What is Renuvion?

Renuvion, also known as J-Plasma, is not a standalone medspa treatment, it is a surgical adjunct performed under anesthesia. During surgery, Dr. Beck inserts a thin wand beneath the skin through the surgical access points. The device delivers controlled radiofrequency energy with helium plasma to contract tissues and stimulate collagen production. The helium gas simultaneously cools the area, providing precision, safety, and comfort while enhancing surgical outcomes.

Renuvion skin tightening in Charlotte works by causing the underlying collagen fibers to contract instantly while encouraging new collagen growth over time. When combined with surgery, it helps create firmer contours, tighter skin, and more natural-looking results that go beyond what surgery alone can accomplish.

Who is a Good Candidate for Renuvion?

Renuvion is not performed as an in-office procedure. Instead, it is ideal for surgical candidates who would benefit from additional tissue tightening. Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, or jowls often see dramatic improvements when Renuvion is added to a facelift or neck lift. For those with more advanced sagging or significant volume loss, traditional surgical techniques remain the foundation, with Renuvion serving as a complement.

Additional candidacy factors include:

  • Most effective for patients in their 30s to 60s with some skin elasticity remaining.
  • Best suited for individuals in good health, non-smokers, and at a stable weight.
  • Works for patients committed to maintaining results with healthy habits and skincare.

Renuvion is not a cure-all for aging, but when paired with surgery, it can refine contours and prolong youthful results.

What to Expect During Renuvion Treatment

Because Renuvion is performed in the operating room, anesthesia is already in place as part of your surgery. Once your procedure is underway, Dr. Beck inserts the slender Renuvion wand beneath the skin through small surgical entry points. The combination of helium plasma and radiofrequency energy contracts the tissues, helping to sculpt smoother contours and achieve a more defined result.

Treatment time depends on the extent of the surgery but typically takes an additional 30 minutes to an hour. Afterward, you may experience swelling or bruising in the treated area, which improves within days. Any discomfort can be managed with standard postoperative care and medications.

Aftercare

Since Renuvion is part of your surgery, recovery aligns with your surgical healing process. To ensure the best results:

  • Avoid strenuous activity and sun exposure until cleared by your surgeon.
  • Follow all aftercare instructions closely, including any topical treatments recommended.
  • Use cold compresses as advised to minimize swelling.
  • Attend follow-up visits so we can monitor your healing and results.
