Renuvion is a cosmetic procedure that uses plasma energy to tighten loose, sagging skin.
Whether it’s caused by weight loss or as a result of the natural aging process, wrinkled, loose skin is a cosmetic concern for many of our clients. One popular minimally invasive solution is Renuvion, a technology that uses plasma energy to tighten and revitalize lax, aging skin.
Located in Greenville, SC, Advanced Cosmetic Surgery is your destination for Renuvion skin tightening in the Upstate. Learn more about Renuvion by BOOKING A CONSULTATION with one of our experts.
What Is Renuvion?
Renuvion, previously known as J-Plasma, uses plasma energy to tighten loose skin. A thin tube is inserted beneath the skin’s surface to deliver a stream of helium gas energized with radio frequency energy which briefly and rapidly heats the target area. This heat causes loose or sagging skin to contract, instantly reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
In the months following treatment, your skin will produce higher levels of collagen, a key protein for skin elasticity and firmness, and your results will continue to develop and improve.
Renuvion can be performed on its own or as a non-FDA-approved adjunct treatment to a surgical procedure such as liposuction or a tummy tuck.

Advanced Cosmetic Surgery Reviews
I had a full-face laser resurfacing done by Abby. I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, her care, and her kindness. My experience at Advanced Cosmetic Surgery has been excellent, and I have found all the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly.
Dr. Peter Felice and his team of support have been unbelievable throughout my process. Choosing to get plastic surgery of any kind is a big decision. I felt so supported, I was given excellent details on pre and post care, and I was treated with dignity and respect. My surgery went super smooth, and everyone on staff including my nurse and anesthesiologist were as superb as Dr. Felice. I cannot wait to see the full results, but most of all I’m so happy to be home with my family healing joyfully. 5 stars all the way every day to this team!
I’ve seen several people here and everyone of them were very nice and knowledgeable. This is the best place to be to get any kind of skin needs or any procedure done. They are all excellent at what they do.
Advanced Cosmetic Surgery is my go-to place, and NP Morgan is an absolute magician! I've been seeing her for over 2 years, and no one has ever come close to her skill with just a small amount of product. When my old friends see me, they can't even tell I've had work done, and they always ask for my secrets to staying so youthful. At first, I jokingly tell them it's JLo's Vaseline trick, but then I let them in on the real deal!My husband even jokes that kissing me now feels like he's dating a supermodel--he keeps looking around for the paparazzi! If you want to ditch those wrinkles without looking overdone, book an appointment with Morgan ASAP! Plus, she's super sweet, making the whole experience enjoyable and surprisingly minimally painful. Who knew looking fabulous could be this fun?

Frequently Asked Questions
How many treatments are needed?
Renuvion requires just a single session for excellent results. You may also choose to have additional treatments every few years to maintain your results.
Is Renuvion painful?
During treatment, you’ll be under general anesthesia or oral sedation. The type of anesthesia used depends on several factors including how extensive the treatment is, the area being treated and whether Renuvion is being performed alongside a surgical procedure.
Afterward, you’ll either be prescribed medication or take an over-the-counter pain medication.
Is Renuvion safe for all skin tones?
Yes, Renuvion is can be safely performed on all skin tones.
Will I have scars after treatment?
With Renuvion, your scars will be virtually invisible – in fact, this procedure is sometimes called a scarless surgery.
Ideal Candidates for Renuvion
Renuvion is an effective solution for healthy men and women of all ages with mild-to-moderate skin laxity.
If you have very loose skin or excess skin due to rapid weight loss, while not FDA-approved, Renuvion in conjunction with another BODY CONTOURING PROCEDURE can be more effective than Renuvion on its own.
What to Expect From Your Renuvion Treatment
First, you’ll SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION with one of our board-certified plastic surgeons to ensure your candidacy. They’ll provide you with instructions for preparing for treatment, including discontinuing certain medications and making lifestyle changes such as stopping smoking.
During your Renuvion procedure, you’ll receive either a local anesthetic or general anesthesia, depending on how extensive the treatment is and whether another procedure is being performed at the same time.
Your plastic surgeon will make small incisions at the treatment site or sites and insert a cannula, which delivers helium plasma to briefly heat and instantly tighten the skin. This heat will be administered throughout the treatment area, then the cannula will be removed and the incisions sutured closed. On average, a Renuvion procedure takes about 1 hour.
Recovery and aftercare
Afterwards, you’ll experience soreness, swelling and bruising at the incision sites. Follow all instructions from your provider with regard to changing bandages and caring for your incisions. Patient recovery times vary, but are typically in the range of 2–3 weeks.
