Explorers have yet to find the fountain of youth. Until it is discovered, patients will have to be content with advances in cosmetic skin treatment. LA Plastic Surgery & Dermatology offers a variety of advanced cosmetic facial skin treatments under our double board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Melinda Lacerna. Here, Dr. Lacerna discusses the rejuvenating benefits of nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing.
What Is Nitrogen Plasma Skin Resurfacing?
Nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing is a cosmetic treatment meant to improve the appearance of skin by enhancing firmness and reducing the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. While some cosmetic treatments use needles or lasers, nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing utilizes high-frequency waves. Nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing is an innovative device that delivers heat to the skin, in turn triggering production of new collagen. Collagen can help prevent signs of aging and help foster smooth, supple skin.
The Benefits of Nitrogen Plasma Skin Resurfacing
The primary benefit of nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing is the stimulation of collagen production. This process has a number of skin benefits, including reduction of skin wrinkling and even skin roughness.
Nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing can be used on most skin types. This means that its benefits are available to most patients, including patients with skin conditions like acne and sensitive skin.
Nitrogen Plasma Skin Resurfacing Is Safe and Effective
Nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing is a safe and effective treatment that can be completed without needles or lasers. It does, however, require consistent treatments to maintain the results.
While nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing is safe and effective, it may produce some temporary side effects. It is possible to experience redness, swelling, and/or tenderness after a treatment. These side effects are generally mild.
Nitrogen Plasma Skin Resurfacing Can Treat More than the Face
The face tends to be the most popular place for rejuvenation treatments. However, the face is not the only place on the body that can benefit from rejuvenation treatments. In addition to the face, nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing can be used on the neck, chest, and hands. All of these areas of the body can benefit from nitrogen plasma skin resurfacing, with improved tone and texture and a more youthful appearance.
