Plasma pen ionises gases from the air to create a small and very precise arc of plasma energy. This plasma arc is used to create a series of tiny dots on the skin that trigger an immediate tightening, lifting and contouring reaction, which renews skin whilst the surrounding skin remains unaffected.

Plasma is a non-invasive procedure with minimal level of pain. It is virtually painless, as the treated area is numbed before the treatment. After the treatment the treated area is red (7–14 days) and some patients may experience some swelling, which may last up to 3–4 days. At the site of each spot a small crust will form. They should not be touched and you should wait for 5-10 days for them to fall off naturally. During the procedure the clients may feel some discomfort, not actual pain, depending on the treated area of the face/body.

The treatment is very safe, as it is a non-surgical procedure. It has a negligible amount of possible side effects and serious complications alike. The procedure is based on the natural stimulation of skin regeneration, so the excesses which may be seen in the world of traditional surgery are not possible.

The Plasma treatment takes a very short time, with stress on the aftercare, as, in case the client neglects the instructions for aftercare, the treated area may suffer from: inflammation, hyper-pigmentation, scarring …

Pre treatment

It is important that you inform your therapist if you have any significant medical history and/or if you are taking any medications prior to treatment. Makeup and sunscreen will also have to be removed prior to treatment.

• Do not wax, pluck, use depilatory creams or undertake electrolysis for 2 weeks prior to treatment, and in between treatments
• Do not use prescription strength exfoliant creams (discuss with your therapist) for 2 weeks prior to treatment
• Do not shave for up to 1 weeks prior to first treatment. Please shave the night before all subsequent treatments
• Avoid tanning, including self-tanning lotions, tanning bed/booths or sun exposure, for 4 weeks prior to and in between treatments. A sunscreen with SPF 30 or greater should be used on any area of sun-exposed skin, which you plan to treat
• Skin Types 3 and above may need to commence melanin inhibitors 2-4 weeks prior

Post treatment

• Applying cosmetics or alcohol based products on treated areas
• Swimming, especially in pools with chemical/chlorine
• Hot tubs and jacuzzis
• Activities that cause excessive perspiration
• Avoid sun exposure to treated areas
• Do not pick, scratch or remove scabs as this will cause unwanted side effects
• Apply a sunscreen with SPF 30+ daily to sun exposed skin, AND REAPPLY AS DIRECTED BY PRODUCT INSTRUCTIONS

1. Antibiotics
2. Antihistamines
3. Antidepressants
4. Herbal preparations – St Johns wort, Gingko Biloba, citrus oils, Herbal HRT therapies

In addition to the above instructions, further individualised recommendations may apply such as:

FIBROBLAST POST TREATMENT

• Application of Stratamed or an ice pack/cool compress every hour for 5 to 10 minutes may be soothing to the skin. Continue until symptoms subside
• Only apply Stratamed on the treatment area for the first 24 hours
• Avoid getting the area wet for 24 hour and do not apply any cosmetic or cosmeceutical products to the area
• Avoid sun exposure to treated areas. Apply a sun block with SPF 30 or greater daily to sun-exposed treated areas between treatments and for 4-6 weeks after last treatment
• Recommended to use SPF daily, once the scabs have formed
• Bathe or shower as usual. Treated areas may be temperature sensitive. Avoid use of strongly scented lotions or soaps, prescription strength exfoliant creams, loofah sponges, and aggressive scrubbing to treated areas during healing phase
• Allow any blistered or open areas to heal spontaneously. If healing is delayed, a thin coating of antibiotic ointment may be advised. Do not pick at these areas. Picking may result in infection or scarring. Allow any crusting to heal spontaneously, crusting will resolve in 3 to 14 days. Application of antibiotic ointment is not recommended for crusting
• Best results are obtained on clients who have follow up treatment 3-6 months after their initial treatment. Your clinician will advise you when you should schedule your next appointment. It is important to adhere to this regime

The Plasma treatment is an exceptionally safe procedure with virtually no side effects or they occur very rarely. Possible side effects are inflammation, scarring or minor change in skin pigmentation, which is very rare. It is highly important for each client to follow the instructions for aftercare closely. Crusts which occur after the treatment are part of the treatment and will fall off after 5-10 days. Minor swelling after treating the area around the eyes is normal and will disappear after 3–5 days, depending on the client’s sensitivity.

Do not use makeup after the treatment, as it generally is not sterile. First 5–7 days after the treatment or until the crusts fall off, When the crusts fall off, you may apply some makeup if necessary,

The results are visible immediately after the treatment, but we have to inform the client that the maximum results will be visible after 3–4 weeks when the skin enters the third phase of the healing – collagen and connective tissue growth. So, results are visible immediately, but the end results follow after 3–4 weeks after the treatment.

The treatment should last long term although it is hard to predicted exactly. Ageing is dynamic process and there are many factors affecting patients individually. Lifestyle, diet and genetics just to mention few. As of today,permanent results are not possible,after Fibroblast procedure or traditional surgery your skin will be a subject to ageing. Your skin will continue to relax (loosen) again. In some rare situationsageing may be accelerated and effectiveness of Fibroblast would be shortened. Purebeau technician will discuss those conditions, so patients have better understanding of what to expect.

• Clients should be in good health at the time of the appointment, with no preexisting health conditions. If the client displays signs of cold or flu the treatment should be rescheduled.

(This applies for treatments surrounding the lip area only)

FIBROBLAST PLASMA AFTERCARE

The Fibroblast Plasma Pen treatment will produce side-effects after the procedure. This is common and normal. Side effects expected is redness, swelling, and slight pain, this generally subsides after a day or two.

• Eye Treatment Area
• Day of treatment: Some swelling. Feels hot like a sunburn. This feeling can last for up to 3 hours+
• Day 1 (Next day post-treatment): Lots of swelling (the most swelling), especially in the morning.
• Day 2: Swelling.
• Day 3: Itchy sensation and tightness. Swelling decreases. Dots dry and may start to fall off.

• Swelling

You will notice most of the swelling on the first morning after treatment, particularly around the eyes. Swelling usually lasts two to three days. To minimise swelling do the following:

• Follow Lymphatic Drainage Protocols.
• Sleep elevated the first night. Use as many pillows as you can tolerate
•  
• Heat/Sunburn/Stinging

Feeling hot like a sunburn stinging sensation is normal immediately after the treatment and for the rest of that night.

• Itchiness

You will start to feel itchy from the 3rd day. Do not pick at the dots. The itchiness sensation means that the dots are starting to heal and are getting ready to dry and fall off.

• Dry skin

Your skin may feel dry, peel or flake. You may notice a “sandpaper” texture a few days after treatment. This is the treated tissue working its way out of your body as new fresh skin is regenerated.

• Redness

Most redness resolves during the first week after treatment, but a rosy “glow” can remain for several weeks. After the carbon crusts (dots) have fallen off, 5 to 7 days after the treatment, that’s when you can apply your normal coverage of makeup.

• Bronzing, Crusting and Small Dark Dots

The Fibroblast Plasma Pen treatment causes destruction to microscopic cylinders of skin which then exfoliates during the healing process. The treatment can make the skin look bronzed, or small areas appear crusted (do not try to scratch them off). Scratching off any carbon deposits (dots) may result in infection, scarring and hypo-pigmentation of the skin that may not be able to be reversed. Please refrain from scratching any areas that are healing.

• Raw Skin

If you develop areas of raw skin post treatment, keep them moist with the provided ointment and our Fibroblast Aftercare. You do not need to apply band-aids, but keep the areas moist and do not pick at them. They will heal very rapidly on their own and without problems.

• Weeping

Initially, after treatment and for a day or so afterward, there may be occasional weeping (yellow pus). This is simply plasma and is a natural healing response. This simply flakes off after a few days but in some cases can take over 1 week.

• Moisturiser

Remember that peeling and/or flaking is normal during the healing process. Therefore, the product should be non-irritating and non-clogging, or else you could develop breakouts.

Your skin will be sensitive for the first week or so after treatment, so do not use products that will cause irritation during this time. Do not use abrasive scrubs, toners, or products that contain glycolyic acids or Retin A. Read the product labels.
