Rejuvenate Your Skin

What is a Plasma Pen?

The Plasma Pen is a noninvasive and painless fibroblast therapy for wrinkles, sagging skin, and other signs of aging. Fibroblasts are specialized cells in the skin responsible for producing collagen and other extracellular matrix components, which are crucial for maintaining skin structure and elasticity. Our Highland Park Plasma Pen treatments stimulate collagen production and tissue regeneration, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. It’s an excellent option for those looking to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity without surgery. The highly-trained specialists at Body By Bloch perform Plasma Pen treatments in the office, and there’s no downtime necessary.

How does a Plasma Pen work?

The Body By Bloch team applies a numbing cream to keep you comfortable. The Plasma Pen device generates energy and ionizes gas in the air to create a plasma stream. The plasma stream shoots out of the pen, going just above your skin to transmit the energy into your epidermal and dermal layers.

Plasma Pen treatment focuses on the fibroblasts, the cells that synthesize collagen, so the treatment is sometimes called fibroblasting. This controlled microtrauma causes the new collagen growth needed for skin support, fine-line smoothing, and other skin improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Plasma Pen procedure is generally well-tolerated, but patients may experience some discomfort during the treatment. To minimize any pain, we will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area beforehand. This numbing cream helps to reduce any sensations of discomfort, making the procedure more comfortable.

Most patients enjoy impressive results with one treatment. If you want additional tightening and firming, you can schedule an extra session after seeing your initial results. The Body By Bloch team can discuss your specific needs with you to help you decide on a treatment plan.

Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, but it’s best to avoid intense exercise and sun exposure during the initial healing phase. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth return to normal activities and optimal results from your treatment. 

After your Plasma Pen treatment at Body By Bloch, you can expect tiny scabs to develop and then fall off over the next several days. You should avoid sun exposure during this time. After a few days, you can lightly apply makeup if you wish. As the scabs fall off, you’ll see tighter, more youthful, and fresher skin. After about a month, you’ll notice even better results because new collagen starts to fill in lines around that time. Collagen production can continue for up to three months. 

Treatment sessions typically last between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated.

You’ll start to see initial improvements within a week, and full results will develop over several months as the production of collagen continues. Individual results may vary.
