Plasma Fibroblast

Plasma Fibroblast is a revolutionary cosmetic treatment because it offers an alternative to invasive surgical procedures.

A non-surgical treatment that can be applied with absolute precision to areas that other treatments might not be able to target as effectively, Plasma Fibroblast delivers results with the advantage of minimal downtime and low risk of infection. For example, the Plaxpot Plasma Pen allows you to treat areas such as eyelids that generally can’t be treated with other modalities (e.g — laser, RF or IPL) within a salon or clinic environment.

Results from Plasma Fibroblast are also faster and more significant than those that can be achieved by microneedling and laser alone; results can be seen for up to 18-24 months with as little as two or three treatments, and minimal maintenance is required.

Plasma Fibroblast is an innovative development in aesthetic treatments using the fourth state of matter — Plasma (the first 3 being solids, liquids + gas). The treatment is delivered using an electronic handpiece (the plasma pen) containing a small metal probe, that when exposed to atmospheric gas (nitrogen) produces a tiny plasma flash between the device tip and the client’s skin.

This tiny superficial thermal trauma causes the skin in its vicinity to tighten and lift — giving results that are immediately noticeable after just one treatment. Over the next 90 days the elasticity of the skin and the skin tightening effects will continue to progress as the healing of the dermis promotes the production of new collagen and elastin.

The device is a single-patient use, sterile needle where THE NEEDLE DOES NOT PENETRATE THE SKIN AT ANY POINT.

This will depend on several factors, including the amount of skin laxity and the age, and the health of the client. On average 2 to 4 treatments are required per area. You will see a great result even after 1 treatment however for the longevity of the treatment minimum 2 sessions are recommended.

On average for 2-4 years, however as everybody continues to age and even though collagen lasts a few years, the continuous ageing process will mean maintenance sessions will be required.

• Swelling is completely normal. For the first 48 hrs the area should be kept dry. You MUST NOT get the area wet for the first 48 hours. Avoid vigorous exercise as this will increase swelling.
• Do NOT scratch or pick any of the superficial crusting on the surface. You will increase risk of infection and scarring if you pick the scabs. Let them exfoliate on their own.
• If you experience itching, an over the counter antihistamine may be helpful
• Be patient, the healing part is a process. Take time to rest, sleep and heal.
• Oedema (swelling) may also occur. Sleeping on 2 pillows with your head elevated helps.
• Do not apply ANY other creams, ointments or products of any kind on face until you are told it is ok to do so.
• Avoid exposing the treatment area to the sun as this could result in pigmentation, Once all Plasma Dots have shed SPF 50+ must be worn daily.
• Do not apply any make-up (even mineral) for the first 4 days or until the scabbing or peeling is complete (about 7-10 days)
• Avoid skin treatments such as Microdermabrasion, Chemical Peels, Skin Needling or any Laser treatments for 4-6 weeks after the treatment. (Please check in with you Practitioner Prior to any of these treatments)
