Plasma Eye Lift

Plasma Eye Lift is a cosmetic treatment offered by Vivo Body Studio that uses plasma technology to tighten and rejuvenate the skin around the eyes with potentially permanent results. Unlike traditional surgical methods, this procedure is non-invasive and focuses on stimulating the skin’s natural healing processes. By applying a specialised device that creates a controlled plasma arc, the treatment causes micro-damage to the skin’s surface, leading to tightening and lifting of the skin. This method is particularly effective for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

The number of sessions required for a successful Plasma Eye Lift can vary depending on individual needs and the extent of the skin concerns. Generally, patients may need between one to three sessions to achieve optimal results. The exact number of sessions is determined based on the initial assessment by the practitioner, the skin’s condition, and the patient’s desired outcomes.

Each in-clinic session for the Plasma Eye Lift typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes. The duration of the session depends on the specific areas being treated and the overall treatment plan. During the session, the practitioner will carefully target the treatment area with the plasma device to ensure precise and effective results.

The Plasma Eye Lift procedure involves the use of a plasma pen or device that creates a small electric arc, or plasma discharge, above the skin’s surface. This discharge generates controlled heat, which causes the skin to contract and stimulate collagen production. The procedure is designed to target the superficial layers of the skin without affecting deeper tissues. As the skin heals, it becomes tighter and more youthful in appearance.

The results of a Plasma Eye Lift can be long-lasting, typically enduring from 1 to 3 years, depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle. While the procedure provides immediate improvements, the full effects become more apparent over the following weeks as the skin continues to tighten and rejuvenate. To maintain results, patients may opt for periodic touch-up treatments.

The Plasma Eye Lift procedure is generally well-tolerated by patients. To minimise discomfort, practitioners often apply a numbing cream to the treatment area before starting the procedure. While some patients may experience mild sensations of heat or tingling, most find the procedure to be manageable. Pain levels can vary based on individual pain thresholds and the sensitivity of the skin.

As with any cosmetic procedure, the Plasma Eye Lift carries potential side effects. Common side effects include the following:

• Redness: Common and usually temporary, fading within a few days.
• Swelling: Often occurs in the treated area and typically subsides within a few days to a week.
• Minor Scabbing: Can develop as part of the healing process, generally healing within a week.
• Hyperpigmentation: Rare; involves darkening of the skin in the treated area.

It’s important to follow aftercare instructions to minimise the risk of complications.

The recovery period following a Plasma Eye Lift is relatively short. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days. However, some redness and swelling may persist for a week or so. The skin may also form small scabs, which should not be picked at. You should follow the practitioner’s aftercare instructions for optimal healing.

Many patients find that they can resume work shortly after the procedure, often within 1 to 2 days. If the treatment area is more visibly affected, such as with noticeable redness or swelling, taking a few extra days off might be advisable. It’s essential to plan accordingly and discuss with the practitioner how much time off may be needed based on the extent of the treatment.

Post-procedure care is important for ensuring the best results and minimising potential side effects. You should follow the aftercare recommendation below:

• Keep the treated area clean: Gently cleanse the area as instructed to prevent infection.
• Avoid makeup and skincare products: Do not apply these products for a few days post-procedure.
• Use sun protection: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure to prevent pigmentation issues.
• Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support overall skin health and healing.
• Follow a gentle skincare routine: Use mild, non-irritating products to care for the skin as it heals.

Certain conditions and factors may contraindicate the Plasma Eye Lift procedure. Individuals with active skin infections, severe skin conditions, or those who are pregnant should avoid this treatment. It is also essential to disclose any medications or health conditions to the practitioner to ensure the procedure is safe and suitable.

Vivo Body Studio offers several specialised treatment options for the Plasma Eye Lift, each designed to address different concerns and achieve various levels of skin rejuvenation around the eyes. Here’s an overview of the options available:

• Standard Plasma Eye Lift – this procedure involves applying evenly spaced plasma burns to both the upper and lower eyelids.
• Compact Plasma Eye Lift – this treatment involves concentrated plasma burns that cover a larger surface area on the upper and lower eyelids.
• Fine Lines – minimalist plasma procedure specifically designed to target the delicate lines around the eyes.

Each of these treatment options is designed to cater to different patient needs and preferences, ensuring that individuals can select the approach that best aligns with their aesthetic goals. Vivo Body Studio provides personalised solutions to achieve optimal results in eye area rejuvenation.

The Plasma Eye Lift procedure is generally considered safe when performed by a trained and experienced practitioner. The procedure is non-invasive, reducing the risk of complications compared to surgical methods. However, it is essential to follow all pre- and post-procedure guidelines to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Non-surgical blepharoplasty often involving techniques like laser treatments or injectables, aims to improve the appearance of the eyelids without surgery. The Plasma Eye Lift differs in its approach by using plasma technology to achieve similar results. While both methods aim to rejuvenate the eye area, the Plasma Eye Lift specifically targets skin tightening through plasma discharge.

Non-surgical blepharoplasty can be effective for many patients seeking to reduce signs of aging around the eyes. It offers a less invasive alternative to traditional eyelid surgery and can provide noticeable improvements in skin texture and firmness. The effectiveness varies based on individual factors and the specific techniques used.
