K211652 (Apyx Medical Corporation (Formerly Bovie Medical Corporation, 2022)
The Renuvion® Dermal system is an electrosurgical device for dermatological procedures for the treatment of moderate to severe wrinkles and rhytides, limited to patients with Fitzpatrick skin types I, II or III. The treatment is achieved through controlled heating of the outer layers of the skin so that part or all the epidermis becomes non-viable and there is controlled thermal modification to the underlying dermis. The Renuvion® Dermal Handpiece is only compatible with Apyx Medical Electrosurgical Generators.

Overview
FDA-cleared 2022 for post-lipo laxity
How it worksTechnology and manufacturing
How the technology works
An electrosurgical generator energizes helium gas with RF to create a cool plasma stream at the tip of a wand passed under the skin through lipo incisions.
Plasma delivers intense heat for milliseconds, contracting the fibroseptal network and dermal underside, while flowing helium rapidly cools surrounding tissue — high peak contraction with less bulk heating than RF or laser. Used immediately after fat aspiration on neck, arms, abdomen, back, thighs.
Because helium is injected into a closed subcutaneous space, technique matters enormously — ports must vent; misuse has been linked to subcutaneous emphysema and rare gas embolism events.
Patented technology
Helium-based plasma generation riding on Apyx's Bovie electrosurgery heritage — essentially monopolar RF energy conducted through ionized helium for precise pulsed tissue heating.
Origin
USA — Apyx Medical (formerly Bovie Medical), Clearwater, Florida.
