At Le Beau Visage Medical Spa in Frisco, TX, we offer PlasmaPen™ treatments to help patients naturally combat the signs of aging, eliminate skin imperfections, and naturally increase collagen and elastin production to restore a healthy and youthful glow to the skin. These effective treatments use plasma energy to lift and tighten the skin and reverse the aging process with a unique, non-invasive method.
The PlasmaPen™ is a pen-like device that uses plasma energy to improve the appearance of the skin. Plasma is often referred to as the fourth state of matter and is similar to a gas in substance. When applied to the skin through the device, it creates a thermal injury that the body must heal and repair. The plasma targets the fibroblasts, which are skin cells that play a part in collagen and elastin production.
This device is known for its ability to perform non-surgical neck and eye lifts, correct sun-damaged skin, repair the skin affected by acne scars, smooth lines around the mouth, eliminate jowls, remove moles, and more.
The PlasmaPen™ has been growing in popularity for its ability to deliver versatile and effective treatments to meet the needs of patients with different skin-related concerns. Some of the treatment benefits include the following:
During treatments, the device creates an arc of plasma energy without ever making contact with the skin. That plasma targets the skin, which results in a tiny thermal injury that forces the body to respond with a healing reaction. The device affects the fibroblasts, and the treatment process has thus been deemed fibroblast therapy. The body responds to these tiny thermal injuries by increasing natural collagen and elastin production to heal and rejuvenate the skin.
PlasmaPen™ treatments are versatile. We can use this device to address several different aesthetic and aging-related concerns. It can remove unwanted lesions from the skin, including milia, excess skin, and moles, smooth scars and create a more uniform skin texture, improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and perform a non-surgical eye and neck lift. We can also use it to correct skin laxity on the face and body and address many other aesthetic concerns.
Patients looking for an alternative treatment that can target the different signs of aging, eliminate excess skin, and remove unwanted lesions from the skin that doesn’t require surgical techniques make good candidates for fibroblast therapy with PlasmaPen™.
This device is specifically designed to treat Fitzpatrick skin types one to three. If you’re interested in undergoing this treatment, the process begins with an initial consultation. We will evaluate your desired treatment areas, confirm your skin type, and once we determine that this treatment is right for you, we can design your treatment plan.
Your treatment results can last for years, so long as you take the necessary steps to care for your skin after your treatment. Maintenance treatments can help extend your results over time or help you address additional concerns that you notice after completing your original treatment plan.
PlasmaPen™ treatments can be combined with other anti-aging and skin care treatments for optimal results. We can give you more details about our treatments at your initial consultation and add them to your treatment plan as needed.
You won’t have to plan around significant downtime after treatment is over, but you will need to follow some steps to ensure that the treatment area heals for optimal results. We will provide you with some detailed instructions about what products to use, as well as which to discontinue temporarily in the days following your treatment. It’s also important that you avoid excess sun exposure and wear quality sunscreen if you are exposed to the sun.
PlasmaPen™ treatment times vary based on the areas included within your treatment plan. Smaller areas can take 30 to 40 minutes, but larger areas will take longer. At your pre-treatment consultation, we will discuss the areas you want to treat and then give you a better idea of how long your treatment will take.
Some patients achieve their desired results after one treatment; others may need two or more. We customize each treatment plan for each patient’s unique needs, so depending on your area of concern, you may need a single treatment for results or several.
If you’re looking for a non-invasive treatment that can improve your skin and allow you to enjoy long-lasting results, PlasmaPen™ treatments may be the perfect option. We can schedule your initial consultation to start this process so you can experience all the benefits of this treatment and achieve your skincare goals.
