JET PLASMA THERAPY
WHAT IS JET PLASMA?
Jet Plasma is an advanced technology used to brighten, tighten and lift the skin. It also helps to shrink pores, treat active acne, stimulate the reproduction of high levels of collagen and elastin. The design of the device combines Jet (J plasma), Cold Atmospheric Plasma and high voltage microcurrent. Our Profosma Jet Plasma pen penetrates 13,000 volts of plasma into the dermis and subcutaneous layers of the skin, remodeling the cellular structure from the inside out. Cold Atmospheric plasma is administered in short bursts that create a focused stream of low-current cold plasma. This response allows us to tighten the skin without any burn or surface trauma which occurs with traditional Fibroblast plasma treatments. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is well documented in the medical community for its ability to destroy bacterial cells and increase tissue oxygenation. When Jet Plasma is mixed with oxide oxygen, Ozone is created. The Microcurrent stimulates the facial muscles, further assisting in lifting and sculpting the face.
WHAT IS PLASMA?
Plasma is easily influenced by electromagnetic fields in a way that neutral gases are not. Plasma and gas are two separate phases of matter. The phases of matter are solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Since plasma and gas are closely related, plasma is rarely referred to when talking about the phases of matter. Gas turns into plasma when enough heat or energy is added to ionize it. The atoms that make up the gas start to lose their electrons and become positively charged ions. The lost electrons are then able to float freely. This process is called ionization. Once a significant portion of the gas has become ionized, the electrical characteristics of the substance dramatically change and it is then referred to as plasma.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
The number of treatments required will vary according to the skin’s laxity, the condition being treated , the desired degree of correction and the individual’s response to the treatment. Most client’s see results instantly and this continues to improve over the course of the following 6-8 weeks. Since we are using a cooler temperature Plasma (cold and Jet) a series of treatments may be required for ideal results. You can initially get treated 2-3 times per week with 48 hours in between each session. Once the skin starts to improve you can do 1 time per week or every 2 weeks, 3 weeks and so on.
BENEFITS OF JET PLASMA:
Absorption:
Plasma opens the channels to the skin increasing absorption rate by temporarily shrinking the skin cells, allowing active ingredients to permeate into the deeper layers of the skin (dermis and subcutaneous) without the use of injections
Anti-pigment & Skin Lightening:
Jet Plasma has an anti-pigmentation effect on the skin by suppressing melanin production.
Sterilization of the Skin:
Jet Plasma is very effective for treating acne. The plasma technology destroys the P. acnes bacteria which causes the problem. It sterilizes the skin and has an anti-inflammatory effect that reduces sebum (oil) production by 25%.
Skin Regeneration & Tightening:
Studies performed by Profosma manufacturer have shown a 14.8% increase in skin density following a single treatment.
KEY USES FOR JET PLASMA TREATMENT:
Tighten, lift & smooth skin by reproducing collagen and elastin.
Diminish Wrinkles
Hyperpigmentation, Melasma, and Sunspots.
Eczema, Psoriasis
Rosacea
Stimulates Hair growth
Acne: Kills P. Acnes, a bacteria found on the skin that causes Acne.
Shrink pores
Scar revision
Due to the channels in the skin being open, combining LED therapy and anti-aging products after Jet Plasma is extremely beneficial.
AFTERCARE FOLLOWING A TREATMENT:
Following your treatment, the channels in the skin are open so it is important that nothing is applied to the skin for 12 hours.
No makeup can be worn after the treatment for 12 hours
Recommended: No Exercise, Sauna, Steam for 12 hours
No skincare other than what is applied in the clinic can be used for 12 hours
Refrain from using SPF immediately following the treatment
