Plasma Skin Tightening is able to treat a number of imperfections without any actual cutting of the skin.

How long do the results last for?

The results of the treatment are permanent and may be visible for years. However, the aging process is continuous and thus the skin ages every day, this cannot be stopped. For example, when we talk about mimic facial lines, these may recur over time because muscles are stronger than the skin. Average results last from 2 to 4 years.

How many treatments are needed for the perfect results?

It depends on the state of the clients’ skin and the desired degree of correction. The client is often satisfied after only one treatment, for example, if the wrinkles are not very deep. But, due to the simplicity of the procedure and the affordable price, many clients opt for two or even three treatments to achieve a perfect result. The procedure may be repeated after the skin is fully regenerated, so 90 days after the first procedure.

What to expect after the treatment?

Immediately after treatment the area will be red and mildly swollen with small crustations and discoloration. You may experience a sensation similar to a sun burn which will likely last a few hours. Swelling may intensify over the following few hours and more so when eyes are treated and may last 3-5 days. The crustations/discoloration should resolve within 5 -12 days depending on the individual and area treated. Results are seen instantly after the treatment, although this gradually improves over the course of the following the next 90 days. Essentially there is downtime, but it is considerably less then with surgery.
