Opus Plasma

Like other laser skin resurfacing treatments, Opus Plasma Treatment removes only a fraction of the skin in the targeted area. Fractional skin resurfacing creates thousands of tiny micro-injuries to the skin while leaving the surrounding tissue undamaged. The body’s natural healing response repairs these controlled wounds by producing new collagen and elastin, the building blocks of smooth, youthful-looking skin. Unlike traditional laser-based skin resurfacing technologies, however, Opus Plasma precisely controls the time that radio frequency energy makes contact with the skin. This minimizes unwanted inflammation that typically leads to longer recovery times.

Who Can Benefit from Opus Plasma Treatments

Because we can adjust the treatment’s intensity, virtually anyone with concerns about their skin’s appearance is a good candidate for an Opus Plasma procedure. It produces results similar to an aggressive CO2 laser or a gentle laser peel, depending on the setting used. The difference with Opus Plasma is that the treatment and recovery time is minimal compared to other laser treatments.
• The benefits of an Opus Plasma treatment include:
• Reduced appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and loose and saggy skin
• Overall skin rejuvenation
• Minimized acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks
• Popular treatment areas include the face, neck, abdomen, and arms.

What Happens During an Opus Plasma Treatment?

We begin by applying a topical anesthetic to the target area to minimize discomfort during the session. Once the skin is numb, the specialist glides the Opus Plasma hand-piece across the skin. We can treat the entire face in 15 minutes. Once the procedure is finished, we apply a protective balm. Patients usually notice some slight redness and swelling after the treatment, but it resolves on its own within 24 to 48 hours in most cases. More aggressive treatment settings can extend the downtime. Even though most patients see results after a single treatment, we recommend 2 to 3 treatment sessions for optimal results.
