Why Choose Plaxel Plasma for Fine Lines, Wrinkles & Skin Tightening at Skin Revision

It’s something we all notice eventually—those first fine lines around the eyes, the softening of the jawline, the crepey texture that starts to form on the neck or around the mouth. For many, these signs of ageing appear gradually and subtly, yet they can have a surprisingly big impact on how we feel about ourselves.

At Skin Revision in Beaconsfield, we offer a range of clinically backed, non-surgical treatments to help restore firmness and clarity to the skin, without harsh interventions. One of our most popular methods for addressing fine lines and skin laxity is Plaxel Plasma, a next-generation "true" plasma skin tightening device that is both effective and gentle.

In this in-depth guide, we’ll explore what "true" Plaxel Plasma is, how it works, who it’s ideal for, and what kind of results you can expect. We’ll also walk you through the treatment journey and show how it fits into a broader skin improvement plan.

What Is Plaxel Plasma?

"True" Plaxel is an advanced plasma fibroblast therapy device that uses plasma energy (not laser or heat) to create micro-trauma on the skin’s surface. This stimulates a strong regenerative response from the body, boosting collagen production, tightening elastin fibres, and ultimately improving skin firmness, tone, and texture.

Unlike traditional plasma pens which can cause carbonised burn marks or require significant downtime, "true" Plaxel Plasma uses a non-carbonising technology. This means:

  • Less trauma to the skin
  • More controlled and uniform results
  • Minimal risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation
  • Faster healing time

It is particularly effective on delicate areas of the face and neck where other treatments may be too harsh.

What Can True Plaxel Plasma Treat?

At Skin Revision, "true" Plaxel Plasma is most commonly used to target:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles (especially crow’s feet and smile lines)
  • Crepey skin around the eyes, neck, and décolletage
  • Sagging eyelids and eyebags (non-surgical blepharoplasty effect)
  • Stretch marks and scars
  • Pigmentation or uneven skin tone
  • Milia, seborrheic keratosis, dermatofibroma, moles, skin tags (where suitable)

Because the treatment is so precise, it’s ideal for addressing localised concerns—especially where injectables may not be suitable or desired.

What Does the Treatment Involve?

The procedure at Skin Revision is carried out by a qualified skin specialist following a thorough consultation. Here’s what to expect:

Step 1: Consultation and Skin Assessment

We examine your skin, concerns, and goals. This includes assessing whether Plaxel is suitable, or whether a combination of Microneedling, DMK Skin Revision, or Skin Boosters may be more effective.

Step 2: Numbing Cream Application

A topical anaesthetic is applied to reduce discomfort. You’ll wait approximately 30 minutes for this to take effect.

Step 3: Plaxel Plasma Treatment

The Plaxel device delivers short, precise pulses to targeted areas. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild heat or prickly feeling.

Step 4: Post-Treatment Cooling & Aftercare

Your skin will appear pink and may show tiny brown micro-dots or slight crusting. You’ll be given a full aftercare kit and instructions.

Downtime & Results

Plaxel has a relatively short downtime compared to older plasma devices:

  • Redness and swelling: 24–72 hours
  • Small crusts: May form and flake off in 5 –7 days
  • Full healing: Usually within 10 - 14 days

Most clients see visible tightening and textural improvement after a single session, but 2 or even 3 sessions may be advised depending on the area and concern.

Results typically improve over 4–8 weeks as collagen production increases. The results can last for up to 3 years before a further smaller “ touch up” treatment could be taken.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Plaxel Plasma is ideal for:

  • Clients seeking non-surgical lifting and skin tightening
  • Those with fine lines, laxity, or early signs of ageing
  • People with concerns around the eye area, neck, mouth, belly, or jawline
  • Anyone who prefers results without injectables or volumisers

We do not recommend it for:

  • Very dark skin types (risk of pigmentation)
  • Active acne or inflamed skin
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding clients

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Plaxel Plasma differ from microneedling or peels?

Plaxel works by delivering controlled plasma energy to tighten the skin and stimulate deep regeneration. Peels exfoliate chemically, while microneedling creates micro-injuries to trigger collagen.

Does the treatment hurt?

Most clients find it very tolerable. Numbing cream is used, and the sensation is described as warm or prickly.

Can I wear makeup afterwards?

We recommend avoiding makeup until flaking or crusts have resolved—typically 5–10 days.

Will I need time off work?

You may want to allow 3–5 days of downtime, especially for facial areas. Mild redness or small dots will be visible initially.

How long do results last?

With good skincare and occasional maintenance, results can last up to 3 years.
