Using a device held by the practitioner, plasma is generated at the targeted area of the device. During this process some visible smoke is produced, this is due to a process called sublimation, which is described merely as the shift from a solid to a gaseous state.

The device heats the outer layer of the dermis, resulting in to shed post-procedure and allowing a new layer to form in its place. As this layer regenerates with a fresher-looking skin surface, collagen and elastic is naturally produced by the body in response to this. Thus, further increasing the effects caused by this treatment. No thermal damage is caused during this process, nor is any electricity produced to shock you.

While you may be thinking of plasma associated with blood, this form of plasma is the fourth state of matter itself. Think of what a liquid, gas, and a solid is, then you have plasma; it is described as a liquified gas. Being neither a liquid, solid, or gas alone, it is considered the fourth state of matter. The more technical description to describe plasma is that the electrons are stripped from the atoms forming an ionized gas, which allows ions to move freely.

A lot of patients report starting to notice improvements in skin tightening within a few days post-treatment. However, you can expect to see more dramatic improvements in the treated areas around six weeks afterward. The average time at which the full outcome of the procedure can be visible is typically around the three-month mark after the treatment.

Depending on what you are trying to achieve, you may find that you will get further benefits from up to three treatments in succession to treat more difficult cosmetic concerns effectively. The recovery is fast as it’s a non-surgical procedure making this less daunting of a possibility.

One of the impressive things about plasma pen treatments is they can last for up to three years. This lasting period makes it a frequently considered option for those who are more budget conscious, and for those patients that just like to spend less time dealing with cosmetic issues and rather be enjoying themselves.

Compared to many alternatives, it is quite non-invasive. There is no cutting of the skin required and is quicker than surgical alternatives, while also lacking the need for general anaesthesia further reducing the intensity of the treatment and stress on patients.

The average length of treatment is around half an hour, which considering the results and the lasting period is hard to argue is a quick and impressive trade-off when it comes to time cost. Post-treatment, there is often a form of small scabs and slight swelling. This typically resolves quite quickly and the visible results begin to show soon after.

Considering the low time cost in both the treatment and recovery, along with the lasting period and excellent results that can be achieved it’s not surprising Plasma Pen Treatments are a common request by patients at our clinic.
