J Plasma is a minimally invasive procedure that provides an alternative to skin tightening plastic surgery procedures for the body, face, neck, and chin.
J Plasma helps the outer skin layer to peel away gently. This provides the treated location with a new, fresh layer of skin that is tighter and more youthful looking. Patients who are unhappy with the appearance of saggy skin and surplus fat deposits can take advantage of this new, innovative treatment.
The entire procedure is performed under the influence of local anesthesia. This makes J Plasma a safer and more predictable procedure. It is an effective alternative for individuals desiring skin rejuvenation for a more youthful appearance in a less invasive manner. Patients may consider combining J-Plasma with liposuction for more comprehensive body contouring outcomes.

How it Works
J-Plasma is a cutting-edge energy device which combines the distinctive characteristics of cold helium plasma with RF energy. Helium plasma concentrates RF energy for more control of tissue effect. This leads to a high level of accuracy and effectively eliminates unintended tissue trauma.
In the same way as a liquid can be turned into a gaseous state, plasma is produced by combining energy and gas. J-Plasma utilizes helium gas that passes through an energized electrode (this may also be extended for an improved cutting effect) to generate a concentrated low-current cold stream of plasma.
J-Plasma can enhance surgical as well as non-surgical procedures across a wide range of specialties and treatments due to its high precision levels and minimal thermal spread.
Why Helium?
Helium is the lightest of the stable, noble gases. It can be ionized at significantly low energy. The outcome is a single modality that can cut, coagulate and ablate with remarkable flexibility. Helium plasma is distinctive in its capacity to adapt to the dynamic needs of the surgical suite, from reduction of infection risks to cutting of thick tissue.
J Plasma Benefits
Non-Surgical
J-Plasma is a non-surgical procedure which means that it does not lead to the complications or significant bruising that are frequently associated with surgery. Furthermore, it does not cause scarring if it is not performed sub-dermally. The incision scars are minimal even if the patient receives a subdermal procedure.
Significant Results
The before-and-after images highlight substantial improvements. J-Plasma provides significant enhancements and removes signs of facial aging such as crow’s feet despite its non-surgical nature.
Short Procedure
Sometimes J-Plasma is described as “the one hour facelift.” However, the in-office procedure usually does not take over 45 minutes from start to finish.
Single Treatment Only
J-Plasma typically requires only one treatment sitting to attain desirable outcomes. This is a distinguishing factor between J-Plasma and various other competing non-surgical procedures. However, some individuals may require multiple skin treatment sessions.
