When you’ve reached the point where you’re ready to do something about your loose skin and drooping features, but you’re not quite ready for cosmetic surgery, nonsurgical skin tightening offers an exciting solution. At The Oregon Clinic, Portland, OR board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sean McNally understands the desire to restore a more youthful look without the recovery time and other requirements of invasive cosmetic surgery and is proud to offer Renuvion® nonsurgical skin tightening. When used on the face and neck, Renuvion® skin tightening can help to take years off your look more conveniently than ever. Discover more about how Renuvion® works and what results may be possible for you in today’s blog.

How can I tighten loose neck skin without surgery?

There’s no denying the stunning, long-lasting results that can be achieved with a surgical neck lift, but not everyone is ready, willing, or able to undergo neck lift surgery. For patients who are interested in a nonsurgical treatment to address wrinkles, creases, and loose neck skin, Renuvion® is a popular choice. Renuvion® is a minimally invasive, nonsurgical treatment that causes loose skin to contract almost instantly while simultaneously igniting the production of new collagen and elastin, helping to further tighten and smooth the skin. In addition to firming the neck, Renuvion® can also rejuvenate the face for a more youthful, lifted, smoother look overall.

How does Renuvion® skin tightening work?

Once the treatment area has been sterilized and numbed, Dr. McNally will make one or more tiny incisions in the skin. The Renuvion® wand will then be inserted beneath the skin, delivering helium plasma energy to targeted layers of tissue, while radiofrequency (RF) energy is administered for precise heating. This process encourages collagen fibers to contract while stimulating new collagen to form, ultimately leading to a reduction in surface creases, lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity.

Will plasma skin tightening work for me?

Renuvion® skin tightening is most effective for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity and wrinkles. Patients with advanced signs of aging, like deep wrinkles and an excess of hanging skin, may benefit most from a surgical skin tightening or lifting procedure. Additionally, patients with darker skin tones may not be eligible for Renuvion® skin tightening. Prior to treatment, Dr. McNally will review your health and medical history, evaluate your skin type, discuss your specific concerns, and determine whether you may be a candidate for Renuvion® plasma skin tightening.

How long does Renuvion® neck tightening last?

For the longest-lasting results, use these helpful Renuvion® aftercare tips:

  • Avoid sun exposure
  • Do not smoke
  • Wear sunscreen
  • Use moisturizer
  • Drink plenty of water

Typically, Renuvion® erases 3-5 years worth of skin laxity changes. Despite the fact that this improvement is permanent, the aging process still continues as it does after any non-surgical and surgical skin tightening procedure.
