Are there more age-related changes in the skin? The skin loses elasticity and firmness, becomes dry, fades, the first wrinkles appear? This is familiar to every woman after 30-35 years. However, this is not a cause for despair, a surgeon's stabbing, or a painful injection into the face.
Cold plasma rejuvenation is a unique, completely painless method of skin regeneration that allows you to get rid of the signs of aging, wrinkles, age spots, spider veins and other skin problems.
Let's take a look at what a cold plasma is, how it works, and what results you can expect.
Is cold plasma a fantasy or a new word in cosmetology?
Cold plasma is an ionized gas composed of charged and completely neutral particles formed under the influence of an electric current. The percentage of charged particles in cold plasma does not exceed 1%, and the gas temperature is only 30-40 degrees. The active factors are neutral gas, active molecules, charged particles, heat and low ultraviolet radiation.
The effect of cold plasma is strong enough to get an excellent anti-aging effect, but not enough to damage the skin.
Cold plasma is a completely safe procedure, it has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and bactericidal effect.
Cold plasma rejuvenation is a procedure that is performed with the help of a device that works on the basis of plasma current. The device is a special pen with a replaceable tip.
The essence of the procedure is that when the skin is heated to 40 ° C, collagen and elastin begin to be produced naturally, which promotes the regeneration of skin cells.
