Plasma Pen (Fibroblasting) Treatment in Hazlemere High Wycombe
Plasma Pen is the newest cosmetic procedure to treat wrinkles and sagging skin. At Javaani, Dr Ahmad offers this treatment as an alternative to laser, injections, or surgical therapies to tighten and improve the appearance of skin. He uses an advanced CE-approved device to perform fibroblasting.
How does Plasma Fibroblast therapy work?
As we age, the dermal layer of our skin thins, we produce less collagen, and we lose elasticity. All these factors produce sagging and wrinkling of the skin. The Plasma Pen targets various skin conditions including loss of elasticity, sagging, and wrinkles that have been traditionally treated with fillers or plastic surgery.
According to a 2019 article published in the PMFA journal, the thermal disruption, or heat damage, from plasma fibroblast therapy:
- breaks down proteins in the skin
- encourages tissue regeneration
- stimulates fibroblast activity
- causes tissue contraction (tightening)

Can fibroblast help under eye bags?
Under-eye bags are caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, aging, and lifestyle factors such as lack of sleep and poor nutrition. Plasma pen can be used in selected patients depending on age, skin tone, and severity of eye bags. It would be best to consult Dr. Ahmad about the suitability of the treatment and its expected outcome.
How long do scabs last after the plasma pen?
Scabs typically last between 5-7 days after a plasma pen treatment. As the healing process progresses, the scabs will start to flake off and the skin will begin to look smoother and more even.
How do you speed up plasma fibroblast healing?
Dr Ahmad recommends using products containing growth factors and other collagen-stimulating properties. Regular use of these products will speed up the recovery and improve the final aesthetic outcome. Make sure to get plenty of rest and sleep to allow your body to heal. Topical agents such as aloe vera gel or arnica help promote healing and reduce inflammation.
Make sure to get adequate nutrition with a balanced diet and adequate hydration.
A detailed aftercare will be discussed by Dr Ahmad to help you through the recovery phase.
How long after the plasma pen can I wash my face?
It is recommended to wait at least 24 hours after the plasma pen treatment before washing your face.
How long until I will see results?
Immediate results are visible in 5 to 7 days, and they improve over the following 6 weeks.
How soon can you wear makeup after fibroblasting?
It is recommended that you wait at least 48 hours following a fibroblast treatment before wearing any makeup. However, you may need to wait longer if you have any redness or swelling.
What are the side effects of Plasma Fibroblasting?

mild hypopigmentation (light spots)
mild hyperpigmentation (dark spots)

What should you not do after a plasma pen treatment?
After a plasma pen treatment, you should not pick or scratch at the treated area, expose it to the sun, or use any abrasive products on it. You should also not apply any makeup to the area until the swelling and redness has gone down.
Is plasma pen treatment painful?
Plasma Pen is mildly to moderately uncomfortable. Numbing cream is applied to reduce the discomfort during treatment.
What treatments complement Plasma pen treatment?
A PDRN skin booster 2 weeks after fibroblasting can significantly enhance the rejuvenating effect of fibroblasting

It depends on age, skin quality, and the indication of treatment. One treatment would be sufficient for a few and some will require 2 to 3 sessions of treatment.
