Your Renuvion procedure can be done under local or general anesthesia, depending on your needs. Once the anesthetic has taken effect, Dr. Wingate will make small incisions in the treatment area. He will then insert the Renuvion probe just beneath the surface of the skin to emit helium plasma energy to deeply heat the underlying tissues.
The probe will deliver cold helium plasma simultaneously to help transfer the helium plasma energy and cool the treated tissues. Throughout your procedure, Dr. Wingate will maintain precise control over the temperature, timing, and movement of the device. This is critical to ensure a safe and effective treatment.
