Plasma Fibroblast Skin tightening

Fibroblast Plasma Skin Tightening is a cosmetic treatment that uses plasma, an ionized gas, to non-surgically tighten skin. A relatively new innovation in the beauty industry in North America, Fibroblast Skin Tightening has been used for a number of years in Europe. This minimally invasive procedure is often described as “soft surgery” as the treatment delivers amazing results without the use of a scalpel, stitch, or bandage and it highly effective at treating fine lines, crow’s feet, wrinkles, age spots, sun spots, and skin tags, as well as reducing excess lower eyelid skin. With Fibroblast Tightening you can improve the appearance of scarring, including post-surgery scars and acne scars; diminish stretch marks; tighten loose stomach skin after pregnancy; and reduce lines and wrinkles around the mouth. 

 “This treatment is SUITABLE FOR ALL SKIN TONES ON THE Fitzpatrick Scales”

HOW DOES PLasma Skin Tightening work?

Plasma skin tightening is relatively new in North America but has been safely and effectively performed in Europe for many years.  The precision device works by utilizing the voltage in the air between the device tip and skin to release a plasma charge.  This electrical stream, or arc, instantly shrinks the skin in the targeted area.  The tissue retraction give results that are comparable to invasive surgery.

HOW LONG DOES PLASMA SKIN TIGHTENING LAST?

Fibroblast Plasma Skin Tightening is more than a simple skin tightening treatment, so the effects should last as long as they would with invasive surgery. Like all surgical and cosmetic procedures, the effects of Fibroblast Treatment are not entirely permanent, as it does not stop further aging. The positive effects of the procedure will be noticeable immediately after the first treatment, but the best results will be seen by the 8th to 12th week as the skin has had time to go through a full regenerative cycle. This is dependent on age and each individual’s overall healing abilities, on the specific area being treated, the skin’s laxity, and individual response to treatment. Additionally, there are lifestyle factors that can prevent the result from lasting as long as they can, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and prolonged sun exposure. For some, an additional treatment may be required after 8 weeks for maximum results. Those planning on treatment should also be aware that their race and genetics can also have an effect of the length of beneficial effects.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?

What Can I expect after treatment?

Immediately after treatment, there may be a burning sensation. This will usually resolve during the remainder of the day although if it is particularly uncomfortable or persists for a longer period, then an anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen can be taken. Swelling is common. This can be significant around the eyes and can last for several days and may lead to interference with vision in the initial period.Final results depend on severity of skin laxity or size of lesion, the desired result, the general condition of the skin and any pre-existing skin or medical problems. Reduction in skin folds and creases appear immediately. The tiny dark brown spots flake off over the following one to three weeks and the skin will heal within a similar period. Swelling is common and can be quite pronounced around the eyes, often worse the following morning and lasting for several days. The area may be tender as it is healing and may scab. It is important to allow any spots or scabs to fall off naturally otherwise scarring or infection may occur. As the treated skin is sublimated, the results often last years or permanently.

Are there any side effects?

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, so the excesses which may be seen in the world of traditional surgery are not possible. The Fibroblast treatment takes a very short time, with stress on the aftercare, as, in case the client neglects the instructions for aftercare.
