What is Plasma Pen Fibroblast? What are its Benefits?

We recently announced that we’ll launch four advanced aesthetic courses for non-medical Aestheticians looking to add more qualifications to their resume. The VTCT (ITEC) Level 4 Award in Plasma Pen Techniques is among those latest offerings, and we’ve since had so many questions from those interested in more information about plasma fibroblast therapy. 

In this blog, we’ll discuss everything about plasma pens, the procedure, how to become qualified, and anything you’d want to know before introducing the treatment to your clients.

What is a Plasma Pen?

A Plasma Pen is a non-invasive cosmetic device designed for skin rejuvenation and tightening.

The pen generates a controlled electrical discharge to create a tiny plasma arc that superficially heats the skin, using the principle of plasma technology, causing it to contract and tighten.

Eleonora Androva, school director and aesthetic clinic owner, recommends this revolutionary technique for facial rejuvenation treatments, especially around the eyes. Plasma pen therapy is the best alternative to laser therapy; in fact, it is better than for some clients because it’s suitable for all skin colours.

The procedure is often used to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin and treat various skin imperfections such as age spots and acne scars.

Unlike traditional surgical methods, the Plasma Pen ensures minimal downtime and is a safer alternative for those seeking a more youthful appearance without the risks of invasive surgery.

What is Plasma Pen Fibroblast Therapy?

Plasma Fibroblast Therapy is a non-medical aesthetic procedure designed to enhance skin tightness using a plasma pen. This new and innovative treatment is also known as plasma skin resurfacing, regeneration, needling, or lift. The treatment is gaining traction due to the similarities the results have to Botox. Both treatments are designed to hide or reverse the signs of ageing; however, the fibroblast treatment offers longer-lasting results whilst being non-invasive! A real game changer to similar treatments on the market. 

The plasma fibroblast process involves using a pen that releases hot, gas-like plasma to generate trauma in skin cells called fibroblasts. Dermal fibroblasts, found in the deeper layers of the skin, are essential for the reproduction of collagen, which maintains skin elasticity.

Plasma Pen Therapy creates micro-injuries in the skin, but unlike microneedling, which makes tiny pricks into the skin, the plasma pen works without cutting but instead heats the skin, prompting fibroblasts to activate and initiate the repair and regeneration of the outer skin layers. Plasma Pen Therapy accelerates collagen production, improving facial lines, wrinkles, skin pigmentation, and the potential for various other skin concerns.

What can you expect from a Plasma Pen Fibroblast Treatment?

At the beginning of the session, the Aesthetician carrying out the therapy will explain the above information to the client before working together to determine the treatment area. Numbing cream is applied to the area to reduce pain throughout the procedure. As mentioned, the treatment is non-invasive, so the discomfort should already be minimal.

Depending on the width of the treatment area/s, clients can expect the procedure to last up to 2 hours.

Once finished, clients can resume their daily activities; however, they may feel a sensation similar to sunburn. Clients may notice swelling and small scabbing called carbon crusts at the affected areas after the treatment. Therapists should remind them to avoid the temptation to pick at these scabs and let them fall off naturally, which should take about a week. 

Upon completing the healing process, the client can appreciate the results—radiant, youthful skin—for years to come!

What are the benefits of Plasma Fibroblast Therapy?

There are many reasons why Aestheticians and Cosmeticians around the globe are raving about Plasma Pen Fibroblast Therapy! 

Let’s delve into the multifaceted benefits that make this treatment a standout choice:

1. Is non-invasive:

The treatment is non-invasive, involving no incisions or cuts to the skin. This characteristic not only makes the procedure less painful compared to other aesthetic treatments but also allows clients to resume their daily activities immediately after the session. It’s a quick and convenient lunchtime pick-me-up!

2. Provide immediate and long-lasting results:

Post-treatment, the skin experiences an immediate tightening effect. However, the real magic happens during the third phase of healing, marked by collagen growth. Clients can expect to see the final results after 8-12 weeks. 

Most clients will need two sessions for the best results, but that depends on the individual Aesthetician consultation and opinion.

3. Can be safely administration across face and body:

The versatility of the Plasma Pen device is a notable advantage. The Plasma Pen device and treatment has gained much popularity as it can safely treat all face and body areas, including the eyes, neck, and mouth, which are more commonly hard to treat due to sensitivity. 

4. Address a variety of skin concerns:

Plasma Pen Therapy proves effective in addressing following skin concerns and more:

  • Sagging eyelids and eye bags
