The Plasma Pen is the newest and most advanced nonsurgical skin tightening and rejuvenation treatment on the market. This revolutionary product helps fight signs of aging, such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and uneven skin tone and texture. In just one treatment, you could see smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. At Wellskin Med Spa in Dallas, TX, we specialize in plasma fibroblasting, offering this treatment to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. With our expertise, we’re here to guide you every step of the way toward refreshed, radiant skin.
What Is Plasma Pen?
The Plasma Pen is an advanced, nonsurgical device used for skin rejuvenation and tightening. By precisely targeting the skin’s surface and vaporizing tiny pinpoints of skin, it helps smooth uneven texture, reduce fine lines, and diminish deeper wrinkles over time. This treatment is a good way to achieve firmer, smoother skin without invasive procedures.
What Is the Science Behind Plasma Pen?
The Plasma Pen ionizes nitrogen and oxygen to create plasma energy, which interacts with the skin’s surface. Without ever touching the skin, the pen emits a controlled flash of plasma energy that vaporizes the outer layers, shrinking the skin instantly. The plasma energy generates heat which is transferred into the dermis where it stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen. This supports the skin’s structure and enhances its natural elasticity over time.
A Few Benefits of Plasma Pen Treatments
Non-Invasive Alternative to Surgery
The Plasma Pen offers a nonsurgical way to tighten skin and improve its appearance. It works without making any incisions or penetrating the skin, which means there’s no need for general anesthesia or lengthy recovery periods. Many patients prefer this option for addressing sagging skin or wrinkles because it provides noticeable results without the risks associated with surgery.
Stimulates Natural Healing
One of plasma fibroblasting’s benefits is its ability to trigger your body’s natural healing process. By stimulating collagen and elastin production, the treatment supports ongoing skin improvement long after the session, helping you achieve smoother, firmer skin that looks and feels refreshed.
Pinpoint Accuracy for Small Areas
The Plasma Pen is especially effective for treating small, delicate areas that are challenging to address with other methods. Because the device never touches the skin and treats one tiny area at a time, the energy can be precisely applied to areas such as crow’s feet, lip lines, or the loose skin around the eyelids. We can apply the plasma energy in a gentle spray over the area or at specific points, depending on the type of treatment desired.
Suitable for Most Skin Types
This treatment is versatile and can be effective for a wide range of skin tones and textures. If you have more sensitive skin, we can use products before and after the treatment to properly prepare the skin and help it heal more quickly. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your skin to make sure it’s a good match for this treatment.

What to Expect From Your Plasma Pen Treatment
The Plasma Pen treatment is a precision skin resurfacing and tightening treatment that uses an electrical discharge to deliver plasma gas to the skin’s surface. Each electric discharge creates a tiny microinjury (no bigger than a pinhead) that helps stimulate cellular regeneration, increase collagen and elastin production, and encourage tightening of the underlying tissue.
Before our Plasma Pen in Dallas is used, the treatment area will be cleaned, and a topical numbing cream will be used to reduce discomfort. Once the numbing cream has taken effect, your provider will hover the handheld pen over the skin — never directly touching the skin —in a grid-like pattern over the targeted area. You may feel some tingling during the treatment session. However, the majority of people who have had the treatment report minimal discomfort. Depending on the size and location of the targeted area, treatment may take anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes.
Many of our clients achieve their desired results in just one treatment. However, depending on your specific goals, you may benefit from a series of two to three treatments. For more comprehensive results, the Plasma Pen can be combined with other skin rejuvenating treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, injectable fillers, or facial treatments.
What to Expect From Your Plasma Pen Results
While you may notice some positive changes immediately following your treatment, the rejuvenation process can take up to 12 weeks or longer. After your treatment, you’ll have small pin-point dots that should scab over and heal after about a week. Over the next several weeks you should notice your skin appearing tighter and smoother. Although individual results vary, many of our clients see a significant improvement in their skin after 1 treatment.
The Plasma Pen skin tightening treatment is a safe, effective, nonsurgical alternative that provides dramatic results without the lengthy downtime associated with surgery. Even though your skin will continue to change as you age, you should be able to enjoy your Plasma Pen results for years to come.
Recovery After Plasma Pen Treatment
After a Plasma Pen treatment, you may experience some temporary redness and swelling along with the tiny scabs on the treated areas. The scabs are part of the natural wound-healing process and will shed on their own over the following days, revealing tighter, smoother skin beneath. While the full skin remodeling process can take up to 12 weeks, most patients find that visible downtime lasts just a few days.
To support your recovery and optimize results, we recommend following a few essential aftercare tips:
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from direct sunlight by wearing sunscreen or avoiding outdoor activities during peak hours. This helps prevent hyperpigmentation during the healing phase.
- Use the Right Products: Stick to the aftercare products we provide or recommend, as they are specifically designed to soothe and support your skin during recovery.
- Avoid Other Products: Refrain from using harsh exfoliants, active ingredients like retinol, or products not recommended for post-treatment care.
- Do Not Pick at Scabs: Let the scabs fall off naturally to avoid scarring or disrupting the healing process.
Frequently Asked Questions About Plasma Pen
Are You a Candidate for Plasma Pen?
The plasma skin pen can be an excellent choice for women and men who want to:
- Improve skin tone and texture
- Tighten mild-to-moderate sagging skin
- Create better facial contours
The Plasma Pen is not for you if you are breastfeeding or pregnant, allergic to topical anesthetic, or if you have an infection at the treatment site. People who have a history of keloidal or hypertrophic scarring should use caution when seeking this type of skin resurfacing treatment. Be sure to be open about your health history, so that your provider can help you decide if fibroblast plasma therapy is right for you.
Is Plasma Pen Painful?
Plasma Pen fibroblasting is generally well-tolerated, but comfort levels vary from patient to patient. A numbing cream is applied before the treatment to minimize discomfort. During the procedure, you may feel a slight warmth or tingling sensation. After the session, mild sensitivity or tenderness in the treated area is common as the skin begins its natural healing process. If you have concerns about discomfort, we can discuss additional measures to make you feel at ease.
How Long Do Plasma Pen Results Last?
Results from a Plasma Pen skin treatment can be long-lasting, often up to three years, depending on your skin type, age, and lifestyle. The treatment stimulates collagen production, which improves skin firmness and elasticity over time. To maintain your results, we recommend a good skincare regimen and periodic touch-up treatments as needed. External factors like sun exposure, smoking, and aging can also impact how long the results last.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Most patients see sufficient improvement after just one session, especially for fine lines, wrinkles, and skin tightening. Deeper wrinkles or more extensive areas may benefit from additional treatments. We will create a plan based on your skin’s condition and your goals. Sessions are typically spaced several months apart to allow the skin to fully heal and produce collagen between treatments.
What Areas of the Body Can Be Treated With Plasma Pen?
The Plasma Pen is highly versatile and can treat many areas of the body. Commonly treated areas include:
- Around the eyes (crow’s feet, upper and lower eyelids)
- Forehead lines
- Smile lines and marionette lines
- Neck and jawline
- Décolletage
- Hands
- Stretch marks on the body
This treatment is precise enough to target small areas and powerful enough to address larger regions with noticeable results.
How Much Does Plasma Pen Cost?
The cost of a Plasma Pen treatment depends on the size of the area being treated and the number of sessions recommended. Smaller areas may cost less than larger or multiple areas. Before the treatment, we’ll provide a personalized estimate based on your specific treatment plan and goals.
