Plexr Plus

The Plexr method offers numerous advantages over traditional cosmetic surgery, contributing to its growing popularity. With no cutting of the skin, stitches are unnecessary, allowing most individuals to return to work on the same day. The procedure is notably quicker than surgery, eliminating the need for injectable anesthetics. Plasma, a recent innovation in the beauty industry, is employed by this highly precise instrument. It ionizes gas particles in the air between its tip and the skin, creating plasma through an electrical arc. This process, known as sublimation, turns a solid directly into gas, ensuring instant results without transferring heat to the surrounding area. The outcome is tissue retraction and tightening, comparable to the effects of invasive surgery.

Plexr offers a versatile range of therapeutic applications, effectively addressing various imperfections without the need for actual skin cutting. It can be employed for:

• Eyelid reconstruction (non-surgical blepharoplasty), addressing concerns such as baggy lower eyelids and excess upper eyelid skin.
• Tattoo removal
• Treating skin imperfections and benign lesions, including warts, fibromas, pigmentation, and sunspots.
• Enhancing the appearance of scars, such as post-surgery scars, acne scars, and stretch marks.
• Reduction of wrinkles, especially around the mouth.
• Facelift and neck lift
• Active acne treatment
• Addressing vulvovaginal atrophy and vaginal dryness
• Non-surgical labiaplasty and wart removal
• Skin rejuvenation via Plexr Shower/microneedling

This non-ablative application of Plexr is tailored for skin rejuvenation, utilizing a specific triangle tip to deliver the treatment with a large spot size. This allows for the treatment of the entire face in just 5 minutes. In contrast to the regular Plexr tip, which generates a concentrated plasma bolt focused on a single spot beneath the tip, the triangle tip in Plexr Shower disperses energy along its length into multiple nano plasma bolts. These nano bolts create micro-injuries on the skin, forming tiny micro-holes. This process induces an immediate skin-tightening effect while preparing the skin to absorb other treatments, such as hyaluronic acid-based products or PRP (platelet-rich plasma), for enhanced results.

Plexr treatment goes beyond simple skin tightening, as it involves the removal of skin. Although the effects of surgical and cosmetic procedures are not entirely permanent due to aging, the positive outcomes of Plexr treatment are expected to endure for years rather than months. It’s important to note that factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and prolonged sun exposure may diminish the duration of these beneficial effects. Additionally, the longevity of results can be influenced by factors like race and genetics. For more detailed information, your consultation can provide personalized insights.

While Plexr is a non-invasive and generally safe treatment, patients may experience minor side effects in the first seven days after the procedure. Brown marks resembling minor scabs, known as carbon crusts, will appear and typically fall off after around five days, revealing new pink skin underneath. In some cases, swelling may occur, especially when treating eyelids, but this typically lasts no more than 3-5 days. Following the recommended aftercare regimen by your practitioner is essential to prevent more severe side effects such as hyperpigmentation.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should refrain from undergoing Plexr, as with other cosmetic procedures. While some individuals with darker skin types may be suitable for the treatment, it is not recommended for those with very dark skin due to a heightened risk of hyperpigmentation (dark spots) or hypopigmentation (light spots) after treatment. This risk increases, especially if the carbon crust is disturbed by scratching, scrubbing, or picking.

To expedite the cleaning of the treatment area, it is advisable to refrain from wearing makeup on the day of your Plexr treatment. The procedure typically lasts 10-40 minutes, contingent on the size of the area. An anesthetic cream is applied and allowed to take effect for approximately 30 minutes before administering multiple closely spaced plasma tip shots in the numb treatment area. You may experience a slightly painful and uncomfortable heat sensation during the procedure. Following treatment, your practitioner will apply a cooling gel to alleviate burning sensations, which should subside within a few hours. Thorough aftercare instructions will be provided to ensure optimal results. Refrain from using exfoliating wash or cleanser for at least a week or until the treatment area has fully healed, opting instead for a pH-balanced soap while avoiding rubbing the area.

While most individuals can drive safely after their Plexr procedure, it is advisable to avoid driving if the treatment area is around the eyes due to potential irritation or swelling.

You will observe immediate positive effects after your initial Plexr treatment, but the optimal results are generally noticeable around three weeks post-treatment. For the most advantageous appearance, it is recommended to undergo three treatments at six-week intervals.
