THE TREATMENT
By puncturing tiny holes in the skin, the surface tissue contracts to give an immediately visible skin lift effect. As the epidermis creates fresh new cells, the process of collagen is enhanced, and elastic creation makes the skin appear stronger, fresher and lifted over a short period of time.
Treatment areas of the OVEO Plasma Pen include areas with stretchmarks, acne scarring, sunspots, eyelids, crow’s feet, jowl and neck areas amongst other areas that have become loose over time.

THE PROCESS
AFTERCARE
The following aftercare advice is essential to help reduce the risk of treatment complications, to improve your comfort/healing and to help achieve the best possible results from treatment.
• The treated area of skin may feel slightly tender and appear red and swollen afterwards. You may occasionally experience skin peeling and appearances may be similar to mild sunburn. These effects will resolve naturally and should be much improved after 48 hours but may take longer to settle. You may experience some minor bruising which may take 1-2 weeks to resolve in some cases.
• Avoid any perfumes, fake tan or other harsh chemicals for 72 hours after treatment.
• Avoid any makeup for 24 hours after treatment as this can increase the risk of infection.
• Avoid rubbing or picking the treated area.
• Avoid any skin exfoliation for 72 hours following treatment.
• It is important to use a regular moisturising cream around two to three times a day on the treated area. Use more regularly if you feel the skin dry or peeling.
• Avoid any products that contain alpha hydroxy acids, retinol, and glycolic acid for at least 7 days after treatment.
• Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, sunbeds and exposure to heat for 72 hours after treatment. These can cause sweating which can irritate the delicate skin and slow down your ability to heal quickly.

• Your practitioner will advise when further treatment appointments are required. If you are advised to attend a follow up appointment, please make every effort to attend them. You should do this even if you believe that the recovery process is going well, and you cannot see that there are any visible complications.
