Plasma Pen Lesion Removal

The Plasma Pen is a device that produces a plasma micro beam that is applied to the area of choice. This beam generates heat and causes sublimation of the outermost part of the epidermis (outer layer of the skin), without damage to the surrounding or deeper structures of the skin.

Plasma sublimation is a revolutionary method of cosmetic procedure that requires no cutting of the skin, and no injectable anaesthetics. Through the electric arc spark that is generated when the electric current comes into contact with the oxygen surrounding the skin, this electric charge vaporises/sublimates the skin causing tightening of the skin.

Plasma Sublimation has allowed aestheticians to treat signs of ageing and skin complaints, without actually cutting the skin, hence the soft surgery name. Plasma sublimation devices have many uses including lesion removal including Xanthelasma, skin Tags and moles and treating a number of skin imperfections.

Since plasma sublimation has such a wide range of therapeutic uses, it is really important to find quality in-depth training through an experienced aesthetic trainer.
