Over time, the skin naturally loses its elasticity and collagen, leading to the appearance of wrinkles, sagging, and a less firm texture. Renuvion®, a revolutionary skin-tightening treatment, offers patients an advanced, minimally invasive solution to restore a smoother, firmer appearance. Available at New York Plastic Surgical Group, a division of Long Island Plastic Surgical Group, Renuvion provides exceptional results for patients in NYC, New York, and Long Island, helping to rejuvenate the neck with minimal downtime.

What is Renuvion?

Renuvion is a groundbreaking, minimally invasive treatment designed to tighten and rejuvenate skin with precision and efficiency. By harnessing advanced radiofrequency energy, Renuvion delivers transformative results similar to those of more invasive procedures like neck lifts but with reduced downtime and risk. The device operates using a proprietary combination of helium gas and electrical energy, producing cool plasma that stimulates tissue contraction beneath the skin. This unique technology provides a safe, controlled approach to achieving a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.1

How Does Renuvion Tighten Skin?

Renuvion utilizes a specialized combination of radiofrequency energy and helium gas to create cold plasma, which is delivered beneath the skin’s surface. This cold plasma produces a “Dual Thermal Effect™,” heating the underlying tissues to optimal contraction temperatures while simultaneously cooling the skin’s surface.

This precise process results in immediate tightening of subdermal tissues, which are further enhanced as the body naturally produces collagen during the healing process.2 Unlike other technologies, Renuvion minimizes heat transfer to the skin, reducing the risk of thermal damage while providing next-generation skin-tightening results. This innovative treatment delivers both instant and long-term improvements for smoother, more contoured skin.

Benefits of Renuvion Skin Tightening

Renuvion offers an innovative solution for tightening and rejuvenating the skin, with benefits that make it a standout choice for many patients:

  • Effectively tightens loose skin on the neck.
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Minimally invasive, requiring only a small incision.
  • Minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.
  • Delivers immediate results that continue to improve as collagen production enhances firmness over time.

This advanced treatment combines precision, convenience, and exceptional results, helping patients achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Who is a Candidate for Renuvion?

The best candidates for Renuvion skin tightening are individuals in good overall health who do not smoke and have realistic expectations about the results of a minimally invasive procedure. Renuvion is an excellent option for addressing mild to moderate skin laxity on the neck.

Preparing for Renuvion

Proper preparation is key to ensuring the best possible results from your Renuvion treatment. During your consultation, your provider will discuss your medical history, review any medications or supplements you are taking, and provide detailed instructions to help you prepare for the procedure.

In most cases, you may be asked to:

  • Avoid smoking and alcohol in the weeks leading up to your treatment, as these can interfere with healing.
  • Discontinue certain medications or supplements that could increase bleeding or bruising, as advised by your provider.
  • Arrange for a friend or family member to drive you home after your procedure, as sedation may be used.

Following these guidelines can help optimize your results and minimize the risk of complications. Your provider will also be available to answer any questions and ensure you feel fully prepared for your Renuvion treatment.

The Renuvion Procedure

Renuvion treatments are designed to be both effective and comfortable. The procedure is typically performed under sedation or general anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Your provider will begin by making small incisions in the treatment area, allowing the Renuvion handpiece to access the subdermal tissues beneath the skin.

Once in position, the device delivers cold plasma energy that targets the deeper layers of tissue. This energy heats the tissues to optimal contraction temperatures, causing immediate tightening and stimulating collagen production for continued improvement over time.

The treatment is efficient, often taking 45 minutes to an hour depending on the size of the area being treated. Many patients notice visible results right after their procedure, with further enhancements as healing progresses.

Renuvion Recovery

Recovery after Renuvion is generally straightforward but does require adherence to your provider’s instructions for optimal results. You’ll need to wear a compression garment continuously for the first week and then while at home for the following six weeks. For body treatments, a compression garment will be necessary for at least six weeks to support healing and maximize results.

It’s normal to experience some tenderness and swelling in the treated areas, which typically subsides within four to six weeks. As the swelling diminishes, the skin-tightening effects become increasingly noticeable. Full results often develop gradually over six to nine months, as the body completes its natural healing and collagen production processes.

Renuvion Results

Renuvion delivers transformative results that tighten and smooth the skin, surpassing what laser treatments can achieve for many areas of the body.

In the weeks after treatment, improvements become more apparent as swelling reduces and the skin continues to tighten. While initial results can be seen quickly, the final effects typically take about six to nine months to develop and can continue to improve for up to a year, providing long-lasting enhancement.

FAQs About Renuvion

Will I need more than one Renuvion treatment?

Most patients achieve noticeable and lasting results with just one Renuvion treatment. The effects can last up to five years, thanks to the procedure’s ability to stimulate collagen production and skin tightening over time.

How much does Renuvion cost near me?

The cost of Renuvion in NYC and Long Island varies depending on factors such as the size and number of treatment areas and whether it’s combined with other procedures like liposuction. During your consultation, your provider will create a personalized treatment plan and provide a detailed cost estimate.
