Plasma Sublimation Treatment (Soft Surgery)

Over recent years there has been an increase in the demand for cosmetic procedures that are less invasive, have minimum recovery time and come with more affordable prices. Patients are after a non-surgical treatment method, that provides similar results as seen with surgery.

As a solution to this high demand, president of the Italian Society for Aesthetic Medicine, Prof. Giorgio Fippi, developed a unique soft surgery tool that utilises the fourth state of matter, plasma, to treat a number of cosmetic concerns in a less invasive way than traditional ‘knife-to-skin’ surgery. The innovative ‘soft surgery’ method of Plasma Sublimation was born.

Prof. Fippo's tool for plasma sublimation is called the Plexr™. It was the first device of its kind to launch on the market for plasma sublimation and has been adopted by clinics across Europe and the UK since around 2014. Other devices, from other manufacturers have now also joined the marketplace.

Your practitioner will be able to guide you through the procedure fully and determine if you are suitable for treatment. Once you have your individual diagnosis you will know fully what to expect.

What types of Plasma Sublimation Treatment are there?

Plasma sublimation can be utilised in a number of different cosmetic procedures, and via a number of different brands and designs of devices. Yet, it is the Plexr machine and method that was the first to pioneer this modality and has the most in-practice use by practitioners, having been a popular method in Italy for many years before becoming more widespread.

You should be aware that there may be other machines, with differing power settings or treatment methods used in cosmetic clinics, and asking questions about what is being used is important to ensure that you are getting the finest service and treatment possible.

As the pioneering system, some of the following content will focus on the Plexr device.

 

The Plexr™ (full name Plasma Exeresis), has three different wireless handheld devices, each offering a different degree of treatment. The tips that are used for each device are disposable and should not be used for more than one treatment.

The Plexr device is European CE approved as a medical device, but if your practitioner uses a different device, make sure it is also approved and certified, before going ahead with treatment.

What should you do before Plasma Sublimation Treatment?

Your practitioner will give you a thorough consultation before you sign any consent forms, and you will be advised to not wear any make-up on the area that is to be treated.

What can Plasma Sublimation treat?

Plasma sublimation is a soft surgery method that has a very wide range of rejuvenating treatments, and can improve a number of skin complaints. This soft surgery method can be used for:

• Eyelid rejuvenation, including reducing the appearance of baggy lower and upper eyelids, as well as removing fine lines.
• Treating a variety of skin imperfections, including pigmentation marks, moles, sun spots, warts, skin tags and fibromas.
• Tattoo removal.
• Face, brow and neck lifts.
• Improving the appearance of smoker’s lines around the mouth.
• Tightening sagging skin.
• Resolving outbreaks of active adult acne, as well as acne scarring.
• Improvement in the appearance of scarring, including post-surgery scars, and stretch marks.

There has been a number of studies that have shown that plasma sublimation has been effective in several different procedures.

For example, a study by Scarano et al in 2012 on the smoker’s lines of 15 patients showed that the finer wrinkles were completely eradicated, and deeper wrinkles greatly improved with plasma sublimation. This was using the Plexr.

What are the risks and potential complications from Plasma Sublimation Treatment?

In the hands of a trained professional, plasma sublimation is a very low risk procedure. It can even be used on delicate areas, such as the inner rim of the eye, following advanced training.

The side effects are minimal, and will not stop you from going about your daily activities. As mentioned previously there will be some redness and swelling, and the crusting of the skin may feel itchy and sore.

What is the recovery time for Plasma Sublimation Treatment?

As opposed to surgery, most people can return to work the same day, as there is very little downtime.

Following treatment, there will be some heat in the skin, like a sunburnt feeling with redness, and little carbon crusts where the tip has been fired to the skin. These scabs will heal and fall off within 5-7 days, leaving fresh pink skin underneath. There may also be swelling depending on the area of treatment, but that should only last a couple of days.

What should you do after Plasma Sublimation Treatment?

You are likely to feel a burning sensation after treatment, but that will usually disappear in the space of a few hours. If it does persist an anti-inflammatory, such as ibuprofen is recommended. A cold compress should provide significant and immediate relief for the swelling, but an antihistamine will help if it is particularly uncomfortable.

Your clinic will offer you a special hypoallergenic cover-up to disguise the crusting, and it is important to keep the skin protected with a high factor sunscreen (SPF 30+) whilst it is healing. Do not pick or scratch at the carbon crusts as this could lead to scarring or even infection, so keep the area clean and dry. The skin will be particularly sensitive whilst it is healing, so avoid scrubs or alcohol based cleansers.

Your practitioner will provide you with information for a safe aftercare regime, but always ask any unanswered questions.

Who can carry out Plasma Sublimation Treatment?

Plasma sublimation should only ever be carried out by a fully trained, registered and insured medical practitioner such as a doctor or nurse. In some cases, treatment can be supervised and delegated to a trained aesthetician

Summary of Plasma Sublimation Treatment information

Plasma sublimation is a complete innovation in the world of aesthetic medicine, as it claims to offer the same results as an invasive surgical procedure, without a single cut to the skin being required. It also offers better, more instant, and longer lasting results than with other non-surgical modalities such as cryogenics and radiofrequency. This is because the plasma method of skin tightening maintains the integrity of the skin much better.

Plus, since no general anaesthetic is required, plasma sublimation has a much quicker recovery time than surgical procedures, whilst also being quicker and cheaper.

The tools used for plasma sublimation are extremely precise, and can be used on delicate areas (including the inner eyelid) with very little risk of injury. The tool can also be used on any area of the skin, and treat a wide range of complaints from wrinkles, to scars, to skin imperfections. This new innovation in soft surgery is considered to be the next big thing in the aesthetic industry.
