Plexr®
How does it work?
The Plexr® is a medical device that produces a small electrical arc (plasma) that is applied to the area of choice. This arc generates heat and causes sublimation (when anything solid turns into a gas without first becoming a liquid) of the outermost part of the epidermis (the outer layer of the skin), without damage to the surrounding or deeper structures. Plexr® treatments are referred to as non-ablative (non-wounding), soft surgery which can take approximately 15 – 90 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the severity of each case.
During the treatment, the plasma significantly tightens, lifts, resurfaces, and regenerates practically any area of the skin.
What are the indications and commonly treated areas?
- Non-surgical blepharoplasty (upper and lower eyelid tightening)
- Reduction of fine lines & wrinkles
- Peri-oral rhytides (smoker’s lines)
- Acne treatment
- Removal of fibromas (benign growths), naevi (moles and skin tags), verrucas (warts), cheloids (scars), stretch marks, xanthelasma (fatty deposits usually on the eyelids), age/sun spots and achromic (white) spots
- Lightening of tattoos of any colour
- Correction of post-acne and other scars
- Treatment of stretched skin around the naval
What are the benefits?
This non-evasive procedure requires only local anaesthesia or topical numbing cream.
After the healing phase of about 1 week, there is a significant improvement of fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
