What is Plasma Fibroblast?

Plasma fibroblast treatment is a nonsurgical skin-tightening procedure that uses a high energy discharge to make a small wound in the skin. This can encourage cells known as fibroblasts to repair the skin and maintain firmness. Nonsurgical skin tightening is a relatively common procedure.

Plasma is ionized gas. That is, a gas made up positively charged, ionized particles. For this to occur, there must be a significant amount of energy flowing through the gas, freeing electrons, and allowing them to coexist with ions in the process.

When exposed to your skin, a targeted current of plasma creates the tiniest of wounds. This provides stimulation to fibroblasts in the deep layers of your skin. Fibroblasts are the cells that are responsible for generating and maintaining connective tissue, making them essential in healing wounds and producing collagen.

How long is the down time with Plasma Fibroblast Treatment?

The wounds also known as dots naturally fall off after 5 - 14 days, depending on the location of treatment. You will continue to see improved results for up to 2 months after the initial Plasma Fibroblast Lift.  But...According to a 2014 article published in the journal Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, the effects are expected to stimulate fibroblast production for up to 1 year after treatment and the results are known to last for 3 plus years. 

If you're planning to attend a special event, Give yourself plenty of time to heal a minimum of two weeks but three to four would be best.  Remember your dots will fall off in 5 to 14 days yet you will continue to see yourself looking younger for up to a year. 

What areas can be tightened by Plasma Fibroblast?

The areas of your skin that can be tightened is actually just about any area on your body. Here is a list of items that most people get tightened with plasma fibroblast skin tightening treatment

  • Eye Lids

Does Plasma Fibroblast hurt?

Your plasma fibroblast technician will apply a topical anesthetic. Each person is different, some do not feel any pain and may even fall asleep while others may feel a tingle or slight sting. If you still experience pain communicate with your technician and they can apply more anesthetic.  After the procedure from day 1 to day 3 you may feel like you have a sunburn and may see swelling. Around day 4 you typically you shouldn't feel much pain and will notice the dots may have darken but are starting to heal. .  As the plasma pen emits the plasma energy it tightens the skin and forms a carbonized crust on top of your skin this procedure wakens the fibroblasts that lay dormant within. As the fibroblasts wake up they help create more collagen and elastin. Typically by day 5 to 7 you should not feel any pain at all and will start seeing new skin.
