The Plasma Pen device works using the fourth state of matter, plasma, and the process of sublimation to create an electrical charge. Sublimation is the transition of a substance dir​ectly from the solid state to gas, without passing the liquid phase. During this process, the plasma comes into contact with the skin’s surface, applying a direct heat, that is then transferred into the inner papillary layers of the skin, containing what is known as fibroblast cells – cells responsible for generating connective tissue, and allowing the skin to recover from injury or trauma. The heat energy emitted from the Plasma Pen, stimulates these fibroblast cells, creating contractions within the skin, forcing the skin to become tighter, and generate brand new skin cells. Essentially, by stimulating these fibroblast cells, the Plasma Pen is able to mimic, and hasten the process of cellular regeneration. The electrical impulses cause a controlled trauma on the skin’s surface,(the dots) and once the broblast cells are stimulated, they begin a process of restoring these cells. During the process by which these cells are restored, the newly formed skin is tighter, more toned, with a rejuvenated youthful look. In addition, this process of cellular regeneration, is able to stimulate the production of vital skincare compounds like collagen and elastin – helping the skin to grow softer, smoother, and blemish free with the youthful, elasticity that often disappears with age.
