It is commonly used for delicate areas such as the eyelids, under-eyes, mouth area, jawline, neck, and areas where skin texture needs visible refinement.

RESULTS
Visible tightening. Refined skin texture.
Plasma treatment works by creating controlled treatment points that encourage skin tightening and renewal as the area heals.
Results develop gradually. The skin beneath the scabs is delicate and needs careful aftercare to support healing and reduce the risk of pigmentation or scarring.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is scabbing normal after Plasma?
Yes. Scabbing, redness, swelling, tenderness, tightening and blood spots can be part of the normal healing process.
Can I pick the scabs?
No. Picking or scratching scabs can cause them to come off prematurely and may increase the risk of scarring or pigmentation changes.
When can I exercise?
Avoid intense exercise and sweating for 4 days after the procedure.
How important is SPF?
SPF30+ is essential daily, even indoors or in overcast weather. Direct sun and UV exposure should be avoided for 3 months post treatment.
