The skin is the first to begin to show a woman’s age, so when the first wrinkles appear, the fair sex begins to fight the signs of aging in every way possible. Surgical methods are considered the most effective, but they have many contraindications, side effects and require long recovery. Modern hardware methods of getting rid of skin defects are no less effective, but they have much fewer disadvantages. One of the newest techniques used in cosmetology practice is called Plasmajet, or plasma rejuvenation.
Plasmajet - plasma rejuvenation!
A little history
Plasmajet technology was developed by Russian scientist Nikolai Suslov, who was involved in the development of revolutionary rejuvenation techniques. In the 80s of the last century, he created a device called “Plazon”, which was used to treat poorly healing skin lesions. Subsequently, he moved to the UK and continued developments in the field of medicine, and in 1993 received a patent for the manufacture and widespread use of a device that made it possible to use plasma temperature as efficiently as possible during medical procedures.
Plasmajet technology was developed by a Russian scientist
After improving the development, a system called Plasmajet appeared, designed for laparoscopic (bloodless) interventions. In 2008, he was awarded the title “Innovation of the Year,” and based on the device, the Plasmajet Derma device was created, which is successfully used to correct signs of aging, acne and other skin defects.

PlasmaJet Derma – plasma rejuvenation
Facial skin - indicates the number of years lived, the state of the immune, nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. It records everything that happened in our lives - laughter turns into rays of wrinkles around the eyes, sad moments - into drooping corners of the lips, sweet and salty excesses - into a double chin and puffiness...
Regular cosmetic procedures and reasonable plastic surgery can improve the condition of facial skin. There are many rejuvenation techniques. Apparatus procedures are becoming an adequate alternative to injection and surgical methods.
TecRussia.ru was particularly interested in the innovative device “PlasmaJet Derma” from (Great Britain). It performs procedures using plasma energy that help get rid of age-related and dynamic wrinkles, acne, eczema and psoriasis. Skin rejuvenation with the PlasmaJet Derma device is carried out using thermal, kinetic and light energy - according to the manufacturers, this is a modern method of non-ablative plasma treatment that has no analogues in the world of cosmetology.
Olga Nikolaevna Zobnina, leading cosmetologist at the Beauty Line clinic, where the new product has already been adopted, talks about what this miracle of technology is, how it works, how the procedures are carried out and what results can be expected: |
↑ Plasma energy in cosmetology: history of the issue
- The main developer of PlasmaJet is Russian physicist Nikolai Suslov. In the eighties of the last century, he worked on plasma techniques for surgical operations and became one of the creators of the Plazon device, used to treat non-healing wounds.
- Subsequently, Suslov moved to the UK and, with a group of scientists, continued work in the field of plasma surgery in. In 1993, she received a patent for the production of a manipulator, which, unlike similar devices, made it possible to use high plasma temperatures with minimal gas consumption.
- The development team led by Suslov continued to improve the device, resulting in the “PlasmaJet” system, designed for cutting and coagulating tissue and performing complex surgical operations. In 2008, it was awarded the title "Innovation of the Year" by the World Society of Laparoscopic Surgeons.
- Based on this system, the PlasmaJet Derma device was developed, intended for the correction of wrinkles and benign skin pathologies.
↑ How the procedure is performed on the PlasmaJet device
The thermal effect of plasma warms up the lower layers of the dermis to 50 degrees in one second without damaging the upper layers. In addition, it contains ions and electrons - they destroy pathogenic bacteria and improve blood circulation. With this complex effect, skin tone increases, its color and structure improve, and intensive production of collagen begins, which remains active for a year after the procedure.
- Nitrogen plasma - a new alternative to laser rejuvenation
The effect of a plasma beam can be compared in effectiveness to laser resurfacing. But, unlike a laser, which removes the upper layers of skin, plasma warms them up and softens them without injuring them. After laser treatment or chemical peels, scabs or burns may form on the skin, which disappear over time. Procedures using plasma do not damage the skin, they are painless and comfortable for the patient - due to this they can be carried out even on very delicate areas, such as around the eyes.

↑ How the PlasmaJet procedure is performed
At the first session, the doctor pre-treats the skin in the Ultra-Pulse mode for several minutes. This helps prepare the skin for the main treatment, reduces its sensitivity and increases the effectiveness of further procedures.
The plasma rejuvenation process itself lasts from half an hour to an hour, depending on the area of the treated area. The subjective sensations are quite comfortable, there is a breath and smell of freshness, like after a thunderstorm. After the session, redness of the skin may be observed, which usually disappears within an hour. Within three days you must avoid active cosmetic products for the skin.

Operating principle
The operation of the device is based on plasma energy, which is formed when argon is heated to high temperatures. It affects the epidermis in three directions:
- light waves penetrate into the deep layers of the skin without disturbing its integrity and have a rejuvenating effect;
- the area treated with plasma is heated to 40 degrees without burns or damage to the skin, which stimulates collagen production and metabolic processes in tissues;
- ions formed when the plasma is heated clean the deep layers of the epidermis no less effectively than laser peeling, but without damaging the skin.
How does plasma energy work?
Using the Plasmajet method allows you to slow down age-related changes and eliminate the first signs of aging. The surface of the skin is smoothed and tightened, acne, blackheads and inflammatory changes disappear, and the complexion becomes healthy. The full effect of the procedure appears after three months - studies have shown that wrinkles are reduced by 40%, and the appearance of the face improves by 70%.
Important! Plasma rejuvenation can only be used for mild skin defects. The method is ineffective for deep wrinkles, large age spots and severe sagging skin.

What is the principle of action of Plasmajet derma
Plasmajet plasma rejuvenation is a non-invasive procedure that affects the skin through plasma energy. The plasma used is formed from neutral argon gas, which forms ions and various compounds when it is heated to high temperatures. These compounds have the ability to penetrate into the deep layers of the skin, exerting a specific effect on them without compromising the integrity of the skin structure.
The action of plasma consists of 3 main elements:
- Light waves, which have the ability to penetrate into the deep layers of the epidermis without damaging its integrity, without causing mutagenic or other disorders, have a rejuvenating effect.
- The area where the procedure is performed is heated to 40 C and, using heat, stimulates the process of collagen formation in the deep layers of the skin. The entire process takes place under the supervision of a specialist.
- Ions formed when plasma is exposed to high temperatures have a kinetic effect. This action can be compared to the result of laser facial cleansing.
Plasma activates natural mechanisms that regulate processes in the skin. It accelerates its regenerative abilities, which provides a rejuvenating effect for a long time, which can be seen after the first procedure.
Advantages and disadvantages
Developers and researchers claim that Plasmajet is an innovative technique that has a number of advantages over other anti-aging procedures:
- affects all layers of the dermis;
- does not cause pain or damage to the skin;
- does not contribute to the progression of malignant neoplasms;
- stimulates collagen production and the formation of new cells;
- has an antiseptic effect, destroys pathogenic microorganisms and fungi;
- is not addictive;
- has a long-lasting effect.
The Plasmajet technique has a number of advantages
The disadvantages include the fact that Plasmajet technology is effective only for unexpressed skin defects and has a considerable number of contraindications. In addition, it belongs to innovative techniques, so it is not available in all beauty salons and is quite expensive. Some women who have tried this method of rejuvenation on themselves note that, compared to laser treatment, the effect of plasma rejuvenation is quite weak.

We present to your attention reviews of people who have experienced the effect of the Plasmajet derma device
Irina, 36 years old.
Hello, I want to share my experience with all the girls. At the age of 32, I began to develop small wrinkles around my eyes and mouth and this really upset me. I started thinking about solving this problem. And when I came to the cosmetology center, they began to offer me all kinds of procedures for rejuvenation. I liked the description of the plasmajet device the most and this is the first thing I decided to try. The effect did not take long to arrive and delighted me. After the first procedure, the skin became better and began to glow. I underwent the procedure for 2.5 months and again I look no more than 25 years old. I advise everyone to try it.
Maria, 18 years old.
Good day to all. At the age of 15, like many teenagers, I developed acne. For two years I struggled with this problem, because I was very annoyed by my peers, and it was unpleasant for me. The rash was almost all over my face. My mother and I went to a cosmetology center to see a dermatologist, who recommended a course of plasma treatment. And it was worth it. For more than 6 months I have been walking around with clean skin on my face without using any cosmetics. I am very glad that I was cured. I had 7 sessions and that was it. There were no rashes.
Susanna, 45 years old.
Hello, a friend of mine has been suffering from second-degree diabetes mellitus for 15 years. And as a result, one of the complications began to appear ulcers on the legs. At first he endured it, but then the pain became unbearable. He began drinking alcohol in large quantities to numb the pain. Our mutual friends recommended the PlasmaJet device for his treatment. He agreed and did several procedures. As a result, the ulcers began to disappear without leaving scars. He still continues to do procedures to complete the course of treatment. But I’m glad that he went for this procedure and no longer experiences pain. The main thing is not to give up.
Sofia, 51 years old
Good afternoon. Girls, I wanted to talk about how I radically changed my life at 50 years old. I am no longer a young girl. Old age has caught up with me. And in addition to it, there are a lot of wrinkles on my face, which can’t help but worry me. Time flies so quickly, and I still want to catch the admiring glances of men on me. And so, I went to the Internet to regain at least some of my youth. Effective plasma rejuvenation was the first thing I saw, but I ignored it because I thought it was a hoax. I tried everything I could, but it didn’t even get to the point of surgery, I’m afraid to go under the knife. I decided to try my luck and signed up for a plasma rejuvenation session. I'm still in shock. I look 10-15 years younger, and I feel another 20 years younger. I have a loved one, and I have never been happier. If in a few long years old age catches up with me again, I know exactly what to do about it.
How is the procedure performed?
Plasma treatment does not require special preparation or lifestyle changes. 2-3 days before the procedure, you should avoid using aggressive scrubs and peels, sunbathing or going to a solarium. The duration of the session depends on the severity of the defect and the scale of the treated area, and ranges from 15 to 60 minutes.
The first stage involves cleansing the skin, treating the surface with a disinfectant and applying a local product (if necessary). Next, the doctor selects the necessary parameters and treats a certain area with plasma. After completing the procedure, a healing cream is applied to the face.
How is the procedure performed?
After using Plasmajet, redness appears on the skin , which goes away within an hour , as well as small red dots. Over time, they become covered with crusts that fall off after 5-10 days. To achieve the desired effect, 3-4 procedures are usually sufficient, carried out at intervals of 3 weeks. Next, you need to undergo maintenance procedures every 6-12 months.
For a week, skin that has been exposed to Plasmajet must be protected from the sun and wind - apply protective products before leaving the house. You cannot use scrubs and other aggressive substances, decorative cosmetics, or go to the bathhouse, solarium or swimming pool. To cleanse the skin, you should not use soap or washing gels, but antiseptic agents.

The procedure is painless and does not require local anesthesia. The duration of the procedure depends on the size of the area being treated and on average does not last long, about 15-30 minutes.
Initially, the specialist selects the most optimal mode of operation of the device. At this time, the patient takes a comfortable position on the cosmetology chair. The skin is specially treated before the procedure to reduce the intensity of the sensations experienced.
The specialist takes the device in his hand and, at a certain distance from the skin, directs a plasma stream at it, which appears at the tips of the device. With each session the regime will be changed and the effect of the plasma will increase. Once completed, the leather does not require further processing. He advises you to refrain from sunbathing, solarium, scrubbing and peeling for several days.
On average, you need to complete a course of 5-8 sessions, with an interval of 3 weeks, but the number of sessions is individual for each. The effect will become noticeable after the first procedure, but to achieve maximum results you need to wait 2.5-4 months.
