Plasma energy is one of the newest developments in the cosmetic industry, and it’s becoming the preferred technology for a range of cosmetic procedures. The reason for this is obvious: plasma laser resurfacing treatments produce greater results than traditional laser alternatives, all while doing less damage to the skin and requiring less downtime. Here’s some of the plasma laser treatments you should be on the look-out for.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 improves on the microneedling treatment by incorporating radiofrequency (RF) energy. Traditional microneedling makes small wounds in the skin, triggering a healing response in the surrounding skin tissue. The body creates collagen to help the body heal, which over time, also helps rejuvenate the skin to deliver a range of cosmetic benefits. Morpheus8 takes this one step further by delivering radiofrequency energy into the skin tissue during the microneedling process. This helps the body generate even more collagen for greater cosmetic benefits, as well as triggering immediate skin tightening due to the gentle heat delivered by RF energy. These enhanced results are also accompanied by an accelerated healing process and fewer overall treatments required for optimal results. Patients can expect a full recovery within 2 weeks, with only 2-3 treatments required for most patients.
Opus Plasma Skin Resurfacing
While traditional laser resurfacing has long been used for a range of skin conditions and concerns, Opus plasma skin resurfacing is starting to take over. Opus combines radiofrequency energy with microplasma energy to resurface the skin with significantly less downtime compared to traditional lasers.
The treatment is not very painful, but a topical anesthetic can be used to minimize any discomfort during the treatment process. Then, the treatment takes less than 30 minutes to perform. Results are often visible immediately, with improved results over time as part of a series of treatment sessions. In most cases, we’ll recommend a series of 2-3 treatments to deliver the optimal results. The recovery process takes approximately one week, which is far less than traditional ablative laser resurfacing treatments.
Ultimately, this means that Opus Plasma skin resurfacing is a superior treatment option for skin concerns that include:
- Lines and wrinkles
- Acne scarring
- Uneven skin tone or texture
- Loose or sagging skin
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks
- And more
