A plasma lift consist of using an instrument which produces an electrostatic impulse (plasma blasts). The instrument does not touch the skin. The impulse (electrical arch) hits the skin and creates tiny dots on the skin that causes the skin to contract, and tighten. This procedure also produces collagen, which leads to skin rejuvenation, and elastin, which also tightens the skin.

Is there downtime ?

The tiny dots will be red and a little swollen after the treatment 5-7 days later, they will crust over and fall off. 7-14 days later the dots may appear white, as they continue to heal. Once healed, they will disappear completely. Some redness in the dots may remain and can last several months while the skin healsbbThere is no bruising or bleeding during or after the treatment.
Will a Plasma Fibroblast Treatment make thin skin even thinner?
Having a treatment will not make thin skin thinner. This Plasma treatment actually helps create collagen, which plumps up the skin.
Should people who are frequently in the sun receive a Plasma Treatment?
Yes, but ONLY if they are compliant with using sunscreen protection every day. Sunbathing should be avoided directly following a treatment and while the skin is healing to reduce any chance of hyper pigmentation. This should be a 12 week period from day of treatment
