Renuvion

Introduction

Introduction to Renuvion

Renuvion is a state-of-the-art technique for smoothing the skin and removing unflattering fat deposits. By combining a gentle jet of cool helium with powerful radio waves, Dr. Gentile in Youngstown and Akron, OH, firms lax contours while promoting collagen growth from within. While a Cleveland Renuvion treatment requires a small incision, this procedure is considered minimally invasive and requires no downtime.

Renuvion Discussion with Dr Gentile

A light-skinned woman with dark hair in a bun, wearing a light gray or mauve bra, sits with her eyes closed and a soft expression. Her arms are crossed over her torso, hands gently resting on her chest. The plain gray background and soft, even lighting emphasize her serene pose. - Renuvion in Youngstown, OH

What is
Renuvion?

Renuvion is a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation system that combines two powerful treatment modalities: radiofrequency energy and cold helium plasma. Together, they help firm sagging skin and reduce localized fat without causing superficial damage. Renuvion not only combats lax contours but also triggers the regeneration of collagen, a critical protein responsible for skin suppleness, radiance, and youthfulness. The treatment can be performed on the face, neck, and body and is sometimes paired with liposuction for even more dramatic body sculpting results.

  • An electric current fused with helium gas creates a cold stream of plasma, cooling and protecting the skin during your session. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is directed at the treatment zones to gently heat the deeper layers, stimulating collagen rebuilding and supporting longer-term skin tightening. With this dual technology, Renuvion can achieve remarkable body contouring results with minimal discomfort or downtime.

What to Expect
on the Day of
Renuvion Treatment

As part of your consultation process, you and Dr. Gentile will decide the best anesthesia option for your treatment together. Local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia can be utilized to enhance your peace of mind and comfort during your session.

Once you are relaxed and resting, your provider will create a small incision, inserting the Renuvion wand to emit cutting-edge radiofrequency energy. The RF warming contracts the skin’s deeper layers, accomplishing powerful remodeling of the body’s contours. Simultaneously, the device emits cooling helium plasma to reduce the risk of tissue damage. Renuvion’s temperature output is carefully monitored to ensure a seamless and stress-free treatment experience.

Renuvion Recovery

After your Renuvion session in Youngstown or Akron, you may encounter mild swelling and redness in the targeted areas. These side effects usually last no more than one week. The best thing you can do to extend and protect your results is to follow a healthy lifestyle, avoiding smoking and weight fluctuations. Use sunscreen anytime you are exposed to the sun’s harmful UV rays, and try to minimize stress and poor sleep as much as possible.

To make the most of your Renuvion session, follow these important tips:

  • Stay out of the sun for at least 2 weeks after your appointment
  • Don’t engage in strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for 1-2 weeks
