The Plasma Eye Lift - An Incredible Alternative to Cosmetic Surgery
|
If you're looking for a solution for sagging eye lids but aren't ready to resort to surgery, the Plasma Eye Lift in our Oxfordshire and Warwickshire clinics may be a good alternative for you. This non-invasive 'Soft Surgery' technology allows us to tighten and lift sagging skin around the eye area with great results.
We now offer the latest Nano Plasma procedure (which has overtaken Plexr) to provide non-surgical blepharoplasty for men and women, with minimal downtime. The Nano Plasma device does not enter or break the skin but actually acts just over the skin to stimulate the contraction and tightening of fibres in the skin - resulting in a skin tightening effect, reducing excess skin. The Plasma Eye Lift treatment, normally carried out over 3 - 4 sessions, every 6 - 8 weeks, allows for gradual natural-looking results and scarless correction of the upper or lower lid areas. |

what to expect during plasma treatment
Prior to treatment you will be treated with topical anaesthetic to allow sufficient time for this to take full effect. During the procedure the target area will be worked over and discomfort will be kept to a minimum. The actual procedure itself is quite quick (around half an hour for the upper or lower blepharoplasty), though we will always take sufficient time as necessary to tailor treatment to you and ensure your comfort and safety. Immediately after the procedure the treated skin will have dark/black dots over it and the area will be protected with medicated cover-up.
how safe is plasma treatment?
Nano Plasma / Plexr is an incredibly safe procedure which does not involve injecting or cutting the skin. It is suitable for all skin types, so long as all aftercare instructions are carefully followed to avoid risk of delayed healing, infection, pigmentation, or scarring.
Does plasma treatment hurt?
We numb the area to be treated with strong topical anaesthetic cream, and in some cases if appropriate, a dental block may be used, prior to procedure. The anaesthetic ensures that any discomfort is kept to a minimum. The plasma procedure involves short sharp zaps to the skin which may feel uncomfortable, comparable to laser treatment. Topical anaesthetic is very effective and does not involve the same risks of general anaesthetic used in surgical procedures.
are there any side effects?
With the eye area treatment the main side effect you will experience is some swelling initially after treatment and for around 2-3 days following. This is a perfectly normal response. We advise taking non-drowsy antihistamine, keeping the area cool, and staying upright as much as feasible to help any swelling to settle down. You may feel some sensitivity, tingling, or tightness in the area following treatment. The other side effect with all Plexr treatments is the natural carbon crusting and scabbing over of the treated area while the new skin underneath is developing and the area is healing - this can last for c. 7 - 20 days (varies according to individual).
is there any downtime?
Things to expect after your treatment:
- Some initial swelling - particularly for the eye area - this will usually settle over 48hrs or so
- A feeling of tightness in the area
- Sensitivity to sunlight during the healing process (up to 6 weeks) - you must protect the area with SPF 50 and stay out of the sun to prevent sun burn and pigmentation
- Darker brown carbon crusts will form over the treated area - these will naturally scab and flake off - this is an important part of your body's natural healing process and you MUST leave these alone to heal naturally. Avoid touching the area; if you must do then make sure your hands are clean. Keep the area clean and dry.
- New skin which may be pinker or more lightly coloured to form in the treated area - you MUST protect this with SPF until the skin area returns to your normal colour
do i need a consultation prior to treatment?
We will always see you for an initial consultation to assess your skin and ensure that we can offer the most appropriate treatment for you. Consultation is without obligation.
Please note, our Consultation Fee* is £70 and we take payment for this as deposit at the point of booking. The consultation fee is redeemable off treatment, should you have it (must be used within 3 months) or otherwise covers the consultation. Please refer to our Policies Page for T's & C's relating to Consultation Fee and Booking Deposit.

how many treatment sessions do i need?
This depends on what is being treated and the results you are hoping to achieve, for example, you may decide that one session has given you enough of a lifting and smoothing effect. It could be that some 2-3 treatment sessions are required in total to give the ideal result. We always want the best possible results for you and we also never want you to have more treatment than you feel you need. We will try to give you an indication of treatment required but it can be a case of waiting to assess how your skin responds.
how much does plasma treatment cost?
Prices for Plasma Treatment start from £450 per individual treatment session
are results PERMANENT?
The plasma treatment makes a fundamental change in the skin, for example, removing excess skin so this means that results are permanent (as they are in cosmetic surgery), although you will still continue to age naturally of course following treatment. Please note that as with all medical aesthetics procedures results can be subjective and can never be guaranteed.
