin, with no needles, incisions or numbing. It works in the skin only, not on fat.
I had a Junera facial procedure recently on my lower jaw and neck for skin tightning. My experience has been excellent so far.
