What Is Plexr and How Does It Work?

Plexr is a non-surgical treatment that uses plasma energy to target and remove unwanted skin cells, tighten loose skin and rejuvenate the treated area. The device creates a plasma arc – a 4th state of matter – that sublimates (turns directly from solid to gas) superficial skin cells without damaging the surrounding skin. Gas particles are turned into ions, creating a spark that removes unwanted skin cells while promoting skin tightening and collagen production. This is highly controlled and precise making it suitable for delicate skin around the upper or lower eyelids as well as skin tags, skin lesions, stretch marks and other skin imperfections. Plexr works for all skin types and concerns, a versatile solution for many patients.

Plexr basically burns away superficial skin cells in a dot-like pattern leaving the underlying dermis intact. This triggers collagen production and skin tightening resulting to a firmer more youthful looking skin. The treatment is often referred to as “plasma soft surgery” or “soft surgery” because it gives results similar to surgical blepharoplasty (eyelid correction) but without surgery or downtime.

How Long Does Plexr Last?

  • Duration of Results: Most patients get long lasting results from Plexr, up to 1-2 years. Results are long term but as with all skin treatments, natural aging will still continue and some patients may want to have subsequent treatments to maintain optimal results. Treatment session duration varies, for example 30 minutes for the eye area.* Number of Treatments: Many patients see significant results after one session but depending on the severity of loose or sagging skin 1-3 treatments may be recommended spaced 6-8 weeks apart. Follow up appointments and additional treatments can further enhance results. Healing time is 2 weeks, during which you must follow aftercare instructions to ensure proper recovery and avoid complications.

Plexr Treatment Process

  • Consultation: A thorough assessment is done to determine your suitability and develop a customized treatment plan for your specific skin concerns like hooded eyes, eye bags or excess skin on the upper eyelids.
  • Anaesthetic Cream: A local anaesthetic or numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure comfort during the procedure.
  • Treatment Time: Sessions last 10-60 minutes depending on the size of the area being treated.
  • Plasma Application: Plexr uses plasma treatment to create a series of tiny dots on the superficial skin, targeting only unwanted skin cells while preserving the surrounding skin.
  • Immediate Aftercare: A brown carbon crust forms on each dot which is normal and should not be picked. This crust protects the pink fresh skin underneath and will naturally fall off within 5-7 days.

Healing Process and Recovery Time

  • Initial Healing: The treated area may be red, swollen and tender for several days. Swelling is more common around the eyelid area and can be significant for 2-3 days.
  • Carbon Crust: The carbon crusts will flake off naturally within a week, revealing pink skin that will gradually return to your normal skin tone over the following weeks.
  • Full Recovery: Most patients are fully recovered within 14-28 days but the pink skin may persist for several weeks as the area continues to heal and remodel.
  • Minimal Downtime: You can go back to work within 0-3 days but social downtime may be 7-10 days due to visible crusting and swelling.
  • Aftercare: Avoid sun exposure and keep the treated area clean and dry. A soothing cream may be provided to aid the healing process and minimize the risk of complications like infection or hyperpigmentation.

Plexr

Plexr has many benefits making it a popular choice for those looking for non surgical solutions to various skin concerns. One of the main advantages is that it eliminates the need for surgery, reducing the risks and downtime. Plexr treats excess skin, skin tags and loose skin on the upper and lower eyelids. By using plasma energy Plexr stimulates the healing process and promotes collagen production resulting to tighter and smoother skin.

Treatment sessions are quick, 30-60 minutes and minimal downtime making it perfect for those with busy schedules. Plexr is a safe treatment for all skin types but note that those with darker skin may have a higher risk of pigmentation problems. Plexr is a non surgical solution for skin tightening and rejuvenation with significant results without the need for surgery.

Cost and Availability

Plexr treatment pricing begins with a consultation fee of £120. For eyelid treatments, each upper or lower eyelid session is £595, or £1,495 for a course of three. Treating both upper and lower eyelids together costs £895 per session, or £2,495 for a course of three; alternatively, the upper or lower eyelids can be swapped with the Crow’s Feet area at no extra charge, though adding this area incurs a supplement of £395. Mini facelifts are priced at £595, while maxi facelifts are £945. Necklifts are available for £895, with any necessary additional treatments charged at £395. Mole removal starts from £345, extra areas are £395 each, and peri-oral treatments are £845.

Plexr is available at many clinics and spas but make sure to choose a reputable and experienced practitioner to get optimal results and minimize risks. Some clinics may offer package deals or discounts for subsequent treatments so ask about these during the initial consultation. By choosing a skilled practitioner and understanding the cost structure, patients can make informed decisions about their Plexr treatment.

Side Effects and Risks

As with any treatment, Plexr has some side effects and risks. Common side effects are swelling, redness and crusting in the treated area which can last for several days. These side effects are usually mild and part of the normal healing process. But in some cases patients may experience more severe side effects like scarring, infection or changes in skin pigmentation. To minimize risks, follow the practitioner’s aftercare instructions. Plexr may not be suitable for those with active infection or taking certain medications. A thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner will determine if Plexr is a treatment option for you and ensure a safe and effective experience.

Realistic Expectations

Have realistic expectations when undergoing Plexr treatment. Plexr can give significant results for skin tightening and rejuvenation but is not a substitute for surgical blepharoplasty. Results may vary depending on individual skin concerns and number of sessions. Plexr can address skin imperfections but may not eliminate all issues.

A series of treatments may be needed to achieve optimal results and maintenance treatments may be required to sustain the effects. During the initial consultation discuss your expectations and concerns with a qualified practitioner to determine the best course of treatment. By setting realistic expectations you can have a satisfactory outcome and enjoy Plexr treatment.

Consultation and Preparation

Before undergoing Plexr treatment schedule an initial consultation with a qualified practitioner. During this consultation the practitioner will assess the area to be treated, discuss your skin concerns and determine the best course of treatment. The practitioner will explain the treatment process, application of local anesthetic cream, use of plasma energy and expected outcomes.

Follow the practitioner’s instructions carefully, avoid sun exposure, use numbing cream and attend follow up appointments as scheduled. By combining Plexr with other treatments like mole removal or eyelid correction you can have a more comprehensive and satisfying outcome. A thorough consultation and preparation is crucial to ensure a safe and effective treatment, so you can enjoy the full benefits of Plexr.
