Plasma IQ Treatment in Oakville, Ontario

What is Plasma IQ Treatment?

Plasma IQ Treatment is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that utilizes plasma technology to target small areas of the skin. This treatment creates controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. As a result, it promotes collagen production, tightens the skin, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and other signs of aging. Plasma IQ is known for its precision and ability to treat delicate areas that traditional lasers might not be able to address.

At ICLS, we utilize the procedure to address those areas, such as wrinkles around the eyes and lips.

What is Fibroblast Treatment?

Fibroblast Treatment, also known as fibroblast therapy, is a non-laser, non-surgical approach to skin tightening and rejuvenation. This treatment specifically targets fibroblasts, which are collagen-producing cells in the dermis layer of the skin. By using a device that delivers energy in the form of plasma to heat the skin, it causes micro-damage that stimulates fibroblast activity, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. In relation to Plasma IQ, fibroblast treatment shares a similar mechanism of action, with Plasma IQ being a specialized form of fibroblast therapy that offers targeted, precise application for effective skin regeneration. Both aim to improve skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance by enhancing the skin’s natural regeneration processes.

Am I a Good Candidate?

You might be a good fit for Plasma IQ skin tightening if:

• You have wrinkles around your eyes, mouth, or forehead.
• You have sagging skin around your jawline, eyes, or neck.
• You have little skin bumps like skin tags or moles.
• You have lighter skin, which lowers the risk of dark spots after treatment.

Plasma IQ might be an excellent option for you if you’re looking to address any of these issues and experience immediate skin tightening and smoothing effects.

How Much Does Plasma IQ Cost?

Taking care of your skin is an investment, and it makes sense that you want to know what you’ll spend on Plasma IQ skin tightening. At ICLS, here’s what you can expect to pay:

• One Area: $995 to target a spot about the size of your palm.
• Two Areas: $1545 for two spots if done simultaneously.
• Additional Areas: $550 for each extra spot on the same day as your first treatment. Otherwise, it’s $995 per area.

Usually, you’ll need 3-4 treatments for the best results.

How to Get Ready?

If you’ve decided fibroblast treatment is right for you, here’s what you should do before your appointment:

• Avoid the Sun: Stay out of the sun for a couple of weeks before.
• Steer Clear from Certain Products: Stop using certain skincare products, such as retinol, that can make your skin sensitive.
• Arrive with Clean Skin: Wash the area you’re treating on the day of your appointment, but don’t use lotions or makeup.

What Happens During a Procedure?

During a plasma fibroblast skin tightening procedure, Dr. Sapra and his team employ specialized tools to enhance the skin’s appearance. The process begins with Dr. Sapra applying a numbing cream to your skin to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. He then uses the Plasma IQ pen, which emits a precise spark to targeted areas of the skin. This spark is crucial as it initiates the skin’s self-healing process, encouraging collagen production. As a result, the skin becomes tighter and smoother.

The entire Plasma IQ procedure typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, making it a relatively quick option for skin regeneration.

Recovery Timeline for Plasma IQ

You won’t need much time to recover from Plasma IQ, but you’ll need to take care of your skin. Here’s what to expect:

• After Appointment: Your skin might be slightly swollen or red, but it’ll improve in a few days.
• 1-7 Days: Scabs might form, but don’t pick at them. Let them fall off naturally.
• 7-10 Days: The scabs should be gone, but stay out of the sun and be gentle with your skin.
• 8-12 Weeks: Your skin will look even better as time goes on as your body makes more collagen.
