Opus® Plasma

Opus Plasma® takes skin resurfacing to a new level with its revolutionary microplasma technology. one that’s more advanced than traditional ablative laser skin resurfacing or fractional laser techniques. In a few short treatments, it can smooth away lines and wrinkles, improve hyperpigmentation, and tighten your skin.

Why consider the Opus Plasma® platform from manufacturer Alma?

Faces often begin to sag and wrinkle over time because they lose a small percentage of collagen each year. The protein is one of the main building blocks in the skin. Additionally, older skin contains less fat and moisture while bone and muscle density decrease, so facial structure begins to weaken. Along with normal aging, day-to-day wear and tear from external sources like UV radiation in sunlight, gravitational forces, and air pollution can’t be completely avoided. There are also lifestyle habits—like smoking, eating unhealthy foods, and neglecting skincare routines—that take a toll on the face’s appearance over time.

What Is Opus Plasma®?

In the past, lasers were one of the only tools available for creating a smoother, more even skin tone and addressing unwanted blemishes. As an advanced energy-based skin resurfacing system, Opus Plasma® uses a high-frequency unipolar radiofrequency technology, essentially combining radiofrequency with plasma. This FDA-cleared, non-laser device is the first ever skin resurfacing system that utilizes fractional plasma technology to create more youthful-looking skin and restore confidence.
Opus Plasma® features radiofrequency-charged metal pins designed to create fractional injuries on specific areas of the skin. It operates at a high frequency of more than 40 MHz Once the pins are near the skin, plasma is created in reaction to the atmospheric pressure, and this is what creates heat, stimulating regeneration of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.

Which Conditions Can Treat?

Opus Plasma® can correct hyperpigmentation, tighten and repair the skin to correct many other skin conditions, including fine lines and wrinkles, dullness, enlarged pores, broken blood vessels, skin laxity, acne scars, stretch marks, and uneven texture.

How long does it take to see results from Opus plasma?

People can usually see noticeable improvements in their skin within a few days to a few weeks after an Opus Plasma treatment. Although clients will notice visible improvements after the first session, at least two to three treatments may be needed for optimal results, as the skin looks increasingly better after each session. The results from Opus Plasma® may last up to several years, especially when clients have maintenance treatments and combine it with other skin rejuvenation options.

How is Opus different than CO2 laser?

Very similar results but far less downtime and far less risk. It is fractional plasma meaning the device ablates small channels but leaves much of the epidermis intact. Because of this you can look presentable in as little as 24 hours with makeup and far less risk of infection (no oozing, minimal crusting, no bleeding).

Are There Any Side Effects from Opus Plasma®?

Opus Plasma® creates noticeable improvements with virtually no side effects. After having this treatment, most clients experience only temporary, mild to moderate redness and swelling that feels like a sunburn, as well as tight, dry-feeling skin. These reactions will go away in just a few days.

Is plasma skin tightening worth it?

Many clients report long-lasting results, with effects lasting up to two years or more. Plasma skin resurfacing also promotes overall skin health so you can enjoy a refreshed look without invasive surgery. This type of treatment is also very customizable.

What is the downtime?

Since the Opus Plasma® device creates minimal inflammation, downtime should only be one to two days, and clients can resume their normal activities as soon as they are done. This treatment has significantly less downtime compared to conventional laser treatments, while producing the same level of improvement as more invasive, ablative lasers.
