What to expect at your appointment
As with any aesthetic procedure, it is absolutely essential that a full and comprehensive consultation is performed prior to any treatment. The consultation will always include your past medical and surgical history, lifestyle, allergies and medications. You will be asked to describe your concerns/problem areas and by having a thorough and honest conversation, we will plan your treatment journey.
Treatment with Plasma Pen requires the application of topical numbing cream. The treatment itself requires skill and an attention to detail which in turn requires time. You should allow 2 hours for a standard treatment. See below a photo of the ‘dotting’;
What are the results?
The tightening and lifting effects of the treatment are instant. You can expect the carbon crusts to remain for up to a week. The healing response that is initiated takes place over the coming 12 weeks; the skin is tighter, firmer, lifted and resurfaced and wrinkles are reduced. More than one treatment may be required.
What are the risks?
While treatments with Plasma Pen are safe, risks include;
- Swelling and bruising
- Scabbing and crusting
- Skin discoloration
- Scarring
