At Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery, we are committed to providing our patients with the latest advancements in cosmetic treatments to achieve natural and rejuvenating results. One of our premier offerings is Renuvion Facial Renewal, a minimally invasive solution that can transform your look.
What Is Renuvion?
Renuvion is a revolutionary cosmetic procedure that utilizes advanced technology to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. Combining the unique properties of helium plasma with radiofrequency energy, Renuvion offers a minimally invasive solution for skin tightening and contouring.
Unlike traditional methods, Renuvion delivers controlled heat to the underlying tissues, stimulating collagen production and resulting in a more youthful, firm appearance. This procedure is particularly effective for facial renewal, targeting neck, cheeks, and jawline areas.
The unique technology behind Renuvion protects the surrounding tissues, reducing the risk of complications and enhancing the procedure’s safety.
Who Is A Good Candidate For Renuvion?
Renuvion suits individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity and a more youthful appearance. Ideal candidates are those experiencing early signs of aging, such as sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles, but do not require extensive surgical intervention. Generally, good candidates for Renuvion include:
- Individuals with good overall health without severe medical conditions that could impair healing.
- Non-smokers since smoking can affect the healing process.
- Candidates should have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes and understand that results can vary.
- Patients who can maintain a stable weight, as significant weight fluctuations can affect the skin’s appearance.
During a consultation, Dr. Andrews will assess your needs and determine if Renuvion is the right option.
The Renuvion Procedure
The Renuvion procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation after the treatment area is cleansed. Following this, small incisions are made in inconspicuous locations to allow for the insertion of the Renuvion device.
Once the device is under the skin, helium plasma and radiofrequency energy are applied to the targeted tissues, creating a controlled heating effect that stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin. After achieving the desired results, the device is removed, and the incisions are closed with sutures.
The entire procedure typically takes one to two hours, depending on the extent of the treatment area, and patients can usually return home the same day.

Recovery
Recovery from Renuvion is relatively quick and involves minimal discomfort. Most patients experience some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the treated area, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication and cold compresses. The majority of these symptoms subside within a week.
Patients should rest for the first few days and avoid strenuous activities; attending all scheduled follow-up appointments with Dr. Andrews is crucial to monitoring progress and ensuring proper healing.
Protecting the treated area from direct sun exposure is essential to prevent pigmentation changes. Most patients can resume normal activities within a week, with full results visible over the following weeks and months as collagen remodels and improves the skin’s appearance.
