Renuvion Skin Tightening in Nashville, TN

At Image Surgical Arts, led by Dr. Brady Harris—a triple board-certified cosmetic surgeon specializing in body, breast, and facial surgeries—we're committed to offering advanced treatments that cater to your aesthetic goals.

One such innovative procedure is Renuvion skin tightening. It's the number one body contouring technology to pair with cosmetic surgery, offering skin tightening and rejuvenation with tiny incisions and minimal downtime.

Addressing Loose Skin

Loose skin on your neck, arms, buttocks, back, chest, breasts, knees, thighs, abdomen, flanks, or anywhere else on your body can be frustrating, to say the very least. That’s where Renuvion comes in. The revolutionary, minimally invasive procedure uses a device that turns helium gas into a precise stream of energy known as plasma.

Unlike conventional devices, Renuvion uses concentrated energy paired with cold helium gas to focus the radiofrequency (RF) energy exactly where you need it. It allows us to have a greater degree of precision and reduce damage to your surrounding tissues.

At Image Surgical Arts, we typically use Renuvion paired with VASER liposuction which helps to precisely sculpt your body. VASER is an advanced ultrasound-assisted liposuction technology to help patients achieve a sculpted, more athletic contour.

Renuvion Skin Tightening Candidates

Renuvion is ideal for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity who seek a minimally invasive solution.

Candidates often include those who have noticed sagging skin due to aging, weight loss, or post-pregnancy changes. A consultation with Dr. Harris will help determine if Renuvion aligns with your aesthetic objectives.

Renuvion vs. Traditional Skin Tightening Procedures: Pros and Cons

Renuvion combines helium plasma and radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten the skin beneath the surface. This hybrid technique offers advantages including:

Minimally Invasive: Requires only small incisions, reducing scarring and recovery time.
Mild Sedation: Renuvion requires only light sedation.
Targeted Treatment: Provides precise skin tightening.
Pairs Well With Liposuction: Dr. Harris often combines Renuvion and VASER liposuction for impressive fat reduction and body sculpting.

Renuvion has very few drawbacks, but it does have limitations. It's often ideal for mild to moderate skin sagging. However, severe sagging usually requires skin removal, a situation where traditional surgery might be more effective.

Traditional surgical procedures, like facelifts or tummy tucks, effectively address significant sagging, but they have longer recovery periods and increased risks. Renuvion can be a great middle-ground if you want substantial improvements without extensive surgery.

The Renuvion Treatment Procedure: What to Expect

Before Renuvion:

Consultation: Discuss your goals with Dr. Harris to ensure Renuvion suits you.
Medical Evaluation: Dr. Harris conducts a health assessment to confirm you're a good candidate.
Pre-Treatment Instructions: Dr. Harris provides pre-treatment instructions. You may need pre-surgery testing and a surgery clearance exam through your primary care doctor.

During Treatment:

Anesthesia: Light sedation is typically used to ensure comfort.
Procedure: Dr. Harris makes small incisions (about ¼ inch) and inserts the Renuvion device to deliver energy beneath the skin, causing it to contract and tighten.
Duration: The procedure usually takes one to three hours, depending on the treatment area.

After Treatment:

Recovery: Expect mild swelling and bruising, which typically subside within a week.
Aftercare: Follow post-procedure instructions, including wearing compression garments if advised.

Renuvion FAQs

How does Renuvion compare to traditional surgery?

Renuvion is considerably less invasive, with much smaller incisions. It also offers faster recovery times and minimal scarring. However, it's best suited for mild to moderate skin laxity. Conventional procedures, for example, tummy tuck, may be the best solution if you have significant extra skin.

What areas of the body can be treated with Renuvion?

Renuvion can address skin laxity in various areas, including the face, neck, neck, abdomen, arms, and thighs. It's versatile and can be customized to your specific concerns.

Is Renuvion safe for all skin types?

Yes, Renuvion is effective for many skin types. However, a consultation is necessary to determine suitability based on individual skin characteristics and goals.

How long do Renuvion results last?

Results can vary with each patient based on factors like age, lifestyle, and skincare. However, many patients have enjoyed their new, tighter, slimmer figure for as long as eight years! Maintaining a healthy weight and a good skincare routine can help prolong the effects.
