Are age-related changes in the skin becoming more noticeable? Does the skin lose elasticity and firmness, becomes dry, pale, does the first wrinkles appear? This is familiar to all women after 30-35 years. But that's no reason to despair, go under the surgeon's knife, or inject painful injections into your face.
Cold Plasma Rejuvenation is a unique and completely painless method of skin regeneration, which allows you to eliminate signs of aging, wrinkles, age spots, spider veins and other skin problems.
Let's see what cold plasma is, how it works and what kind of results you can really expect.
Cold plasma - fantasy or a new word in cosmetology?
Cold plasma is an ionized gas consisting of charged and completely neutral particles that are formed under the influence of an electric current. In cold plasma, the percentage of charged particles is not more than 1%, and the gas temperature is only 30-40 degrees. The active factors are neutral gas, active molecules, charged particles, heat and low ultraviolet radiation.
The strength of cold plasma exposure is enough to get an excellent anti-aging effect, but not enough to harm the skin.
Cold plasma is a totally safe procedure, it has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and bactericidal effects.
Cold plasma rejuvenation is a procedure performed using a device that works on the basis of plasma current. The device is a special pen with a replaceable tip.
The essence of the procedure is that when the skin is heated to 40°C, collagen and elastin naturally begin to be produced, which contributes to the regeneration of skin cells.
What cold plasma devices do cosmetologists use?
There are four cold plasma devices that are used in cosmetology:
- Mediselor BeautyMonster WHITE. This is a high frequency device with a comfortable handle, made in South Korea. The model offers 8 levels of frequency and power, combining you can use 36 programs.
- Plasma Maglev Pen. This device is battery operated and has low power, which is enough to lift eyelids, eliminate age spots, smooth wrinkles and also tighten thin skin. The device is made in China.
- There is also a cold plasma device, used not only in cosmetology, but also in medicine (dentistry, surgery, dermatology). This is a powerful professional machine.
- Another device that includes cold plasma, monopolar contact electrocoagulation and microcoagulation. Such a device is also used to smooth wrinkles, remove warts, papillomas, tattoos, treat acne, correct scars and scars. The device operates at low, medium and high levels of exposure intensity.
Procedure
The entire rejuvenation procedure fits into three simple steps:
- Training. The master examines your skin, talks about contraindications, cleans the skin, applies an anesthetic ointment.
- The procedure itself. The master adjusts the device to the required power, disinfects the handpiece and sequentially treats each area of the skin. The exposure time is not more than 1 second. In conclusion, the skin is treated again with an antiseptic agent, followed by the application of a moisturizing or nourishing cream. Depending on the selected treatment area, the duration of the session can vary from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Skin healing and restoration. At the end of the procedure, the master will tell you how to properly care for the skin. These recommendations are extremely important to be followed to the letter!
For a complete recovery, you must do the following:
- treat the skin with an antiseptic and moisturizer for a week;
- refrain from visiting the bath, sauna, swimming pool, solarium for a week;
- use sunscreen, as little as possible in the sun;
- do not use exfoliants, avoid peeling for 10 days;
- refuse decorative cosmetics for up to 10 days.
The number of sessions depends on the condition and characteristics of your skin, age, number of problem areas. Sessions can range from 1 (for young skin with barely noticeable age-related changes) to 7-10 (for deep wrinkles, scars, acne, etc. ). The procedures are carried out at most once a month. The maximum effect of the procedure is observed 4 months after completion of the course.
Side effects
The method itself has no side effects, but it is important to understand that cold plasma rejuvenation can only be performed by a certified specialist on a high-quality device that has passed all necessary checks.
If you came to an incompetent master, bruising, burns, skin bumps, pigmentation and allergic reactions can be expected as side effects.
