Plasma Pen in Mt. Pleasant, SC

The duration varies based on the areas being treated, but a typical session can last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour.

This depends upon your skin quality and treatment goals. Most patients are happy with one Subnovii treatment per area, but may desire another treatment down the road. Routine maintenance can help prolong results.

The Plasma Pen is versatile and can be used to treat various areas, including the face, neck, and hands. It is particularly effective for addressing sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles. Due to the device being small in size, treatments can be performed on areas such as the eyelids where there is fine crepey skin. This device can also be used to remove cherry angioma, seborrheic keratosis and other benign skin growths.

Redness, swelling and crusting are the most common side effects. The plasma pen creates an instant sealed wound on the skin that turns into small scabs that take 5-10 days to heal, but this can vary. The small scabs are a natural and protective barrier to the magic taking place below the surface. As the area heals, the skin may feel tight and itchy. Swelling post treatment is normal and will resolve within a few days. Once the area heals, the skin beneath may look pink. This is renewed skin and any redness will progressively fade. We will discuss all potential side effects, as well as pre and post care instructions during your consultation in order to help reduce side effects.

Some downtime is expected, with temporary redness and swelling. Crusts may form at the treatment sites, which will naturally slough off in a few days. Makeup can be applied once the crusts have fallen off.

The Subnovii plasma pen should not be used if you have an active infection or inflammation at the site to be treated, or if you have a known allergy to an ingredient in the formulations. Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not have the treatment. Some skin types may be at risk for post-procedure pigmentation or scarring issues. Schedule a consultation with us to find out if Subnovii is the right treatment for your skincare goals.

Yes, Plasma Pen treatment can be complemented by other skincare procedures. Our practitioners can create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Individuals with certain medical conditions or skin disorders may not be suitable candidates. A thorough consultation will assess your eligibility and address any concerns.

Every patient will receive specially formulated post-care products and instructions to promote optimal healing. The key elements in the post-care process include keeping the area dry, allowing the scabs to flake off on their own without touching or interference, and avoiding UV exposure. It is important to use sun protection long after treatment.
