Cold Plasma Skin Rejuvenation

Cold plasma treatment offers a number of advantages for those seeking effective rejuvenation of the skin without subjecting themselves to the risks and recovery time involved with more invasive procedures:

The procedure addresses a number of concerns of the skin simultaneously, including:

• Fine wrinkles and lines
• Loss of skin elasticity and firmness
  Unbalanced skin texture and tone
• Large pores
• Moderate to mild acne and acne scars
• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
• Dull, tired-looking complexion

Advanced Wound Healing

Recent scientific research, some of which has appeared in the European Journal of Medical Research, has shown cold plasma’s phenomenal ability to accelerate wound healing cycles. The therapy has been effective against:

• Chronic ulcers and wounds
• Scarring after surgery
• Inflammatory skin conditions
• Tissue regeneration

Unlike most aggressive skin treatments, cold plasma therapy:

Is painless with no needles or incisions

• Preserves the protective layer of the skin
• Can be used on sensitive types of skin
• Treats without thermally damaging adjacent tissues
• Offers controllable intensity of treatment for customized results

One of the numerous advantages of cold plasma therapy is the minimal downtime:

• Most patients are back to normal activities right away
• There is usually temporary mild redness that generally settles within hours
• Your skin might feel warm and tighter for a little while after the treatment
• Results start to emerge over the next few days and weeks as collagen remodelling happens

No, cold plasma treatment is generally described as comfortable with minimal sensation. The overwhelming majority of patients experience only a mild tingling or warmth feeling during treatment. Treatment is applied at near-body temperature and is extremely gentle on the skin.

Most patients notice an immediate change in skin luminosity and texture on their initial visit. The best improvement, though, comes from collagen remodeling taking place gradually over 2-3 months. Additional improvement occurs with the series of treatments.

Results typically last 6-12 months depending on your skin type, age, lifestyle habits, and maintenance regimen. Maintenance sessions done every 1-3 months can sustain and optimize the effects in the long term.

One of the most significant advantages of cold plasma therapy is that there is minimal downtime. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities immediately after treatment. Temporary redness can be minimal but will generally clear itself in a few hours.

What skin can be treated with cold plasma?
Cold plasma therapy is overall innocuous for all skin types and complexions (Fitzpatrick I-VI). This makes it a fantastic treatment option for individuals who are not optimal candidates for more aggressive therapies like some lasers or chemical peels.

Yes, cold plasma treatment works excellently in combination with complementary therapies such as LED light therapy, medical-grade skincare, or microneedling. Your practitioner will advise on the most effective combination for your specific concerns.

Although laser procedures use light energy, often in the form of thermal destruction to achieve a controlled injury, cold plasma functions by biochemical processes with little heat. This leads to lower risk of pigmentation issues, reduced discomfort, and less downtime compared to most laser procedures.

Most patients see good results from a series of 4-6 treatments at 1-2 week intervals for maximum results. Your practitioner will design a course of treatments based on your specific skin concerns and goals.

Yes, cold plasma treatment has been proven to be very effective for the treatment of active acne due to its powerful antibacterial effect. Cold plasma decreases inflammation, kills bacteria that cause pimples, and controls sebum output without drying the skin.
