"If you know me, I am always transparent about my self-care journey," The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom shared in an Instagram video detailing her latest beauty move. "From red carpets to TV screens, I take pride in my confidence – but I am also not one to hide from my insecurities. For me, that is the loose skin around my knees." 

The mom of two went on to explain why she partnered with Renuvion, which is a body contouring technology that "treats loose skin" to tackle the areas around her knees.

"I am continuing my wellness journey to look and feel my best but to also inspire you to look and feel your best," Dolores said in the video. She added that the technology uses a combination of "radio frequency energy" and "helium plasma" to target the "collagen-rich tissues" to "pull the skin closer to the muscle" to achieve a smoother appearance. 

"I’m taking you all on this journey with me and will be sharing every step along the way, including my results!" Dolores concluded her caption, inviting her followers to ask any questions they have about the procedure.
