Goals

- Stimulate collagen and elastin production for improved skin elasticity and firmness.
- Promote skin rejuvenation and healing.
- Achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance without invasive surgery.
Procedure
The Plasma Pen procedure involves the following steps:
- Preparation: The skin is cleaned, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort.
- Treatment: The Plasma Pen device is used to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This is done by converting electrical energy into plasma, which is then applied to the skin in a precise manner.
- Post-Treatment: The treated area may be cooled, and a soothing serum may be applied. Patients are advised to follow specific aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing.
Duration
The duration of a Plasma Pen treatment session typically ranges from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the size of the area being treated and the specific concerns being addressed.
Side Effects and Complications
Common side effects of Plasma Pen treatments include:
- Redness and swelling: These usually subside within a few days.
- Peeling and crusting: The skin may peel and crust over as it heals, which can last for about a week.
- Pigmentation changes: There is a risk of hyperpigmentation, especially in individuals with darker skin tones.
- Temporary discomfort: Some patients may experience mild pain or discomfort during and after the procedure.
Longevity of Effects
The results of Plasma Pen treatments can last up to 3 years, depending on individual skin types and adherence to aftercare instructions. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
