Understanding Renuvion

Renuvion is an advanced, minimally invasive treatment that uses a unique combination of radiofrequency (RF) energy and helium plasma to tighten skin and improve facial contours. It works beneath the skin’s surface to contract tissue, stimulate collagen production, and enhance firmness—without the need for large incisions or extended downtime.

Dr. Iyengar offers Renuvion as a modern solution for men seeking subtle, natural-looking results with minimal recovery time. It’s an ideal option for patients looking to address mild to moderate skin laxity in areas like the lower face, jawline, neck, and cheeks.

When should I consider renuvion?

Renuvion may be right for you if you’re experiencing early signs of facial aging—such as mild sagging along the jawline, loose skin under the chin, or general skin laxity—but you’re not quite ready for a facelift. It’s also a great solution for enhancing the results of procedures like liposuction or neck contouring by tightening the overlying skin.

Patients appreciate Renuvion for its natural-looking results and ability to delay or avoid more invasive surgery.

What are the details of this procedure?

Renuvion is performed through tiny, hidden entry points. A thin wand is inserted just beneath the skin to deliver RF energy combined with helium gas, creating a precise plasma effect that contracts and tightens the underlying tissue.

The treatment is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, or in combination with other facial procedures. It usually takes less than an hour, depending on the areas treated.

Why choose Dr. Iyengar for this procedure?

Dr. Iyengar uses Renuvion as part of his advanced skin-tightening toolkit, offering patients the latest in facial rejuvenation technology. With his experience in both surgical and non-surgical treatments, he carefully selects candidates who will benefit from Renuvion and ensures the treatment is performed safely, effectively, and with artistic precision.

What does recovery look like?

Recovery is relatively quick compared to surgical alternatives. Most patients experience mild swelling or bruising for a few days and are back to normal activities within a week. A compression garment may be recommended for certain areas to support healing and maximize results.

Skin tightening begins immediately, but collagen production continues over the following 3–6 months—meaning results continue to improve over time. The result is firmer, smoother skin with better tone and definition.

Dr Iyengar did a repair on an old eyelid surgery. Him and his staff were a pleasure to work with and I could not be happier with the results!

Dr. Raj Iyengar is awesome!!! I had 3 areas of botox today (glabella, crow's feet, and forehead). I had absolutely no pain and zero bruising. He was very informative throughout the procedure, and very kind. A great experience

I am 6 days post brow lift, blephraplasty, nanofat transfer, and neck lipo with Renuvion, and I already see a significant difference. I am SO excited already, and I’m still healing. Dr Iyengar has an incredible bed side manner, remembers little details about his patients, and has an impeccable résumé. I made the right choice trusting him with my face!

I’m glad to have this doctor and his staff on my side. When I heard the words skin cancer I went through a WIDE verity of feelings. I got worse case scenario and it scared me. After some reassurance I felt much better. I’m amazed at the complexity of the surgery and how well everything went. Just 6 weeks after surgery I’m feeling much better about the future look that everyone will see when they see my smiling face. Thanks Dr. Iyengar. I’ll share photos with anyone interested.
