Our treatment- Alma Lasers' Opus Plasma. What is it? How does it work?

The Opus Plasma combines radiofrequency technology with micro plasma technology to achieve unparalleled improvements to the appearance of skin. Less invasive than ablative lasers, Opus Plasma is designed to precisely penetrate the skin to reach the deeper layers and promote healing from within. Designed for precision, the Opus Plasma device creates microchannels in the skin, using plasma energy. In addition, high frequency unipolar radiofrequency energy heats the dermis, penetrating to the deepest layers of skin, to promote healing at a cellular level and achieve outstanding results with minimal inflammation, pain, and downtime.

An Opus Plasma treatment only takes 15 to 30 minutes depending on the area of treatment, but you should plan on being at the practice for 1 hour or more for your appointment. Before the procedure, your technician will apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area. This will need to sit for 20-30 minutes before the procedure begins to ensure your comfort.

During the treatment, your technician will place the Opus Plasma device near your skin, causing the tip of the device to generate plasma energy from the atmosphere. This energy then works to create microscopic channels in the skin. These channels penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating your body’s natural healing process, which results in brighter, tighter, fresher looking skin.

After treatment, you can expect some redness and swelling in the treatment area. This may last 2-3 days but will fade quickly as your body starts to heal. You can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.

Our provider recommends avoiding excessive sun exposure after the Opus Plasma treatment and will provide detailed instructions on post-treatment care to help you achieve your best results.

When Will I See Results?

Most patients notice an immediate improvement in their skin’s tone and texture after treatment, but you will require several weeks to fully recover and start to see final results.

Dr. Jackson recommends at least three treatments, spaced one month apart, for optimal results. To maintain your glow, he recommends continued maintenance sessions every six to twelve months after your initial series of treatments.
