Fibroblast Plasma Pen

 


✚ What is a Fibroblast Plasma Pen treatment?

  • It is a non-surgical procedure for skin tightening and lifting of face and body with a plasma device.
  • Plasma is made from Nitrogen gas made in the air, after positively charged ions are magnetized with electric charge, and transmitted into a beam through the device pen.
  • Plasma is then then transmitted onto the skin’s surface without touching the skin. In general it does not work if it is too far from th skin or touches the sking.

✚ How Does Fibroblast Plasma Pen Work?

  • Plasma pen creates micro-traumas in the skin (dermis and epidermis), by creating little dots in the tissue without open wounds.
  • Small blood cloths form over the treatment dots, and later become covered with small scabs on the top.
  • Within the next 3 months skin produces collagen type-I, replacing the old loose colagen type-III in the skin, resulting in skin rejuvenation and skin tightening.
  • Increases production of elastin and growth factors resulting in increased skin elasticity and skin tightening.

✚ After Treatment & Recovery?

  • Treatment Day: Numbing of the skin will be done when you arrive to the appointment with BLT cream applied topically for 45 minutes to decreased pain and discomfort. After numbing Fibroblast Plasma Pen will be used to rapidly create multiple dots over the selected treatment areas.
  • Days 1-3: As dots heel, tiny little scabs appear on the post treated area. They don’t hurt but can itch a little bit as they heal, therefore we recommend topical creams to decrease itching. Avoid picking the dots as the scabs begin to lift and darken between days 2 and 3, to decrease ther risk of hyperpigmentation complications.
  • Days 4-5: The tiny scabs fall off leaving tiny pink dots on the skin, and the itching decreases to minimal. After the scabs fall off, you can start wearing your regular makeup.
  • Days 5 and after: The skin continues to heal staring the process of collagen formation for the next 3 months, but some improvement in wrinkles are seen afer 1 week.
