Are you tired of dull, lifeless skin? Yearning for a more youthful glow? You're not alone. Dr. Rudyard Smith at Smith Medical Group in Chicago, IL proudly offers an array of advanced treatments to help you feel and look your best.

This revolutionary treatment is a game-changer in the field of skin resurfacing, providing a less invasive approach that can deliver remarkable outcomes. We're committed to providing our patients with the most advanced skin resurfacing treatment options available, and plasma skin resurfacing has proven to be one of the most effective. Let’s explore this advanced procedure to discover its benefits and how it can help you.

What is plasma skin resurfacing?

Plasma skin resurfacing is a cutting-edge technology that uses plasma energy to target and improve the skin's surface layers. This is a great alternative to traditional laser resurfacing treatments, as it treats a broader spectrum of skin conditions with less discomfort and downtime. Plasma technology works by stimulating your skin's natural healing properties, which helps improve:

  • Fine lines, wrinkles, and visible pores
  • Scarring and acne scars
  • Sun damage and pigmentation
  • Skin tone and texture

How does it differ from a laser resurfacing treatment?

Many patients find themselves comparing plasma skin resurfacing with traditional laser resurfacing treatments. The primary difference lies in the technology. While both aim to revitalize your skin, plasma resurfacing is less invasive and offers quicker recovery. Laser treatments can often result in longer downtime and are less versatile when treating multiple skin issues simultaneously.

What can I expect during the procedure?

The treatment is generally well-tolerated and can be performed as an outpatient procedure. After an initial consultation, the procedure usually takes about 30 – 60 minutes. Here's what you can expect:

  • Application of numbing cream to reduce discomfort, if needed
  • The plasma device is passed over the targeted areas
  • A cooling mechanism provides almost instant relief

After the treatment, you'll receive post-care instructions to help maximize the results and minimize any potential side effects. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a day or two, making this a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.

What are the benefits of plasma skin resurfacing?

Although plasma skin resurfacing offers its own set of unique benefits, it's essential to highlight the advantages it has over traditional laser treatments. With plasma resurfacing, you can look forward to:

  • Shorter treatment time
  • Less pain and discomfort
  • Reduced downtime
  • Minimal side effects
  • Comprehensive resurfacing of the skin, including both superficial and deeper layers

In addition to these perks, plasma skin resurfacing offers a more uniform treatment, ensuring consistent results across all treated areas. This versatility makes it a go-to solution for various skin concerns, from wrinkles to hyperpigmentation.
