How to Prepare for Portrait Plasma Skin Rejuvenation

The portrait plasma skin rejuvenation procedure uses plasma gas to smooth wrinkles, even out discoloration and reduce the appearance of acne scars without breaking the skin. Prepping for your skin rejuvenation treatment is simple because the procedure is non-invasive.

Weeks before Treatment

Since the portrait plasma skin rejuvenation procedure is non-invasive, you won't have much preparation to do. However, during consultation, your cosmetic specialist may give you a series of instructions to follow as you prepare for the treatment. These instructions typically involve putting creams and ointments on your skin in order to make it less susceptible to wrinkling.

Do not get tattoos on areas you'll have treated by skin rejuvenation in the weeks before treatment and avoid excessive exposure to the sun. If you have a sunburn on the day of treatment, you'll have to cancel and reschedule, so wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every time you step outdoors.

Morning of Treatment

Since you'll by lying back for anywhere from five to 45 minutes, you'll want to be comfortable. Wear loose, comfortable clothing to your portrait plasma skin rejuvenation treatment and refrain from wearing jewelry, watches, perfume and makeup, which can impact the treatment. Do not put creams or lotions on the areas of skin to be treated unless instructed to do so by your cosmetic specialist.

You should be able to drive yourself home safely, but because your skin will be tender and sore following treatment, you may be more comfortable having someone drive you home (if this can be arranged).
