This advanced treatment might appear to be pulled from a sci-fi tale—employing plasma to revitalize your skin—but the aftercare is quite manageable.
Here’s your clear-cut guide to healing wisely and maintaining those results.
Welcome to the After-Plasmage Club
First off, what exactly did you just do to your face? Plasmage uses a device that generates a small electrical arc to treat problem areas without direct contact.
Think of it as a tiny lightning bolt that targets wrinkles, sagging, and scars without cutting the skin. Pretty cool, right? Now, let’s help you heal from that lightning strike.
Immediate Actions: The First 24 Hours
Ice Ice Baby (Well, Almost)
You might feel a bit toasty right after the procedure. Although reaching for ice might be tempting, let’s stick to a cool compress. It’s gentler and won’t shock your tender skin.
Pillow Fort
Tonight, build yourself a cozy pillow fort or at least prop your head up with an extra pillow.
Keeping your noggin elevated reduces swelling and lets you pretend you’re in a luxury spa (or a kid’s fort—it’s your call).

Week 1: The Tender Phase
Sun: Not Today
Your skin is super sensitive right now. Avoid sunbathing or any direct sunlight. Slather on a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ if you must go outside.
Maybe rock a wide-brimmed hat for extra protection—and a touch of mystery.
Treat Your Face Like Fine China
Wash your face with the gentleness you’d use on a delicate teacup. Use lukewarm water and a mild, non-irritating cleanser. Dab your face dry like you’re touching up a masterpiece.
Moisturize Like Your Life Depends On It
Hydration is your best friend. Keep your skin moist with whatever cream or ointment your practitioner suggests. This isn’t the time to skimp—go full slather mode.

Makeup Moratorium
Give your makeup a break. Let your skin breathe and heal. When you do start wearing makeup again, think light and non-comedogenic. Your pores will thank you.
Be Kind to Your Skin
Hold off reintroducing products with retinol or glycolic acid for about a month. Your skin’s still in sensitive mode. When you do bring them back into your routine, start slow.
Stay Hydrated, Stay Happy
Keep drinking water and using your moisturizer. Hydrated skin heals better and looks better. It’s a simple step with a big payoff.
