Q

Why is it that sun can effect the healing time?

A

The serum is assisting elastin production which in turn effects the melanin production. When melanin in the skin is exposed to sun the rays it.may cause the marks to increase in hyperpigmentation

A

Mirconeedling involves needles that are spread apart to creat micro damage on skin . While not causing enough trauma to stretch marks. In contrast SR employs tattoo needles that make it easier to target only the area of the stretch mark and to penetrate the skin deep enough.

70
Q

What is a plasma pen?

A

Also known as fibro-blast pen

A plasma pen, also known as a plasma fibroblast pen, is a cosmetic device used in non-surgical skin tightening and rejuvenation treatments. It utilizes a technology called plasma, which is created by generating an electrical discharge between the pen tip and the skin’s surface.

During the procedure, the plasma pen produces tiny arcs of electricity that create small, controlled injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production. As the skin heals, it may tighten and improve in texture, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and certain skin imperfections.

Plasma pen treatments are often used for facial rejuvenation, including addressing crow’s feet, nasolabial folds, and loose skin. It’s important to note that while some people may experience positive results, the effectiveness and safety of plasma pen treatments can vary, and potential side effects or risks should be discussed with a qualified skincare professional or dermatologist before undergoing the procedure.

71
Q

What is hifu?

A

HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy to target specific layers of tissue beneath the skin, stimulating collagen production and resulting in skin tightening and lifting.

During a HIFU treatment, ultrasound waves are directed to the desired depth in the skin, causing thermal coagulation points. This thermal energy initiates a wound-healing response, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. The increased collagen helps to lift and tighten the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and promoting a more youthful complexion.

HIFU is commonly used for facial rejuvenation, including lifting the brows, tightening the jawline, and reducing the appearance of sagging skin. It is considered a non-surgical alternative to facelifts, with minimal downtime. As with any cosmetic procedure, it’s essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if HIFU is suitable for your specific skin concerns and goals.
