Plexr Plus
Plexr Plus (or plasma soft surgery) is a non-surgical treatment used to lift the eye lids (blepharoplasty), and target under eye bags, crepey skin, smokers lines, crows feet, and jowls by tightening the skin and treating skin laxity. It is also used to improve scars, treat moles, skin tags and other unwanted superficial skin lesions. Unlike surgical treatments for these problems, Plexr Plus does not require general anesthetic and recovery time is much shorter.
The treatment uses plasma – the fourth state of matter after solid, liquid and gas – and is performed using wireless handheld devices which are manufactured in Italy. The Plexr Plus Soft Surgery device has been used and licenced in several countries worldwide over the last 10 years and is now the first fully licensed plasma technology to be introduced and approved by Health Canada.

How does it work?
The Plexr Plus device creates plasma by ionizing gas particles between its precise 0.5mm-wide probe and the skin, creating an electrical arc. The technology is very precise so specific areas like the eyelids can be treated without touching or harming the skin.
This plasma is described as a tiny “lightning bolt”. When lightning hits the ground it vaporizes everything and leaves only black carbon. On the skin, plasma vaporizes cells and all that is left is carbon in the form of a crust.” This crust heals, leaving the treated skin behind. As well as vaporizing – or “sublimating” – unwanted skin, it has the triple effect of causing the remaining tissues to tighten and boosting collagen production.
What to expect
Depending on the area being treated you will either be given a local anesthetic or topical anesthetic cream which takes around 45 minutes to take effect. Non-surgical eyelid lifts (blepharoplasty) will be done with the anesthetic cream while moles and keloid scars may require a local anesthetic injection.
Treatment can usually be done in 10 to 40 minutes, depending on the area. Clients have reported some procedures using Plexr plasma treatment as being painless with the anesthetic cream, but treatment of the eye area may still have a level of discomfort and it may feel prickly.
You may feel a sensation like a sunburn for approximately 24 hours after treatment but should otherwise be fine to drive and return to work.
A medicinal cream is available at the spa and strongly recommended to protect the treated area which should be used for around a week post procedure. You will also need to avoid using exfoliating washes and cleanses until it is completely healed – usually around seven days.
Plexr Shower
The NEW PLEXR SHOWER is the next generation of non-invasive plasma facial & cosmetic treatments. PLEXR PLASMA stimulates fibroblasts to generate COLLAGEN which leads to skin tightening and lifting. This is perfect for those who require a more effective option than a microdermabrasion but want to avoid the intensity of a microneedling treatment.
How does it work?
The Plexr Shower works as a facial rejuvenation treatment.
While the regular PLEXR tip creates a big bolt of plasma that focuses the energy on one spot directly under the tip, the PLEXR SHOWER TRIANGLE TIP spreads the energy along it's length creating many nano plasma bolts. The resultant micro- channels provide the perfect environment for the penetration of REJUVENATING EXOSOMES (PURASOMES), BOTOX or PRP.
