At North Florida Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, Dr. David Mateo is proud to be the only Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon in Gainesville, Florida, to offer Renuvion®, the #1 trusted skin tightening and body contouring technology used by plastic surgeons across the country.
Renuvion is FDA-cleared both for use after liposuction and for contracting subcutaneous soft tissue. This treatment helps patients achieve smoother, firmer contours by directly addressing one of the biggest challenges after fat removal or weight loss: loose, sagging skin.
Non-surgical skin tightening for face, neck, and body
Stimulates collagen production for long-lasting firmness
Minimal downtime and mild discomfort
Ideal for sagging skin from aging or weight loss
Renuvion is a minimally invasive technology that contracts collagen-rich tissue beneath the skin. Using a unique combination of radiofrequency (RF) energy and helium plasma, the device delivers controlled heat that tightens loose skin while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.
This results in improved skin elasticity and a more defined, youthful appearance. Unlike traditional skin tightening procedures that may require large incisions or more downtime, Renuvion works from beneath the skin through very small access points, offering powerful results with less scarring and faster recovery.


Renuvion can be performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of treatment and patient preference. Through tiny incision points, the wand is inserted beneath the skin to deliver radiofrequency energy and helium plasma directly to collagen fibers. This process contracts the tissue immediately while also stimulating long-term collagen remodeling, known as neocollagenesis.


Renuvion is versatile and FDA-cleared for skin tightening anywhere on the body. Common treatment areas include:
While liposuction effectively removes unwanted fat, some patients are left with skin laxity that prevents them from fully enjoying their slimmer results. During liposuction, fat is removed from beneath the skin, which can leave behind a gap between the skin and the underlying muscle. This is where Renuvion works best, by contracting collagen fibers, it pulls the skin closer to the muscle and enhances the overall contour. When performed in combination with liposuction, Renuvion helps:





Ideal candidates for Renuvion are men and women who struggle with loose or sagging skin due to aging, weight loss, pregnancy, or following liposuction. Patients should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about their results. During your consultation, our surgeons will evaluate your skin quality, review your goals, and recommend whether Renuvion alone or in combination with another procedure is best for you.


Patients notice firmer, smoother skin within weeks, with continued improvement up to six months as collagen develops. Results are subtle, natural, and long-lasting, enhancing overall appearance and confidence.
