Renuvion is a non-surgical body-contouring procedure that tightens loose skin without the need for surgery. It improves skin quality and health while reducing the signs of aging. At Eterna Cosmetic Surgery, we offer Renuvion to San Antonio patients searching for minimally invasive skin-tightening treatments.
What Is Renuvion Treatment?
Over time, skin starts to sag due to a decrease in collagen and elastin production. Skin droops in areas like the arms, buttocks, face, and neck, creating an aged appearance. Renuvion is a minimally invasive alternative to surgical lift procedures for patients looking for effective state-of-the-art skin tightening.
Renuvion can be used in the following treatments:
- Body Contouring
- Skin Tightening and Skin Lifting
- No-Cut Tummy Tuck
- Scarless Arm Lift
- Smooth Thigh Lift
- Mommy Makeover
- Eterna Breast Lift
- Suture Suspension Facelift
- Scarless Facelift/Neck Lift
- Double Chin Reduction
- Male Breast Reduction
How Does Renuvion Body Contouring Work?
Renuvion treatment is performed using a handheld device. This device releases helium gas, which is combined with radiofrequency (RF) energy to create helium plasma energy. The controlled heating and cooling treatment contracts the skin and underlying tissues, thus creating optimal skin-tightening results without damaging the tissues in the treatment area.
Ideal Candidates for Renuvion Treatment
Renuvion treatment is recommended to patients experiencing mild skin sagging. This treatment is a great option for patients who want to delay or avoid invasive surgical procedures for skin tightening and body contouring. Candidates must be in good overall health and must have realistic expectations in regard to enhancing their appearance.
Patients above 18 years of age and non-smokers are excellent candidates for Renuvion. Candidates should not be pregnant or breastfeeding. The best candidates are willing to follow skincare recommendations for lasting results.
Your Consultation
Your consultation will start with a conversation about your goals and concerned body areas. In addition to evaluating your medical history, a physical exam will be performed to get an accurate assessment of your skin health and body contours.
If you are suitable for Renuvion treatment, we will create a personalized treatment plan that can achieve your goals. We will discuss the details with you; the procedure, aftercare, results, cost, and number of recommended treatments will all be explained. We encourage you to ask questions.
Your Renuvion Treatment Session
The treatment session for Renuvion can take between 30 minutes and one to two hours depending on the number of treatment areas. The procedure can be done alone or may be combined with a liposuction procedure. A tiny incision will be made to deliver the helium plasma during treatment.
Aftercare
The patient can go home after treatment. Aftercare instructions will be provided for safe and ideal results. A compression garment may be applied if the treatment area involves the lower face or neck. Minor swelling and tenderness may be experienced for a few weeks.
The patient may need one to two treatments. Patients can see immediate results in the form of tighter and firmer skin, and optimal results can be achieved within six to nine months.
The results of Renuvion can last up to two years. Some treatment areas like the face and neck have results lasting up to five years. Maintenance treatments may be scheduled to prolong the results.
The Cost of Renuvion
The price of the Renuvion procedure will depend on the size and number of treatment areas. The number of treatment sessions can also impact the overall cost of the procedure.
