PLASMA PEN
Plasma Pen Fibroblasting
for wrinkles, Sagging, and scars
Plasma Pen is the newest cosmetic procedure to combat wrinkles, loss of collagen, and sagging skin. As we age, the dermal layer of our skin thins, we produce less collagen, and we lose elasticity. All of these factors produce sagging and wrinkling of the skin. The Plasma Pen is a soft-surgery procedure targeting a wide variety of skin conditions including loss of elasticity, sagging, and wrinkles that have been traditionally treated with fillers or plastic surgery.
WHAT IS THE PLASMA PEN?
Plasma Pen is the world’s most advanced, non-invasive, skin lifting, skin tightening and rejuvenation device used to treat wrinkles, and sagging, dull skin. The Plasma Pen is an FDA approved device used to perform fibroblast therapy, a technique used to stimulate production of collagen in the skin.
WHAT AREAS OF THE BODY CAN BE TREATED WITH PLASMA PEN?
Fibroblasting produces excellent results for any area of the body, particularly the face and neck regions.
Accordion Lines – the lines that form outside of the mouth when you smile
Acne Scars – improvement in the appearance of post-acne marks and scars
Crow’s Feet Around Eyes
Forehead Lines
Jowl / Jawline Tightening
Marionette Lines – the creases or folds that run vertically from the corners of the mouth down to the chin
Nasal Labial Folds / Smile Lines – the folds that run from the sides of your nose down to the edge of your mouth
Necklines, Turkey Neck
Smoker’s Lines – those vertical wrinkles also known as lipstick lines around the mouth
Stretchmarks
Upper/Lower Eyelids – bags and hoods
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?
Plasma Pen skin tightening results are impressive but should not be proposed as an alternative to surgery in cases of moderate to severe skin laxity. Only surgery can achieve these kinds of results. You will typically see immediate tightening along with cumulative improvements over the next three months in the appearance of saggy skin. In some cases, it may require more than one session depending on the desired results.
IS THE PLASMA PEN TREATMENT PAINFUL?
Plasma Pen is mildly to moderately uncomfortable. Everyone’s pain level is different and some areas of the body are more sensitive than others. Numbing cream is helpful in reducing the discomfort during treatment.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF THE PLASMA PEN TREATMENT?
The Plasma Pen is a relatively safe treatment, particularly when compared to more invasive cosmetic procedures. However, no procedure is without risks and it’s important to review and understand the contraindications and risks. It is important for anyone considering fibroblasting treatment to carefully review the Plasma Pen Contraindications, Plasma Pen Aftercare Instructions, risks, and skin types that can be safely treated. Risks include:
Swelling/Bruising
Scabbing/Crusting
Skin Discoloration
Scarring
WHAT DOWNTIME CAN I EXPECT AFTER MY PLASMA PEN TREATMENT?
There IS downtime. “Downtime” is very subjective. What you think “looks bad” and/or is “uncomfortable” can be very different from someone else’s perception. If you are comparing it to cosmetic surgery, then no, the downtime is minimal. If you are comparing it to a light chemical peel where no one can tell you did anything and you are just a bit flaky everywhere, then no. In most cases, initial results are visible immediately after treatment. In the first stages of healing, small dry spots called echars form on the skin and remain there for about a week before falling off. This is normal and temporary.
Redness, swelling and scabbing in the treatment area
Average of 8 days downtime on the face and neck areas
Average of 10 to 14 days on the body, depending on the area being treated and the intensity of the treatment
Swelling usually begins the day following your treatment, and peaks around day 3
After day 3, swelling subsides and scabs form
Scabs normally begin to fall off around day 6 and 7 (for face and neck)
