Age Jet Advanced Plasma Skin Therapy

FDA-approved skin-resurfacing procedure that treats fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, skin laxity, hands, décolletage and neck. Age Jet is also the only device that is safe to treat both the upper and lower eyelids. Age Jet is a type of plasma skin regeneration in which nitrogen gas creates a thermal injury deep in the skin. This means that the plasma preserves the outer layer of the skin until your new skin forms over the course of 10 days. Surface improvements appear soon after treatment.

Benefits of Age Jet Plasma:

  • Light to moderate downtime
  • Non-ablative
  • No scabbing or scarring
  • Treats multiple skin types
  • No eye shields required
  • Very safe and highly effective

Recovery Time & Side Effects

Approximately four to 10 days of downtime is to be expected after each treatment, but patients can resume their normal routine immediately following treatment. Patients should expect moderate to severe peeling, depending on the depth, and most report experiencing redness and tenderness to the treated area. During your consult, your provider will go into more detail regarding how they expect your skin to heal.

How Age Jet Works

Prior to treatment, a topical numbing cream can be applied to combat any discomfort, and then plasma energy is released into the skin via a handpiece connected to the Age Jet machine. Controlled pulses then penetrate deep layers of the skin tissue through this nonablative approach. The entire treatment takes no more than an hour, and within four to 10 days, the treated skin heals to reveal regenerated youthful skin.

*NUMBING ANESTHETIC CAN BE APPLIED, BUT SOME TREATMENTS DON’T REQUIRE IT, AS THE EXPERIENCE IS COMFORTABLE TO MOST PATIENTS.

1

Confirmation

The provider greets the patient and ensures all necessary forms and photos have been taken. Before proceeding, the provider reviews the procedure with the patient and answers any questions.

2

Preparation & Treatment

Pre-treatment for both upper and lower eyelid: On the day of treatment, a light layer of topical anesthetic is applied for 15 to 20 minutes and then removed, followed by the removal of corrective lenses (if any).

Upper eyelid treatment: The patient raises their eyebrows, at which point the provider covers the brow with wet gauze or Aquaphor. The provider then holds the upper lid closed by using a silicone facial spreader to grip the lid during the treatment while covering the lashes.

Lower eyelid treatment: The patient closes their eyes, and the provider has the patient use gauze to pull down on the cheek to expose and stretch the lax under the eye tissue. The leading edge of the silicone facial spreader is then placed under the lower lashes.

Discuss Post Care

Following treatment, your provider will instruct you on how to use the Topical HA Serum and Post-Treatment product that you will be given once the treatment is concluded.

Your Customized Treatment Plan

Age Jet treatments (along with mostly everything we offer at AesthetiCare) are completely customized to YOU. At your complimentary consultation, you will be able to discuss with your provider your personal goals, area(s) to be treated, skin type, skin’s thickness, sensitivity, and tolerance to possible social downtime. Just one treatment, at any energy level, will improve your skin. Below helps break down what to expect.

PRO TIP: SOCIAL DOWNTIME FOR THE FACE IS TYPICALLY LESS THAN OTHER BODY PARTS, FOR EXAMPLE THE NECK, WHICH MAY TAKE TWICE AS LONG FOR DARKENING AND SHEDDING TO RESOLVE.

Lowest Energy Treatment

Expectations

Improvement to appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, or dark circles plus increased skin permeability, which aids topical product effectiveness. Active acne-causing bacteria is mitigated. Your skin will appear refined.

Medical Downtime

None

Social Downtime

Transient redness, maybe swelling, and feeling of skin tightness/dryness may last for 1-3 days. We will discuss with you a home moisturizing regimen. After a few days, you may experience shedding of the skin.

Treatments Needed

Typically three treatments spaced about one month apart.

Numbing

Not needed

Medium Energy Treatment

Expectations

Experience noticeable improvement to signs of aging, wrinkles, lines, and age spots.

Medical Downtime

None to limited

Social Downtime

Redness, maybe swelling, and feeling of skin tightness/dryness may last for 2-5 days. We will discuss with you a home moisturizing regimen. After a few days, you may experience shedding and/or darkening of the skin.

Treatments Needed

Typically one to two treatments spaced about one month apart.

Numbing

Likely not needed, although a topical anesthetic may be applied.

High Energy Treatments

Expectations

Results comparable to ablative treatments, but with far less downtime and risk of post-treatment complications. Improvements to your overall skin health and appearance will be significant and will include contouring and tightening.

Medical Downtime

None to limited

Social Downtime

Redness, maybe swelling, and feeling of skin tightness/dryness may last for 4-10 days. We will discuss with you a home moisturizing regimen. After a few days, you’ll experience shedding and/or darkening of the skin. Around day six, patients feel confident with makeup to participate in Zoom meetings.

Treatments Needed

Typically one treatment.

Numbing

Likely not needed, although a topical anesthetic may be applied.

Krissy is thorough and easy to talk to. She is confident in her skills and put me at ease.

Jessica is always keeping me up to date on new and exciting treatments. Although I have done multiple Intracel treatments in the past, this time she encouraged me to add on PRP. I highly recommend. Healing time was so fast!

Jessica did a great job always checking with me on how I was feeling. She was always concerned about how I was doing and doing the best job she could!

Jennifer explained everything in details and was very diligent in making sure that the procedure and follow up went well

I was given the proper guidance and steps to take to make my skin better. I truly love the honesty, care, and time taken to help find solutions to make my skin better. The before and after pictures truly show a difference on how well the procedure works. And I’m still noticing differences as my skin continues to heal.
