Fibroblast Plasma skin Tightening & Wart/Skin tag Removal

What is Fibroblast Plasma Skin Tightening?

As we age, the dermal layer of our skin thins, our bodies produce less collagen and we lose elasticity. This is unfortunately a natural ageing process which causes wrinkles and sagging of the skin. Our certified plasma pen technicians use the fibroblast plasma treatment to eliminate signs of ageing by tightening and lifting sagging skin.

How is this done?

Microcharges of plasma energy are applied to the skin in a non-contact way via a wand. This causes sublimation of the tissue at very superficial levels, eliminating excess tissue and reducing or in some cases even eliminating wrinkles and saggy tissue.

What does sublimation of the skin mean?

When anything solid turns into gas without becoming a liquid first it is called sublimation. The plasma pen device works by targeting a microbe of plasma energy onto the skin. This causes skin retraction and tightening around that area only. The sublimation of the skin cell causes immediate tightening and through the healing of the micro wound that is caused the body’s natural healing process produces more collagen to plump, tighten and firm the treated area. The treatment is so precise that only a 1-2mm treatment spot is created.

Does it hurt?

A topical anesthetic is applied to the area to be treated as the procedure can be a little uncomfortable. A slight burning sensation can be felt as the skin becomes heated. The anesthetic helps to make this treatment tolerable.

What areas of the body can be treated?

• Upper and lower eyelid sagging, bags and lines
• Crow’s feet
• Forehead and frown lines
• Lines around the mouth
• Fine lines and wrinkles on the neck and décolleté (chest)
• Neck tightening
• Smokers lines

Before treatment:

Prior to your treatment, we recommend avoiding tanning beds, sunless tanning creams and prolonged sun exposure for four weeks prior to your first appointment. We also recommend patients stop using topical retina, retinol, retinoid or any chemical peel products 48 hours prior to treatment.

Aftercare and downtime

You can expect to have some redness and swelling immediately after the procedure and for a few days following. Tiny dark brown spots will be seen where the individual micro dots have been placed. You will be provided with a post-treatment balm to apply to the area. The dark spots should be left to fall off naturally as these are protecting the skin underneath. After about 5 days to a week, these will fall off and the skin may still be slightly red. Mineral makeup can be worn 24-48 hours after the treatment. Sun protection must be applied to protect the healing skin.

Results

Some tightening of the skin will be seen immediately after the treatment, but the best results can be seen approximately 6-8 weeks after the procedure. Results can last 9-18 months, lifestyle choices that affect skin ageing and damage are a factor however for longevity. For optimum results, more than one treatment may be needed with a minimum of 6 weeks between treatments for the same area.

Who is a candidate for fibroblast plasma treatments?

Candidates with a low Fitzpatrick level (I-III) are prime candidates for this treatment. People with darker skin tones may not be good candidates due to a higher risk of hyper or hypopigmentation. People with certain skin conditions may also not be prime candidates. A free consultation is required prior to this treatment so our technician may access your skin and suitability and discuss realistic expectations from this treatment.

Possible Risks and Complications

1. Wound infection
2. Wound bleeding
3. Scarring
4. Burns

The risks listed above are in general terms and the possibility of complications is not exhaustive. Please understand that even though all procedures are carried out with utmost professionalism and care, this does not rule out the possibility of complications arising. In the event of post-operative complications, further interventions may be required.

Pre-procedure Preparations

1. Good hygiene can prevent surgical wound infection.
2. The procedure and possible complications will be explained by the therapist and a consent form must be signed prior to the procedure.
3. Please inform the therapist of your past medical history, previous surgical operations, current medication and any complications with drugs or anaesthesia.

Advice on Discharge

1. The wound must be kept clean to prevent infection. The wound may be covered with an ointment to protect it for a few days.
2. A soft scab will form over the treated area. It will drop off by itself and leave a small scar.
3. Wound bleeding may occur during the first 24 hours. It can be controlled by applying gentle pressure to the area for 10 minutes or ointment we provide.
4. The following recommendations can prevent warts from spreading:
   • –  Do not pick or scratch at areas with warts.
   • –  Do not touch someone’s warts.
   • –  Foot warts should be kept dry.
   • –  Slippers should be worn in public showers, locker rooms and pool areas.
5. Immediately consult your therapist or return to the clinic for professional attention in the event of massive bleeding, pain, swelling, redness, drainage in the treated area, as well as redness and burning sensation around the wart.

Follow-up

1. Any follow-up consultations should be attended as scheduled.
2. Laser treatments are highly recommnended once the wound is fully healed to make sure that there will be no hyperpigmentation after the procedure.
3. Micro-needling treatments are highly recommended after Skin tag or big wart removal to resurface and even out the top layer of the skin.

Should there be any enquiries or concerns, please consult the attending therapist.

Under the professional care of the therapist, you will gradually recover. We wish you all the best during your treatment and recovery.
