Plasma Fibroblast Facial Treatment Important Information/FAQ

How does Plasma Fibroblast work? The device has a probe that doesn't make-contact with the skin, the precision probe works by utilizing the voltage in the air between the device tip and skin to release a plasma voltage charge. This electrical stream, or arc, instantly shrinks the skin back deep into the dermis by a small dot which forms a tiny carbon scab on the targeted area, many of these dots close together gives the skin retraction and skin tightening that are comparable to invasive surgery.

What to expect on the day of your treatment? You don't want to wear make-up or use any moisturizers on your day of treatment. Just come in with clean-skin. We suggest taking a non-drowsy antihistamine one hour before your appointment and continue to take antihistamines for two to three days after your appointment. This will reduce swelling in the treatment area. A numbing agent is placed on the treatment area and left to take effect for 30 to 55 minutes. When the area is sufficiently numb the treatment area will begin. During the treatment you will feel some heat and minor discomfort. Treatment time will last from 35 minutes and up to 2 hours depending on the size of the treatment area. During your first appointment you will be given aftercare instructions. Following these instructions is critical for best results. No exfoliators or harsh cleansers or chemicals can be used in the week following treatment. We recommend a pH balanced cleanser such a Cetaphil or CeraVe. You should also avoid rubbing or scratching the treated area.

How long does the treatment take? 2 hours.

What is the downtime? No downtime.

How long do the results last? When done properly you can expect results to last as long, as they would with an invasive surgery. Like any surgical procedure the effects aren't entirely permanent and won't stop the ageing process. However, the results you get should last you for many years. The positive effect of the Plasma Fibroblast treatment will be noticeable almost immediately after the first treatment and continuing over 4 weeks. Depending on the body part treated and expected results, an additional treatment may be required after 6 to 12 weeks. Negative lifestyle choices such as too much sun, smoking, excess alcohol consumption is discouraged in order to maintain long lasting results, be aware that personal genetics can possibly have an effect with the length of treatment benefits.

Do estheticians need to be trained, to provide this treatment? Yes, absolutely & you must be a licensed professional to administer this treatment.

Post treatment? Final results are visible 6-12 weeks after treatment. Follow up treatments may be performed after 6 to 8 weeks depending on your skin's healing. Follow up treatments are often offered at a discount.

Side effects? Plasma Fibroblast has been shown to be a safe and a non-invasive procedure in thousands of clients/patients. However, as with most cosmetic/esthetic procedures, clients/patients are likely to experience some minor side effects in the first five to ten days after treatment. There will be some tiny brown marks; scabs in the treatment area. This is the result of scabbing and will flake away over a week or so, exposing a pink layer of healthy new skin. Some clients/patients will also experience three to five days of swelling, especially with eyelid treatments. To avoid any more serious side effects such as hyperpigmentation, follow the aftercare instruction given to you prior to your treatment.
