PLASMA PEN INFO
What is the Plasma treatment?
It is a non-invasive/non-surgical procedure with the same or comparable results as traditional surgery. Before the treatment the topical anaesthetic is applied, ensuring a painless procedure. A partial effect can be seen immediately after the treatment. You need to wait for 6-8 weeks to see the perfect results. The procedure can be carried out only by a certified specialist, Selfie Beautique is fully certified.
How does it work?
The principle is to ionize gases in the air to create a small electrical arch. When the electrical arch – plasma – touches the skin surface, the heat widens the acne and is transferred into the epidermis all the way to the papillary layer which contains fibroblast cells. The result is contraction and tightening of the skin cells. Consequently, the excess skin is reduced and the result is comparable to lifting or wrinkle reduction.
How long does the treatment take?
First, the topical anaesthetic (cream) is applied, minimizing the risk of pain. The anaesthetic takes effect 20-60 minutes after the application. The procedure itself does not take long, 20-30 minutes depending on the area. The duration of the treatment (with anaesthetic application): 60-90 minutes.
Is the procedure painful?
Plasma 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 up to 3-4 days. The small scabs should not be touched and you should wait for 5-10 days for them to fall off naturally. DONT SCRATCH THE SCABS. during the procedure the clients may feel some discomfort, not actual pain, depending on the treated area of the face/body.
What are the most common procedures?
- Eyelid lift (upper, lower).
- Resurfacing of wrinkled areas (crows feet, labial, nasolabial, worry lines, smile lines, neck and chin.
- Ear area.
Is plasma treatment safe?
the treatment is very safe, as it is a non-surgical procedure. It has a negligible amount of possible side effects and serious complications alike. The procedure is based on the natural stimulation of skin regeneration. The plasma treatment takes a very short time, with stress on the aftercare, as, in case the client neglects the instructions for aftercare, the treated are may suffer from: inflammation, hyper-pigmentation, scarring…
Are there any possible side effects of the plasma treatment?
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. Minor swelling after treating the area around the eyes is normal and will disappear after 3-5 days, depending on the client’s sensitivity.
May I use makeup after the plasma treatment?
Do not use makeup after the treatment, as it generally is not sterile. First 5-7 days after the treatment or until the scabs fall off. When the scabs fall off, you may apply some makeup if necessary.
Are the results visible immediately after the treatment?
The results are visible immediately after the treatment, but we have to inform the client that the maximum results will be visible after 3-4 weeks when the skin enters the third phase of the healing – collagen and connective tissue growth. End results follow after 8 weeks after the treatment.
How many treatments are required for a perfect result?
It depends on the state of the client’s skin and the desired degree of correction. The client is often satisfied after only one treatment, of course if, eg. the wrinkles are not very deep, but due to the simplicity of the procedure the clients opt for two or even three treatments to achieve a perfect result. The procedure may be repeated after 2 months. Generally 2 sessions are required.
How long will the effect of the plasma treatment last?
The results of the Plasma 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. Facial lines (worry lines) these may recur quickly because muscles are stronger than the skin and consequently the lines recur. Average results last up to 2 years.
