Plasma Acne Therapy

Overview

Plasma Acne Therapy uses ionized gas (plasma) to produce a precise, controlled micro-arc of energy at the skin surface. The plasma energy has a powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect — it sterilizes P. acnes bacteria within the follicles, desiccates overactive sebaceous glands to reduce oil production, and accelerates the healing of active inflammatory lesions. It is particularly effective for superficial cystic acne and persistent pustules that resist topical treatments.

Beyond clearing active acne, plasma stimulates fibroblast activity and collagen production in the treated areas, helping to repair the skin barrier and improve shallow acne scars and post-inflammatory redness. The treatment requires no topical anesthetic for most applications and produces minimal downtime — a light area of superficial crusting heals within 3–5 days.

What It Targets

• Active inflammatory acne and breakouts
• Cystic lesions and stubborn pustules
• Acne-causing bacteria — a sterilizing, purifying effect
• Excess oil from overactive sebaceous glands
• Superficial acne scarring and post-inflammatory redness
• Compromised, inflamed skin barriers

What to Expect

After a thorough cleanse, plasma energy is applied across the areas of concern. Most patients feel a mild warmth during treatment. A light superficial crusting may appear and resolves within 3–5 days as fresh, calmer skin emerges. A short series of sessions delivers the clearest, most balanced results, and the treatment pairs well with our facials and skin boosters as part of a complete clear-skin program.
