Plasma IQ

What is IQ plasma treatment?

Plasma IQ, also known as Plasma Lift or Cold Plasma, is an innovative method for smoothing wrinkled or damaged skin safely and, above all, without surgery. Until recently, the only way to get rid of excess wrinkled skin was through lengthy, sometimes surgical, procedures, but now that's all changed with this latest technology.

It's a different type of energy that uses a targeted microbeam of plasma energy which, through local ionization, enables direct retraction of the treated skin without harming or affecting the surrounding skin. This procedure can give surgical results without the actual need for surgery.

This is an increasingly common and minimal treatment method, which is much faster than surgical solutions and reduces downtime.

‍

When should I consider this treatment?

The different areas that can be targeted by Plasma IQ and the main indications are :

• Drooping upper eyelids,
• The crumpled lower eyelids,
• Crow's feet / Smoker's lines
• Mild to moderate laxity of the skin around the mouth
• Acne scars on the face
• Fine scars
• Fear or rejection of surgery

How does our anti-aging clinic do it?

After thoroughly removing make-up and disinfecting the area, the practitioner delimits the area to be treated and applies an anaesthetic cream for 1 hour before treatment to avoid any burning sensation.
‍
The practitioner approaches the tip of the Plasma IQ device needle to the skin. Without any contact or cutaneous effraction, at a distance of 1mm from the skin, a luminous flash is generated, producing a large quantity of heat limited to the point of firing. This heat, rich in ions and electrons, vaporizes the skin's superficial cells, which immediately retract, leaving a small crust of carbonization less than a millimeter in diameter for each treatment impact. The practitioner determines precise firing points according to the indication to be treated Each shot lasts less than a second.
As soon as the treatment is complete, the doctor applies ice to cool the eyelids, then disinfects the skin by tapping without removing the carbonization crusts.

The benefits of Plasma IQ

Plasma IQ treatments can result in rapid, permanent tightening of your loose skin and can give you the look you've always wanted without the need for surgery.

Advice from our anti-aging clinic:

BEFORE: You should always keep your skin moisturized, especially before having a Plasma IQ treatment. Also, avoid the sun as much as possible and always wear sunscreen 30 or higher during the day. Reduce alcohol and tobacco consumption as they can affect the collagen formation process, which can compromise the success of the treatment.
‍
DURING: It should be noted that slight discomfort may be experienced during the operation. There is no need to worry in case this occurs, as it is a normal sensation that depends on the location of the skin targeted for treatment. An anaesthetic cream will be applied to you 1 hour beforehand at the surgery to make the treatment more comfortable.
‍
AFTER: You should avoid exfoliating scabs as this can delay the healing process. In addition, you may need to apply cloth-covered ice packs to the operated area if necessary, avoid putting ice directly on the skin. Do not take anti-inflammatory drugs, as the inflammatory response is a key element in the Plasma IQ treatment process. Clean the area with a warm, damp cloth twice a day until completely healed. Avoid hot showers for 2-3 days after treatment as they can irritate the affected area.
‍
FOLLOW-UP: There are a few small brownish crusts on the treated area which will fall off naturally in 3-7 days. The treatment is very well tolerated and there are no side effects. The only after-effects may be temporary redness or swelling, which disappear spontaneously after 1 to 3 days, depending on the location.
‍
There is no need to avoid social life, as the scabs can be covered up with make-up or sunglasses.
