Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
All Subjects
Subjects will be treated with the Renuvion Dermal System.
Renuvion Dermal System
The Renuvion® Dermal System consists of an electrosurgical generator unit, a handpiece with detachable standoffs, and a supply of helium gas. Radio Frequency (RF) energy is delivered to the handpiece by the electrosurgical generator unit and used to energize an electrode. When helium gas is passed over the energized electrode, a helium plasma is generated which allows for conduction of the RF energy from the electrode to the subject in the form of a precise helium plasma beam.
