What is plasma?

Plasma is ionized gas with an added energy. Compared to gas, it has a much higher energy level. Portrait Plasma adds energy to nitrogen gas, which creates nitrogen plasma used for treatment.

What does plasma do to the skin tissue?

c0113980_18314042.jpg
After plasma application
In the deepest part the plasma reaches, vacuolar degeneration occurs. The stratum surface remains and functions as a barrier.
Wound healing elements such as growth factor remains inside. No bacteria/water can enter from the outside either.
c0113980_18322578.jpg
4 days after plasma application
New surface skin and stratum layer is being created. The old skin/stratum are still found on the surface, working as a barrier. Without any infections or stimulations from the outside, new skin is being regenerated on the inside.
c0113980_18325690.jpg
5-9 days after plasma application (depending on treatment level)
New skin regenerates and old skin/stratum that was covering the surface falls off, which allows growth of fibroblast and collagen.

FAQ

How long does it take until I see results?
That depends on the energy level settings.
What is the correlation between energy settings and the amount of sessions?
Assuming a high level energy requires 1 session, a mid level energy will require 2~3 sessions, low level will require 4~5 sessions, and super low level will require 6~7 sessions.
Does plasma hurt?
With anesthetic cream, used to efficiently distribute plasma and moisturize the skin, you will not experience any pain.
Plasma treatment procedure
Face wash -> anesthetic cream -> plasma application -> cooling -> moisturizing pack The treatment lasts about an hour.
Aftercare for plasma treatment
After treatment, please refrain from washing your face for 8 hours. After plasma treatment, your surface skin will gradually dry up. It is important to keep it moist. Please apply the prescribed lotion/ointment as instructed.
Continue until the old tissues on the surface fall off naturally. Do not peel off old tissues by force for it will disturb the healing process and lead to troubles like pigmentation.
Plasma treatment intervals
Super low level/low level: Once every 3-4 weeks, total of 5-7 sessions. Mid level: Once a month, 3-4 sessions. High level: You will experience ideal results with one treatment. Regarding maintenance treatment: For low-mid level treatments, you will need to come in once every 6 months~1 year. For high-level treatments, you will need to come in once every 1~2 years.

eCO2 CO2 fractional laser

This is a new type of fractional laser treatment using carbon dioxide laser. This method creates small holes in the skin and utilizes the skin's healing property for a more beautiful skin. Not only is it effective on wrinkles, sagging, stains, or tightening pours, it is also effective on treating acne scars, stretch marks, and even striation of pregnancy. If chemical peeling, photo facial, radio wave, other fractional laser methods, or other treatments didn't work for you, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Depending on the output settings, you can adjust the depth of the laser!! (Based on treatment needs)

Comparison of the ablations depth differences according to pulse energy (mJ) (120µm Tip setting)

CCT (Control Chaos Technology)

Conventional fractional laser equipment applied laser by rows against the skin and concentrated too much heat at once, which causes pigmentation in some cases where the patient's skin tone was relatively dark. With CCT (Control Chaos Technology), installed on eco2 fractional laser, decreases down time and risk of pigmentation. After one laser is shot, the computer-generated system shoots another randomly generated beam to the farthest location possible, which suppresses damages from excessive heat.

This is a fractional laser using Nd:YAG laser (1440 nm). It applies 1200 extremely thin lasers on a 1cm square surface. This new treatment utilizes the healing power of skins, which creates new skin and revitalizes your skin, solving your wrinkles, sagging, or stains problems. Compared to the eco2, a CO2 fractional laser, this method requires less down time and a shorter recovery from redness. You can apply makeup right after treatment as well.

FAQ

What is affirm treatment?
Fractional therapy is a new type of treatment that creates tiny holes on the skin using lasers and revives the skin itself utilizing growth factor properties of the skin.

"Fraxel", laser equipment introduced to the market a few years ago, is not the best method for Asian skin vulnerable to pigmentation and stains. The size of the laser is too deep and the output is unstable. On the other hand, Affirm can apply stable laser output and depth and create multiple tiny holes. This decreases the down time of the patient and minimizes side effects such as pigmentation, making it an effective anti-aging treatment.
What kind of laser is Affirm laser?
As the name "Fraction" suggests, it consists of tiny lasers. Affirm is a new type of fractional laser that uses a 1440nm wavelength Nd-YAG laser with CAP (Combined Apex Pulse Technology) technology, allowing it to create 1000 micro laser (300μm in depth) holes on a 10mm diameter surface.

This micro laser creates a tiny hole, 0.1mm in size, invisible to the naked eye. Utilizing the skin's property to heal itself, a new skin cell replaces that void. One treatment can revive 15~20% of skin.
Does the treatment hurt?
The pain of treatment has decreased due to the cooling system that sends cool air onto the skin. If you are sensitive to pain, you can request to have an anesthetic cream applied to your skin around the eyes.
Furthermore, with Fraxel, there was a need to apply blue pigment called optical guide blue. With Affirm, there is no need to apply contact gels and it can be applied directly onto your skin. This allows for a shorter treatment time.
What kind of results can I expect with this treatment?
This treatment will revive your skin damaged from ultraviolet rays and aging (photo aging skin). It is especially effective for tiny wrinkles around the eye. It revitalizes your skin as a whole and improves stains. It is also effective for tightening up pours of the nose and cheek. You can even expect improvement of skin damage caused by acne, post-surgery scars, and striation from pregnancy, and stretch marks.
How long is one treatment? How many times do I have to get treatment? Does it hurt?
Since there's no need to apply blue pigments or contact gel upon treatment, one session only takes about 15~20 minutes. With our cooling system, the pain levels during treatment are kept to a minimum. There is no need for surface anesthetics either. One application can replace 15%~20% of skin, so you will need about 5~6 sessions with a 3-week span in between.

INFINI

This new treatment uses RF (High frequency). By using a hand piece with an extremely thin needle, it can reach deeper into the skin. Compared to the conventional RF treatment, where heat was applied from the outside, this treatment allows us to reach and stimulate the fibroblast more directly, which leads to a more effective treatment for sagging skin.
