Renuvion: FDA-Cleared Skin Tightening Alternative

At 9201 Park, the private, state-of-the-art center of renowned plastic surgeon Dr. John Burns, we believe feeling confident in your skin shouldn’t require major surgery. That’s why we’re proud to offer Renuvion Skin Tightening—a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment designed to lift, smooth, and firm your skin with little to no downtime.

Whether you’re noticing loose skin on your neck, arms, stomach, or jawline, Renuvion can help gently restore a more youthful contour—without the scars or extended recovery of traditional procedures.

What Is Renuvion?

Renuvion uses a precise combination of gentle energy and heat to firm the skin from the inside out. It’s especially effective for:

-Loose or “crepey” skin after weight loss or pregnancy
-Mild to moderate skin laxity in the neck, arms, thighs, or stomach
-Smoothing and tightening after liposuction
-Subtle jawline and facial tightening without surgery

Instead of large incisions or stitches, Renuvion works through tiny openings that are easily hidden. Most treatments take just 1–2 hours and are performed under light sedation or general anesthesia in our fully accredited surgical facility.

What Kind of Results Can You Expect?

Many women see early improvements in tightness right away, with the most noticeable results developing gradually over 6 to 9 months as your skin builds more collagen. On average, patients experience 25–35% tighter skin—a meaningful difference, especially in areas where fat removal alone (like liposuction) can’t address sagging skin.

And yes—the results are long-lasting, especially when paired with a healthy lifestyle.

Perfect Together: Renuvion + Liposuction

Liposuction is great at removing unwanted fat, but it doesn’t tighten the skin. That’s where Renuvion shines. When paired together, they offer a powerful one-two punch: slimming down stubborn areas and firming up the skin for smoother, more defined results—particularly in the abdomen, neck, arms, thighs, and back.

What’s Recovery Like?

After the procedure, most women return to light activity in just a few days. You may have some swelling or soreness, but these typically fade within 1–2 weeks. We recommend wearing a compression garment for a few weeks to support healing and maximize results.

Is Renuvion Right for You?

You may be a good candidate for Renuvion if you:

- Want firmer, smoother skin but don’t want traditional surgery
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity
- Are close to your ideal weight
- Want to look more refreshed and defined without long recovery times

If you have more significant loose skin, a surgical procedure like a tummy tuck or facelift may be a better option. During your consultation, Dr. Burns will help determine the best approach for your unique desires and body type.
