Aging is inevitable and impossible to avoid – your skin shows the experiences of life as the external and internal factors take their toll. Despite this, a rejuvenating treatment exists that can help relieve your skin of these cosmetic concerns, essentially turning back the hands of time and giving you a more youthful image.

Your skin gradually diminishes in quality as you age. There are a number of reasons why this occurs. As early as your 30’s, your production of collagen, a structural protein that maintains skin firmness and elasticity, declines. UV rays emitted by the sun gradually take a toll on your skin, which affects your tone and texture. The natural forces of gravity tug and pull, making your skin sag. Aging is inevitable and impossible to avoid – your skin shows the experiences of life as the external and internal factors take their toll. Despite this, a rejuvenating treatment exists that can help relieve your skin of these cosmetic concerns, essentially turning back the hands of time and giving you a more youthful image. This treatment is known as Opus Plasma skin resurfacing.

Opus Plasma, developed by Alma, a lead developer of aesthetics technology, is an FDA-approved skin rejuvenation treatment. The treatment involves a device that has metal pins which emit radiofrequency energy while gliding across the top of the skin. When this energy is introduced to the skin, it causes a plasma to form, which heats the skin and ultimately creates micro-injuries. These micro-injuries prompt the body’s natural healing response, which boosts the production of collagen and elastin. The micro-ablative treatment allows for controlled damage, meaning it is safe, precise and reduces the possibility for inflammation.

Your Opus Plasma treatment will begin with applying a topical anesthetic to the treatment site to reduce discomfort. When your skin is prepped, the device will be applied to your skin, which is then moved evenly across your entire face, ensuring consistency. The device’s energy will be adjusted to suitable settings based on your unique skin tone and type. Opus Plasma is a particularly unique treatment because it takes only 15 minutes to treat the entirety of the facial structure. Afterwards, you leave with a red to flushed appearance, some compare this to a mild to severe sunburn.
