Procedure
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:
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.
30–45 minutes
Skin laxity is treated in as little as two treatments.
A patient should immediately expect to see tighter skin over the treated area. Over several weeks to a month, new skin surfaces as the regeneration effects progress – inevitably revealing rejuvenated, firmer skin.
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.
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.
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.
