Alma Opus® Plasma 

Opus Plasma Treatment is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that uses plasma energy to improve skin texture, tighten sagging skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Opus allows for customized treatments to meet the specific needs of each patient, with minimal discomfort and downtime. Opus is a safe and effective option for patients looking to improve their appearance without ablative laser treatent or without surgery.

Who is a good candidate for Opus?

Good candidates for ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment are generally healthy individuals who have:

1. Mild to moderate signs of aging: ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment is most effective for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity and visible signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles.

2. Elastic skin: The treatment works best on individuals with good skin elasticity, which allows the skin to respond better to the plasma energy.

3. Realistic expectations: While ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment can produce significant improvements in skin texture and appearance, it is not a miracle cure. 

4. No open wounds or infections: Patients should not have any open wounds or active infections in the treatment area.

5. Not pregnant or breastfeeding.

It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment is right for you.

What are the benefits of Opus?

Some of the benefits of this procedure include:

1. Non-invasive: ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment is a non-invasive procedure, meaning it does not require any surgical incisions. This makes it a safer alternative to traditional surgical facelifts.

2. Minimal downtime: Unlike surgical facelifts or ablative laser treatments, which require a significant amount of downtime for recovery, ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment has minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.

3. Improved skin texture: The plasma energy stimulates collagen production, which helps to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

4. Tightened skin: The heat from the plasma energy causes the skin to contract, which results in a tightening effect. This can help to improve the appearance of sagging skin and jowls.

5. Versatile: ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment can be used on various areas of the face and body, including the eyelids, neck, and décolletage.

6. Safe: The procedure is safe for most individuals with minimal risks or side effects.

How does Opus work?

The metal pins on the Opus Plasma tips are super-charged with high-RF voltage. The RF-charged pins react to atmospheric pressure in the air when close to the skin, creating plasma that creates microthermal zones of fractional injuries to the skin. The amount of energy an intensity can be adjusted and controlled to achieve the best outcome for the client.

What should I expect before and after my Opus treatment?

Before ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment:

1. Consultation: You will have a consultation with a qualified healthcare professional here at Alainn Medical Aesthetics to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

2. Preparation: You may need to avoid certain medications or skincare products in the days leading up to the procedure. We will give you specific instructions.

3. Numbing cream: A topical numbing cream may be applied to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.  This usually takes 30-45 minutes for best results.

​

During ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment:

1. Procedure time: The procedure typically takes 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

2. Plasma energy: A handheld device is used to deliver plasma energy to the skin. The plasma energy creates micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin.

3. Sensations: You may feel a warming or tingling sensation during the procedure.

​

After ALMA Opus Plasma Treatment:

1. Redness and swelling: The treatment area may be red and swollen immediately after the procedure. This is normal and should subside within a few hours to a few days.

2. Crusting and scabbing: Small crusts or scabs may form on the treatment area. These should not be picked or scratched, as it can lead to scarring.

3. Skincare: You will need to follow a specific skincare regimen in the days and weeks following the procedure, as directed by your healthcare provider.

4. Sun protection: It is important to protect the treated area from the sun and avoid prolonged sun exposure.

5. Results: You should start to see improvements in your skin texture and appearance within a few days to a few weeks after the procedure. The results will continue to improve over time as collagen production increases.
