Congratulations on receiving your plasma skin tightening treatment You’re on your way to enjoy younger, better looking skin. Remember that aftercare measures account for 70% of final results, meaning it’s critical to follow these instructions as closely as you can.
What to do after the treatment:
Once you’re indoors, please apply a thin layer of aftercare balm. This balm will make the skin recovery faster. After a couple of hours you can remove it with a wet cotton or towel by tapping gently.
Do not wash the area for 12 hours.
Things to avoid:
Direct exposure to the sun for 5-7 days. If you go out, try to use a hat and sunglasses.
Face down sleeping if sensitive area was treated, this may increase the chances of swelling.
Makeup or cosmetic products in the treated area for the first 7 days. Makeup usage can result in skin infection.
Invigorating physical activity that causes sweating for 7 days.
Swimming pools for the first 7 days.
Saunas for the first 7 days.

Results
Results will be shown immediately, but remember that they’re augmented due to cell dehydration. They’re likely to be reduced, however, results will keep improving as skin regenerates. End results can be expected at 6 to 8 weeks.
The duration of these results are permanent, however, your skin will keep aging as usual, whenever you feel that you need an extra session, feel free to do so. The minimum wait time for another session is 6 weeks.
The more sagging the tissue, the more sessions it may need for best results.
Everyone is different and benefits differently from the treatment. Results cannot be guaranteed.
