Advancements in the fields cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery show no signs of slowing, as demand for and acceptance of procedures continues to soar across all age groups. According to ‘Plastic Surgery Market Trends 2025’ report from Towards Healthcare, the global plastic surgery market, is projected to reach USD $217.66 billion by 2034. One recent breakthrough in skin tightening technology to make it to our shores, is Renuvion, which is minimally invasive but delivers a powerful way to tighten tissues and rejuvenate the face and body.
So, what makes Renuvion so effective? It combines radiofrequency energy and helium plasma to produce a precision-controlled beam that contracts subdermal tissues, in conjunction with rapid cooling. The dual thermal effect safely heats tissues to 85°C, then cools them in a split second. The tissues are tightened with minimal damage to surrounding areas.
The plasma energy interacting with the connective tissues beneath the skin causes the contracture, and simultaneously the stimulation of neocollagenesis – the collagen renewal process – gifts firmness and lift. Results deliver gradually across three-to-six months – you can expect to see an improvement to tone, texture and elasticity.
Renuvion is particularly effective when combined with other body contouring surgeries:
Recovery following Renuvion is generally straightforward. You can expect mild to moderate swelling and bruising, compression garments are worn to support healing and a return to light activities typically within a week. For larger treatment areas or when combined with liposuction, recovery may be slightly longer.
If loose or sagging skin due to weight loss, ageing or following pregnancy, is something you’d like to address, Renuvion could be the solution. Schedule a consultation with our team of board-certified cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgeons to explore whether Renuvion is a good option for your face and body goals.
