What is plasma fibroblast?

Plasma fibroblast is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment. A fine device creates a tiny plasma arc just above the skin, forming a pattern of small dots. Each dot tightens the skin straight away and kick-starts your body’s own collagen and elastin production, so the skin keeps firming over the following weeks.

It is a natural option that works with your own skin, with minimal downtime and at a fraction of the cost of surgery. We treat the face, neck and body, from hooded eyelids, crow’s feet and nasolabial folds to loose skin on the neck, arms and stomach.

Plasma fibroblast is a great fit if you

  • have hooded or crepey eyelids, or lines around the eyes
  • want to soften nasolabial folds, smoker’s lines or jowls
  • have loose or crepey skin on the neck, décolletage, arms or stomach
  • would like a natural alternative to surgery or regular injectables

Please talk to us first if you

  • are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • have a history of keloid scarring
  • have a pacemaker or metal implants near the area
  • have an active skin infection, cold sore or open wound in the area
  • have a fresh tan, or are taking medication that makes your skin sensitive

We check your skin and health history at a free consultation before any treatment.

How your appointment works

Your treatment starts with a free consultation, where we check your skin and plan the areas to treat.

Free consultation

We look at your skin, talk about the areas that bother you and recommend how many sessions you are likely to need.

LED pre-treatment

Every plasma treatment includes a free Dermalux LED session to prepare and calm the skin.

Plasma treatment

We create a precise pattern of tiny dots across the area. The skin tightens straight away as each dot forms.

Healing and results

The small dots form tiny crusts that fall away in about a week, and the skin keeps tightening for up to 90 days.

  • First few hours: a mild sunburn-like feeling, which usually settles in 2–3 hours but can last up to 2 days.
  • Days 1–2: some swelling, especially around the eyes. This settles within a day or two.
  • Days 5–7: the tiny carbon crusts fall away on their own (occasionally up to 14 days). Mineral make-up can cover them.
  • Up to 90 days: new collagen keeps forming, so your skin continues to tighten. Many clients need 1–3 sessions, depending on the area.

Before and after your treatment

Following these steps helps your skin heal well and gives you the best result. Read the full plasma care instructions.

Before your treatment

  • No waxing, plucking, depilatory creams or electrolysis on the area for 2 weeks before
  • Stop prescription-strength exfoliants (Retin-A, AHAs) 2 weeks before
  • Avoid tanning, sunbeds and self-tan for 4 weeks before
  • Use a zinc-based SPF 30+ sunscreen on the area every day
  • Skin types 3 and above start a pigment inhibitor 2–4 weeks before (we will advise you)

After your treatment

  • Keep the area dry for 48 hours and apply nothing except Dermaheal when needed
  • Don’t ice or cold-compress the area
  • Avoid sun on the area for the first 48 hours, then use zinc sunscreen daily
  • Let the crusts fall off on their own; don’t pick or scrub
  • Avoid scented products, strong exfoliants and loofahs until healed

Plasma Fibroblast FAQs

How much does plasma fibroblast cost?

Prices depend on the area. Small areas such as a lip flip or the lower lip start at $200, a cat eye lift is $300, upper and lower eyelids are $400, nasolabial folds are $500 and a full face lift is $1,300. Consultations are free, and every treatment includes a free LED session.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients need 1 to 3 sessions, depending on the area and how much tightening you would like. We recommend a plan at your free consultation.

When will I see results?

You will see some tightening straight away. Your full result takes about 90 days, as your skin builds new collagen and goes through its natural renewal cycle.

How long do the results last?

Results are long-lasting. Your skin will keep ageing naturally, so some clients choose an occasional touch-up over the years to keep their skin firm and lifted.

How much downtime is there?

Most people need about 2 to 4 days of social downtime. Swelling, especially around the eyes, settles in 1 to 2 days, and the small carbon dots fall away in about 5 to 7 days. You can go back to work straight away if you like, and the dots can be covered with mineral make-up.

Does it hurt?

You will feel warmth and a quick prickling sensation as each dot is made. Afterwards the area can feel like a mild sunburn for a few hours. We will talk you through comfort options at your consultation.

Plasma fibroblast or HIFU: which is better for me?

Both tighten the skin by stimulating collagen. Plasma fibroblast works on the surface and is great for targeted areas like hooded eyelids, fine lines and crepey skin, with a few days of downtime. HIFU Ultraformer MPT works deeper with no downtime and suits overall lifting of the face and neck. See our HIFU vs Plasma Fibroblast guide, or ask us at your consultation.

Can plasma fibroblast replace anti-wrinkle injections or fillers?

It works differently. Rather than relaxing muscles or adding volume, plasma fibroblast tightens the skin and boosts your own collagen. Many clients find it a natural, longer-lasting alternative for skin laxity and fine lines, and we can tell you at your consultation whether it suits your goals.

How do I prepare for my treatment?

  • No waxing, plucking or depilatory creams on the area for 2 weeks before
  • Stop Retin-A and AHA products 2 weeks before
  • Avoid tanning for 4 weeks before
  • Skin types 3 and above may need a pigment inhibitor 2–4 weeks before

Who should not have plasma fibroblast?

Please talk to us before booking if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of keloid scarring, have a pacemaker or metal implants near the treatment area, have an active skin infection or cold sore, or have a fresh tan.

From the consultation through to the treatment, Shelley was professional knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease, with a few laughs and jokes. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly and tailored my treatment to suit my facial features and my goals. My powder brows healed so naturally, I was also so impressed with the improvement with the plasma treatment. The salon is immaculate and the whole team is friendly and welcoming. If you’re looking for someone with years of experience and generally cares about achieving the best result, I highly recommend Shelley and her team at CTM. Even my mum goes to see her for her brows and Skin treatments.
