"PLASMA LIFT"
New Portrait Machine
This New Tightening Procedure is
different from all other lasers:
-
Tightens the skin with minimal
downtime
-
Continues to tighten the skin for 6
months after each session!
What makes the "Portrait"
machine different from other skin lasers?
The "Plasma" energy, delivered to
the skin by the "Portrait" machine, is the first and only
treatment scientifically proven to regenerate the inside of the
skin. Its unique "plasma gas" mechanism initiates new collagen
formation very deep below the skin surface. This creates tighter
skin and a lifting effect that continuously increases over 6
months to a year!
How does the "Portrait" work?
The "Portrait" is a machine that
blows puffs of hot gas (energized Nitrogen gas) which delivers
energy deep into the skin, causing a progressive building of
small amounts of new collagen weekly, for up to one year.
What is a session like?
You will experience a mild burning
sensation during the procedure, similar to the snap of a rubber
band. A topical anesthetic cream is generally applied before the
procedure. A session (including the full face) usually takes
around 30 minutes. The treatment takes place in our clinic,
under medical supervision.
Is there any preparation before
the "Plasma" treatment?
The plasma treatment consists of
two phases:
Fees for this treatment are paid in
two installments: first a deposit, followed by the payment of
the balance at a later date. The fees cover all consultations
with the office assistants and all phone inquiries. The initial
set of skin products, necessary for the average preparation, is
supplied to you at no cost. Additionally, certain medications
are prescribed to you during the course of the treatment, and
may be purchased from any pharmacy.
However, if you have had a peel or
a laser resurfacing recently, with Dr. Fanous, you will not
require any preparation.
What downtime should I expect
following treatment?
Downtime is minimal. There will be
some mild redness and flaking of the skin. The outer layer of
the skin may become wrinkled and darker in color, and may shed 2
to 3 days after the treatment. You are generally presentable
within 3 days.
How many treatments do I need?
The ideal treatment regimen is one
session every six months.
What kind of skin changes can I
expect to see?
You will see improved skin
tightness as well as better texture, tone and glow. You will
also notice a reduction of wrinkles due to the new healthier
collagen growth inside your skin.
How long will the effect last?
One of the most amazing and unique
advantages of "Portrait" is the fact that it continues to
stimulate collagen over time. Clinical studies have shown that
the skin improvement increases monthly for at least one year
after each treatment.
Is the "Portrait" procedure safe?
The "Portrait" procedure has
demonstrated an excellent safety profile in clinical studies,
with possible but low incidence of complications, such as:
redness, hypopigmentation, hyperpigmentation, scarring, etc.
