Benefits of Opus Plasma Treatments

As the next generation in fractional skin rejuvenation, plasma skin resurfacing offers a variety of benefits over traditional laser skin resurfacing and radiofrequency treatments.

Dramatic Results

Plasma skin rejuvenation delivers comparable results to CO2 skin resurfacing, but without the pain, side effects, and extensive recovery time of more aggressive laser treatments.

Rapid Treatment Time

Sessions require approximately 15 minutes – a fraction of the time required to complete traditional skin resurfacing treatments.

Safe & Effective for Every Skin Type

Fractional plasma resurfacing treatments are FDA-approved and highly effective for every skin type and color.

Custom Treatment Depths

High-frequency, unipolar radio-frequency technology allows for high-precision control of treatment depth. Results can range from mild to aggressive depending on preference.

Multiple Treatment Areas

Fractional plasma resurfacing can be used virtually anywhere on the body for stretch mark removal and to improve the appearance of scars and other skin irregularities.

What Is Fractional Plasma Skin Resurfacing?

At Medical Tattoo Centers of America, we utilize Opus Plasma for skin resurfacing treatments. This innovative device combines radiofrequency with microplasma energy to stimulate facial rejuvenation by creating fractional injuries in the skin’s microthermal zones.

In response to treatment, the skin produces an influx of collagen and elastin, which reinforce its structure, elasticity, and fullness. As the most abundant proteins in youthful, healthy skin, collagen and elastin are essential for maintaining a vibrant, smooth, supple complexion.

What to Expect With Plasma Skin Resurfacing Treatments

During a plasma skin resurfacing treatment, your practitioner directs the Opus Plasma device near the surface of your skin. The metal pins on the device’s treatment tips operate at a high frequency of 40MHz, producing radiofrequency energy that reacts to atmospheric pressure in the surrounding air.

This reaction produces ionized gas, known as plasma, which deeply penetrates the skin, creating the fractional injuries that stimulate collagen and elastin production. The treatment is quite brief, requiring approximately 15 minutes depending on your unique needs and the size of the resurfacing area.

After treatment, most patients are able to return to their normal schedules immediately. You should expect one to two days of mild redness and inflammation, but downtime is considerably less than other skin resurfacing treatments.

You’ll likely see noticeable results after a single treatment, but to see the most dramatic results, most patients require three to four sessions. Your practitioner will develop a customized treatment plan just for you based on your unique needs and skin care goals.
