What is Plexr© Plasma?

Plexr Plasma is an innovative, non-surgical skin tightening and rejuvenation treatment designed to target specific areas of the skin with remarkable precision. Using advanced plasma technology, Plexr Plasma is a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgical procedures such as blepharoplasty. It effectively reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, offering a natural, youthful appearance without incisions or extended recovery periods. Popular for its versatility and safety, Plexr Plasma is especially effective for sensitive areas like eyelids, making it a trusted choice for those seeking non-surgical solutions in Cape Town. 

How Does Plexr Plasma Work?

Plexr Plasma works by creating a small, controlled electrical arc through ionised gas in the air. This energy is directed onto the surface of the skin using a precise handheld device, causing micro-injuries in the targeted area. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, which leads to increased collagen and elastin production. Over time, this process tightens the skin, smooths wrinkles, and enhances overall texture. 

Unlike invasive surgical procedures, Plexr Plasma does not require cuts, stitches, or general anaesthesia. It is a quick, outpatient procedure with minimal downtime, making it a highly convenient option for those looking for effective results with limited disruption to their daily lives. 

Why Choose Plexr Plasma Over Other Non-Invasive Treatments?

Plexr Plasma is a standout choice for non-invasive skin tightening, especially in delicate areas like the eyelids. Unlike basic Plasma Pen devices, the Plexr plasma pen offers superior precision and safety, making it ideal for sensitive skin. 

Compared to RF Microneedling, which targets deeper layers, Plexr focuses on surface tightening, effectively addressing fine lines and sagging. While Fibroblast Plasma and devices like Plaxpot and Jett Plasma use similar technology, Plexr Plasma is more advanced, delivering consistent, clinically validated results with minimal downtime. 

Unlike HIFU, which targets deeper tissues, Plexr excels in treating surface imperfections, offering a unique, non-surgical solution for areas like the eyelids and lips. 

At Natural Aesthetics, our expertise ensures that your Plexr treatment is precise, safe, and tailored to your needs, providing transformative, natural-looking results. 

Plexr is a revolutionary and patented innovation by Professor Giorgio Fippi from Italy. It entails a number of advanced treatments, including non-surgical Blepharoplasty using soft surgery with Plexr, which is an ideal treatment for hooded or droopy eyelids.
