Bovie Medical Corporation

Bovie Medical Corporation was an American medical device company based in Clearwater, Florida, founded in 1978. It specialized in electrosurgical products and advanced energy technologies, taking its name from Dr. William T. Bovie, the inventor of the electrosurgical generator. The company offered a range of products, including electrosurgical generators, monopolar and bipolar devices, the Plazxact ablator, medical lighting, and colposcopes. A notable innovation was the J-Plasma technology, marketed under the Renuvion brand, which utilizes cold plasma energy for cosmetic and surgical applications. Bovie Medical served a diverse customer base, including hospitals, surgical centers, cosmetic surgery practices, and veterinary clinics. Its products aimed to enhance surgical outcomes by minimizing patient trauma and recovery time. In 2018, the company divested its core electrocautery business to focus on commercializing its advanced energy technologies. In 2019, it rebranded as Apyx Medical, reflecting its commitment to innovative plasma-based solutions in the cosmetic surgery market.
