What is Renuvion?

Renuvion is an innovative cosmetic procedure designed to tighten and rejuvenate skin. It utilizes a unique combination of radiofrequency energy and helium plasma, which causes immediate contraction and stimulates long-term collagen production when applied beneath the skin. This minimally invasive treatment addresses issues like loose or sagging skin due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy. Since Renuvion is non-surgical, it results in minimal scarring and quicker recovery time than traditional surgical methods.

Results of Renuvion treatment

Renuvion is a novel and effective non-surgical method for smoothing and contracting the skin. As the world’s first minimally invasive skin tightening treatment, Renuvion combines two energy-based technologies: Radiofrequency energy (RF) and cold plasma. This unique combination results in tightened and refreshed skin. The total effect of the treatment might not be noticeable until several weeks or even months later as the body regenerates natural collagen. It’s important to remember that every patient’s body responds differently to treatment.

Recovery from Renuvion treatment

The recovery period after a Renuvion treatment can vary based on the individual and the specific area treated. It is generally expected to last between 1 to 3 weeks. During this time, patients may experience mild discomfort similar to a deep ache, which usually subsides within 1 to 4 weeks. You may need to wear a compression garment in the initial 72 hours following the procedure. Most patients can return to regular activities or light exercise within 1 to 2 days of their procedure.

Am I a candidate for Renuvion?

Renuvion in Scottsdale is a minimally invasive procedure performed through small entry points in the skin, gently contracting the tissue beneath the skin. It is a safe, groundbreaking treatment option for individuals seeking skin tightening treatments that are free from large incisions or scars. However, as with any medical procedure, candidacy for Renuvion is best determined by a qualified professional. Our doctor will consider factors like your overall health, skin condition, and treatment goals.
