PLA DUO Plasma Skin Rejuvenation

Who Is This Treatment Suitable For?

PLA DUO is suitable for adults looking to improve overall skin quality, reduce signs of ageing or manage certain skin conditions without invasive procedures. Treatment plans are individually designed following a thorough consultation.

This treatment may be suitable for people who have:

• Fine lines and wrinkles.
• Loss of skin firmness or elasticity.
• Uneven skin tone or texture.
• Enlarged pores.
• Rosacea or facial redness.
• Melasma or pigmentation concerns.
• Acne or acne scarring.
• Keratosis pilaris.
• Psoriasis or inflammatory skin conditions.
• Surgical or traumatic scars.
• Stretch marks.

Shikha personally assesses your skin, medical history and treatment goals to determine whether PLA DUO is the most appropriate option for you.

Every PLA DUO appointment begins with a detailed consultation to understand your concerns and create a personalised treatment plan. Depending on your skin’s needs, treatment may involve Nitrogen plasma, Argon plasma or a carefully selected combination of both.

During your appointment:

• Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and assessed.
• Treatment areas are identified and mapped.
• The appropriate plasma settings are selected based on your concerns.
• The specialised PLA DUO handpiece is passed over the treatment area using precise, controlled movements.
• Treatment typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the size of the area.

PLA DUO can be used for facial rejuvenation, body rejuvenation, scar revision and the treatment of various inflammatory skin conditions, making it one of the most versatile technologies available.

Many clients notice improvements in skin texture, brightness and overall skin quality within the first few weeks as the skin begins its natural regeneration process.

Because collagen production continues after treatment, improvements often develop gradually over several months.

The number of treatments required varies depending on your concerns. While some clients benefit from a single session, a course of three treatments is often recommended for optimal results, particularly for acne, scarring and skin rejuvenation.

Results can be long-lasting when supported by a good skincare routine and appropriate maintenance treatments.

PLA DUO is designed to deliver effective skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. Most clients return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment.

Common temporary side effects may include:

• Mild redness.
• Warmth similar to light sun exposure.
• Slight sensitivity.
• Temporary dryness or tightness.

These effects usually settle within a few days.

As with any advanced aesthetic treatment, individual healing times vary, and Shikha will explain any expected recovery based on your personalised treatment plan.

Following treatment, you’ll receive personalised aftercare advice to support healing and maximise your results.

You may be advised to:

• Keep the skin clean and well hydrated.
• Avoid excessive heat, saunas and strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours.
• Wear SPF daily to protect treated skin.
• Avoid harsh skincare products until the skin has fully settled.

Depending on your treatment plan, follow-up appointments may be arranged to monitor progress and schedule additional sessions if required.

PLA DUO works well alongside several other skin rejuvenation treatments depending on your goals.

Complementary treatments may include:

• Anti-Wrinkle Injections for expression lines.
• Dermal Fillers to restore lost facial volume.
• Profhilo for deep skin hydration.
• Polynucleotide Treatments to stimulate skin repair.
• Microneedling for collagen induction and scar improvement.
• Medical-grade skincare to maintain long-term results.

During your consultation, Shikha will recommend the most suitable combination to achieve the best outcome for your skin.

What makes PLA DUO different from other skin rejuvenation treatments?

PLA DUO combines both Nitrogen plasma and Argon plasma within one device, allowing treatments to target skin regeneration, collagen production, inflammation and bacteria depending on your individual needs.

 

Is PLA DUO painful?

Most clients find treatment very comfortable. The procedure is generally well tolerated and does not usually require anaesthetic.

 

Is there any downtime?

Downtime is minimal. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur immediately after treatment, but most people can return to their normal routine shortly afterwards.

 

How many treatments will I need?

This depends on your skin concerns. Some clients achieve excellent results from a single treatment, while others benefit from a course of three sessions for more significant improvement.

 

Can PLA DUO help with acne and acne scars?

Yes. PLA DUO can be used to help reduce acne-causing bacteria, calm inflammation and support skin regeneration, making it suitable for active acne as well as improving the appearance of acne scars.

 

Can PLA DUO treat scars?

Yes. Treatment can be tailored to improve the appearance of surgical scars, burn scars, traumatic scars, Caesarean scars and stretch marks by encouraging healthy collagen remodelling.
