Portrait Plasma Skin Rejuvenation is among the few cosmetic treatments that have been able to meet the quality and safety standards set by the FDA. This technique was launched by Rhytec. This is why it is also referred to as Rhytec PSR. It is among many of the cosmetic treatments launched by Rhytec since 2004. The treatment is delivered via a device and is aimed at removing signs of aging like wrinkles along with eradicating acne scarring, pigmentation and sun-induced damage to the skin.
Approval Status of Portrait Plasma Skin Treatment
The FDA approval was granted in 2008. Portrait Plasma has been approved by the FDA for various cosmetic applications like reducing wrinkles, treating skin lesions and some typical skin conditions including acne control. It should be noted that apart from the FDA approval, Portrait Plasma Skin Rejuvenation has been able to gain other global approvals like approval by the TGA or the Therapeutic Goods Administration (part of the Australian Department of Health & Aging).
The FDA approval status of Plasma Skin Regeneration is mainly attuned to the overall safety it offers. This is because it uses small pulses of plasma for heating the skin rather than laser beams or ultrasound waves. The plasma is essentially an ionized form of nitrogen gas that is chemically inert and doesn’t react with the skin. The plasma heating is deep and is able to stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis that is retained for nearly a year.
