Plasma Skin Tightening
Plasma skin tightening, also called plasma fibroblasting, uses an electrostatic plasma arc to stimulate collagen without direct contact with the skin and without surgery. Mike Lee Laser & Skin Clinic offers it in Newton-le-Willows, with a free consultation, a local anaesthetic cream and online booking.
Transform Your Skin And Confidence
Welcome to Mike Lee Laser and Skin Clinic, where we bring you the latest breakthrough in skin rejuvenation: Plasma Skin Tightening. Say goodbye to surgical procedures and hello to a non-invasive treatment that can transform your appearance without the need for cutting, burning, or removing excess skin or fat. Get ready to rediscover your youthful radiance!
Plasma Fibroblasting treatments utilise the power of ionised gas in the air to work wonders on your skin. Through the precise combination of oxygen and nitrogen, an electrostatic energy creates a plasmatic effusion or arc that gently interacts with your skin, triggering remarkable results. The beauty of this treatment lies in its ability to stimulate collagen production without any direct contact with the skin.
Before we begin the procedure, we ensure your comfort by applying a local anaesthetic cream to the treatment area. When focusing on the eye area, you may experience slight swelling, which typically subsides within a few days, revealing a revitalised appearance. As the treatment progresses, tiny circular carbon crusts will form at the treatment sites. While they will naturally slough off after a few days, it may take up to a week for them to completely disappear.
Achieve a Radiant, Rejuvenated Look
In most cases, a single session is enough to achieve the remarkable results you desire. However, should you wish to enhance and maintain those results further, a repeat treatment after three months is an option. While this treatment will allow us to achieve incredible results, this treatment cannot halt the natural ageing process and skin elasticity may reduce once again as part of the natural ageing process, post-treatment.
You’ll notice the positive effects almost immediately after the first treatment, and they will continue to enhance your appearance for up to 12 weeks. Following your session, you can resume your normal activities, being mindful not to pick, peel, or pull at the carbon crusts. Allow them to naturally slough off, revealing the beautiful transformation underneath.
To ensure optimal healing, it’s essential to keep the treated area free of makeup, mascara, creams, and lotions. Twice daily cleansing with mild soap and lukewarm boiled water will prevent bacteria buildup and support the recovery process. While some swelling may persist for up to five days, it’s important to remember that healing times are typically shorter, and this reaction is a normal part of the initial stages of skin regeneration.
How it works
Free consultation
Your skin is assessed and your goals and concerns are discussed with the practitioner. You receive a quote for the treatment, with the price list showing the cost per area.
Numbing cream
A local anaesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area before the procedure begins, so that you are as comfortable as possible during the treatment.
The plasma arc
A combination of oxygen and nitrogen creates an electrostatic arc that interacts with the skin and stimulates collagen production, with no direct contact with the skin.
Carbon crusts form
Tiny circular carbon crusts form at the treatment sites and naturally slough off over a few days, revealing the refreshed skin beneath them.
Benefits
Non-surgical option
The clinic describes plasma skin tightening as a non-invasive alternative, with no need to cut, burn away or take out excess skin or fat.
Collagen stimulation
The plasma arc stimulates the skin's own collagen production, which is how the treatment aims to tighten and rejuvenate the treated area.
Early visible effects
The clinic says you may notice positive effects almost straight after the first treatment, and continuing to improve how you look for up to 12 weeks.
Often a single session
In most cases the clinic says one session is enough, with an optional repeat treatment after three months to enhance and maintain results.
What to expect
Your practitioner applies a local anaesthetic cream first, then the plasma arc is used on the treated area without touching the skin. Tiny circular carbon crusts form and slough off after a few days, and the clinic says they may need as long as a week to disappear completely. Around the eyes, slight swelling is possible and usually settles within a few days.
Aftercare
The clinic says you can resume normal activities but must leave the carbon crusts alone rather than picking, peeling or pulling them. Keep the area free of makeup, mascara, creams and lotions, and cleanse twice daily with mild soap and lukewarm boiled water. Swelling may last up to five days. Follow your practitioner's advice and contact the clinic with any questions.
