What is Plasmage?
Plasmage is a modern technique used at Maison Lutétia to help you reduce your ‘crepey’ appearance, treat skin lesions and tighten the skin.
A board-certified specialist surgeon uses a plasma pen, which is a modern technique to fix skin problems through non-invasive and non-surgical methods. The plasma pen makes dots on the skin and uses lasers at different wavelengths to tighten it. As the skin starts to heal, new fibroblasts are produced as the skin is treated, lifted, and contoured.
The process is driven by pure craftsmanship, as the plasma pen works like an artist’s brush, smoothing out the fine lines and wrinkles that have appeared on your face as a result of age or any other factor.
When should you consider a Plasmage treatment?
The plasma pen has diverse applications and can be used in multiple dermatological processes. If you are a person who has scars, fine lines, wrinkles, or xanthelasma, you should consider it right away.
What is the procedure for a Plasmage treatment?
A plasma pen creates a series of small dots which trigger a reaction, which is a healing cascade deep in the dermis. As the skin heals, it produces new fibroblast cells which tightens it lifts, provides contours and renews it.
The pen has the power to smoothen lip lines, crinkles around the eyes, and small lines on the neck.
What happens during the Plasmage treatment?
Plasmage is a non-surgical treatment alternative to help treat skin lesions and tighten the skin. The treatment is performed with dots created by the Plasmage device to sublimate (change from solid to gas) the superficial skin cells without bleeding or damage to surrounding tissue.
Intense sun exposure should be avoided one month prior and following treatment.

What can you expect from a Plasmage treatment?
Following a consultation to see if you are a suitable candidate for Plasmage, when you return for the procedure, a numbing cream is applied to minimise any discomfort. The treatment time, including applying a numbing cream, may be 20-60 minutes depending on the treatment area. About one to three treatments may be needed for each area at 6–8-week intervals.

Unusual side effects include infection, scarring or pigmentation changes. It is imperative to follow after-care advice to avoid such complications.
What are the benefits of the Plasmage treatment?
- Plasmage is an effective treatment for individuals with excess skin on the upper and lower eyelids, fine lines and photodamaged skin.
- It is a versatile treatment that can be performed on any skin type.
- This procedure does not involve cutting the skin or stitches, meaning a faster healing time.
- It is an excellent option for those who do not wish to go in for an eyelid surgery or for those who are not suitable for a surgical blepharoplasty.
What should you keep in mind during after-care for the Plasmage treatment?
Following treatment, the areas treated will be red with swelling. At the site of each dot, there will be a carbon crust that should not be touched except to camouflage for 7 days.
You will need to keep the treated area clean, dry and shielded from the sun’s harsh UV rays or any direct source of heat for a minimum of 30 days. You will be given creams to apply for the following week which can aid with the healing process.
