How long is the downtime of the procedure?
Downtime in regards to Fibroblast Skin Tightening or Plasma Soft Surgery will depend a lot on your skin. We suggest that most clients will take about 7 days before all of the swelling will have gone down. However the deeper layers of the skin will still be in the healing process for over 6 weeks and during this period the results of the skin tightening treatment will continue to improve. Minimum of six weeks between treatments.
We suggest Mineral Make-up for the period when you are healing and appropriate clothing to disguise the small marks left by the plasma pen.
How many treatments will I need to see desired results?
On average we suggest that clients will want to purchase a package of 3-5 treatments. This completely depends on the condition of the dermis. Some clients with less severe cases and those with Skin Tag Removal may only require one session.
How long does the treatment take?
First, the topical anesthetic (cream) is applied, minimizing the risk of pain and numbing the treated area. The anesthetic takes effect 20 minutes after the application. The procedure itself does not last long, 20–30 minutes depending on the area. The duration of the treatment (with anesthetic application): 60–90 minutes.
Is any special pretreatment needed?
Two weeks prior to treatment suspend all use of retinol or acid products. It is advisable that you remove any cosmetic products on the area to be treated and gently exfoliate before coming in. During the consultation you should mention all recent surgical or aesthetic procedures. No Botox or fillers 4 weeks prior to treatment. We also recommend that you avoid any sun exposure for up to 2 weeks prior to the treatment and at least 2 weeks after treatment.
Is the procedure painful?
Plasma Lift-Skin Tightening is a non-invasive procedure with minimal level of pain. It is virtually painless, as the treated area is numbed before the treatment. After the treatment, the treated area is red (7–14 days) and some patients may experience some swelling, which may last 3–4 days. At the site of each spot a small crust will form. They should be kept dry, not be touched and you should wait for 4–5 days for them to fall off naturally. During the procedure the client may feel some discomfort, not actual pain, depending on the treated area of the face/body.
Are there any possible side effects of the Plasmalift skin tightening treatment?
The Plasma Lift-Skin Tightening treatment is an exceptionally safe procedure. Possible side effects are inflammation, scarring or minor change in skin pigmentation, which is very rare. It is highly important for each client to follow the instructions for aftercare closely. Crusts which occur after the treatment are part of the treatment and will fall off after 4–5 days. Minor swelling after treating the area around the eyes is normal and will disappear after 3–5 days, depending on the client’s sensitivity.
How long will the effects of the Plasmalift skin tightening treatment last?
The results of the Plasmalift skin tightening treatment are permanent and may be visible for years. But, we should acknowledge that the aging process is continuous and thus the skin ages every day after the procedure and this cannot be stopped. The results of this method are permanent, but when we talk about facial expression lines (worry lines) these may recur quickly because muscles are stronger than the skin and consequently the lines recur. Average results may last from 2-4 years
