Terminology:
Jet Plasma = Cold Plasma = Ozone Plasma
Hot Plasma = Thermal Plasma
The latest buzzword in skin rejuvenation technology, Plasma is making waves as an innovative anti-aging technology to repair, regenerate and tighten skin.
Hot plasma is an ionized gas with energy that is used to stimulate the production of collagen and fibroblasts, which are responsible for maintaining the structural integrity of connective tissues within the body. Fibroblasting is synonyms with a hot plasma treatment.
Cold plasma is revered for its unique anti-bacterial effects in addition to visibly improving skin conditions and signs of aging. According to the latest cell biology research conducted by Munich University, cold plasma is fatal to bacteria while providing beneficial regenerative effects to human cells. At the surface level, anti-microbial cold plasma is able to break bacterial molecular structures, killing germs responsible for acne, eczema, rosacea and other skin problems.
Understanding the distinction between collagen stimulation through controlled injuries (hot plasma; fibroblasting treatment) and collagen production through surface treatments (cold plasma) is crucial in selecting the most suitable plasma treatment approach. Whether opting for the targeted precision of traditional fibroblasting or the subtle rejuvenation of cold plasma, individuals can now make informed choices to support their skincare journey.
FIBROBLASTING PLASMA
The fibroblasting device will produce hot plasma.
Fibroblasting treatments are a soft surgery method for skin resurfacing and treating aged skin, an alternative to more invasive eyelid reconstruction. While results are measurable, ablative procedures are typically painful and require more downtime, with visible initial skin markings that scab and fall away within a few days. For this procedure, plasma energy is generated between the device tip and the skin, creating a small plasma arc that zaps a tiny section on the skin surface. The skin fibers contract, tighten and shorten, effectively removing excess skin and resurfacing aged or problem areas without the cutting or stitching required in a traditional surgery.
Benefits:
Visible skin tightening
Reduction of pigmentation
Reduction of wrinkles
Reduction of scarring
Removal of skin tags and warts
COLD PLASMA
Cold jet plasma treatments are the emerging trend for non-invasive and painless plasma-based skin rejuvenation. Aside from reducing the risk of side effects and downtime associated with ablative treatments, non-ablative plasma treatments use controlled plasma-containing energy to targeted skin areas without damaging it.
In addition to its skin-tightening properties, cold jet plasma treatments destroy surface bacteria and induce an anti-inflammatory response. This is particularly useful if you suffer from skin conditions such as eczema or rosacea. generated energy, or activated ionized gas, is emitted to the dermis skin layer in micro-pulses (high velocity Jet stream), triggering the body’s wound-healing response to promote new collagen growth; cold plasma treatments work gently on the skin's surface, promoting collagen without causing excessive trauma. While the results may require multiple sessions to achieve noticeable improvement, the non-invasive nature of cold plasma appeals to individuals seeking gradual skin enhancements without downtime.
Benefits:
Reduced surface-level skin bacteria & harmful microbes. In a past breakthrough experiment, a mere 2-minute treatment of cold atmospheric plasma was seen to decrease 40% of the bacterial load in plasma-treated wounds, regardless of the species of bacteria. Plasma energy destroys the cell membrane, DNA and protein of pore-dwelling bacteria that causes common skin problems such as acne, allergic dermatitis, and eczema. Increased absorption of vital skincare ingredients.
Plasma technology instantly activates the epidermal cells of the skin with high amounts of energy, which increases the skin’s hydrophilicity – in other words, the ability to absorb water. This means water-soluble substances such as molecules of vitamin B, vitamin C and various peptides are more likely to be absorbed through the skin.
Visible anti-aging results
Active nitrogen and oxygen ions can easily pass through pores and enter the deeper layers of skin, catalyzing the regeneration of fibroblasts. This stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, effectively reducing fine lines and wrinkles caused by photo-damage and aging. Additionally, plasma technology boosts cell turnover to strengthen skin elasticity, and to improve uneven skin tones and pigmentation.
The best thing about non-ablative cold plasma technology is that it benefits every skin type and condition. The innovative treatment can be done safely, comfortably and painlessly in the comforts of home, without any downtime required.
JET PLASMA is another word for Cold Plasma
Jet plasma is cold plasma.
Jet plasma coverts the main gases in the air (Oxygen & Nitrogen = Ozone) to non-thermal plasma at temperatures of 35-40 °C. The non-thermal plasma works by using CAP (Cooler Atmospheric Plasma) to send volts of plasma through the outermost layer of skin. Once the plasma reaches the underlying skin layers, it prompts collagen generation.
The technology can be referred to as ozone plasma, jet plasma and cold plasma.
The Science Behind Hot and Cold Plasma
Temperature-
Hot Plasma: This type of plasma is in thermal equilibrium, meaning that the ions, electrons, and neutral particles all have similar temperatures, typically ranging from thousands to millions of degrees Celsius. Examples include the plasma found in stars and arc welding.
Cold Plasma: Also known as non-thermal plasma, cold plasma has a much lower temperature, often room temperature. In this case, the electrons can be much hotter than the ions and neutrals. This type of plasma is often generated at atmospheric pressure and is used in various applications like surface treatment and medical therapies.
Ionization Levels-
Hot Plasma: Highly ionized, with a significant proportion of the gas being in the plasma state. The high temperature ensures that most atoms are ionized.
Cold Plasma: Typically has lower ionization levels, with only a small fraction of the gas molecules ionized. The overall energy is less than that required to ionize a large number of atoms. Cold plasma's electrons are selectively energized, typically by a strong electric field* causing electrical breakdown of the gas. The electrons have low mass so they can rapidly build up their energy, the ions are much more massive and collide more frequently with any neutral ions in the gas, so the electrons heat up rapidly even though the gas as a whole remains cold.
Applications
Hot Plasma: Used in applications requiring high energy, such as plasma arc welding, plasma cutting, and in nuclear fusion research. It's also found in natural phenomena like lightning and the sun.
Cold Plasma: Used in medical applications (like sterilization and wound healing). Its lower temperature makes it suitable for applications where heat-sensitive materials are involved.
WHAT KIND OF PLASMA DO WE RECOMMEND FOR HOME USE?
While there is a lot of complicated jargon surrounding plasma technology in cosmetic science, the results are straightforward wide-ranging. We picked cold plasma because of the following reasons:
A true game-changer for improving overall skin health
It ionizes free radicals on the skin caused by everyday pollutants such as smog and cigarette smoke. Kills harmful bacteria on the surface of the skin.
Plasma act as a door opener for your other skincare ingredients to better penetrate the skin
It can be incorporated easily and safely into your daily skincare routine at home.
If you didn’t know already, now you do – plasma is the future of skin rejuvenation, and it’s time to explore the full scope of its power.
Both hot and cold plasma technologies have their unique advantages in skin rejuvenation. While cold plasma focuses on antibacterial properties, circulation enhancement, and collagen stimulation, hot plasma excels in tissue tightening, sublimation, and long-lasting results. We chose cold plasma for being excessively gentle for a collagen induction treatment. No pain and no down time is a winning combo.
