How Long Does Opus Plasma Treatment Last?

Results from Opus Plasma typically last between 3 to 6 months after a full treatment series, with many patients seeing continued improvement as collagen rebuilds over time. Longevity depends on factors like your skin type, the specific skin concerns treated, and how closely you follow post-treatment care. Because Opus Plasma uses fractional plasma energy and unipolar RF energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production, results often continue to improve for weeks as your skin's natural healing process takes effect. Most patients notice smoother skin, fewer acne scars, and less skin laxity—without the downtime or damage linked to more aggressive treatments. To maintain results, maintenance treatments may be recommended every 6 to 12 months.

What Is Opus Plasma Skin Resurfacing?

Opus Plasma is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that combines fractional plasma energy with unipolar radiofrequency energy. The device uses tiny metal pins to deliver controlled micro-injuries to only a fraction of the skin’s surface. Unlike traditional laser skin resurfacing, which can be more invasive, Opus Plasma offers a gentler approach with faster recovery times. This process activates the skin’s natural healing response without requiring extensive recovery time.

Unlike traditional skin resurfacing treatments, which can require days or weeks of downtime, Opus Plasma offers a faster recovery with noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and firmness. The treatment is safe for most skin types and can be tailored to specific concerns, including acne scars, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, and signs of aging.

Benefits of Opus Plasma Skin Resurfacing

Opus Plasma skin resurfacing offers numerous benefits for individuals seeking to improve the appearance of their skin. Some of the key advantages of this treatment include:

  • Improved Skin Texture: By stimulating collagen production, Opus Plasma treatments lead to smoother, more radiant skin. This improvement in skin texture is one of the most noticeable benefits, giving your skin a refreshed and youthful appearance.
  • Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The treatment promotes collagen and elastin production, which helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This makes Opus Plasma an excellent option for those looking to combat signs of aging.
  • Enhanced Skin Tone: Opus Plasma can help to even out skin tone, reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation and acne scars. This results in a more uniform complexion and a reduction in visible skin concerns.
  • Minimal Downtime: Unlike traditional skin resurfacing treatments, Opus Plasma requires minimal downtime. Most patients can quickly return to their normal activities, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
  • Customizable: Opus Plasma treatments can be tailored to address specific skin concerns and areas of the body. This customization ensures that each patient receives a treatment plan that is best suited to their unique needs.

How Opus Plasma Works

Opus Plasma uses fractional plasma technology to stimulate collagen production and promote skin rejuvenation. The treatment works by:

  • Creating Micro-Injuries in the Skin: The Opus Plasma device emits plasma energy, which creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing process, leading to the regeneration of healthy skin cells.
  • Stimulating Collagen Production: The micro-injuries caused by the Opus Plasma device stimulate collagen production. Increased collagen levels lead to improved skin texture and tone, making the skin look firmer and more youthful.
  • Promoting Skin Tightening: Opus Plasma can help to tighten the skin, reducing the appearance of skin laxity and fine lines and wrinkles. This skin tightening effect is particularly beneficial for those looking to address sagging skin and achieve a more lifted appearance.

What Skin Concerns Can Opus Plasma Improve?

Opus Plasma effectively targets a variety of skin issues, including:

  • Uneven skin texture and tone
  • Acne scars
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Stretch marks
  • Skin laxity
  • Sun damage

The treatment promotes new collagen and elastin production, which helps improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. By stimulating the skin's natural healing process, Opus Plasma can effectively reduce the visibility of acne scars and improve skin texture. Most patients report noticeable improvements within the first few weeks after treatment as the skin heals and regenerates.

Treatment Areas and Candidates

Opus Plasma skin resurfacing can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns on the face and body. Some of the most common treatment areas include:

  • Face: Opus Plasma can be used to address fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation on the face. This makes it an excellent option for those looking to rejuvenate their facial skin.
  • Neck: The treatment can help to tighten and rejuvenate the neck, reducing the appearance of skin laxity and fine lines and wrinkles. This is ideal for individuals looking to improve the appearance of their neck area.
  • Chest: Opus Plasma can be used to address hyperpigmentation and acne scars on the chest, resulting in a more even skin tone and smoother texture.
  • Hands: The treatment can help to improve the appearance of skin texture and tone on the hands, making them look more youthful and rejuvenated.

Opus Plasma is suitable for most skin types and concerns. However, it is essential to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine if Opus Plasma is right for you. A professional assessment will ensure that the treatment is tailored to your specific skin needs and goals.

How Many Treatments Will You Need?

While some patients see visible results after just one session, most require a series of treatments for optimal results. A typical treatment plan includes 2 to 3 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart.

Maintenance treatments are recommended every 6 to 12 months to keep skin looking firm and radiant. During your initial consultation, your provider will assess your skin type and concerns to develop a custom treatment plan.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Before your session, a topical anesthetic or numbing cream will be applied to ensure comfort. Once the skin is sufficiently numb, the Opus Plasma device is moved across the treatment area with mild pressure. The process takes about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.

The device creates controlled micro-injuries using fractional plasma energy, which triggers the body's natural healing process without affecting the deeper layers of skin. This makes it safer and more efficient than more aggressive treatments.

Aftercare, Recovery, and Minimal Downtime

One of the biggest advantages of Opus Plasma is minimal downtime. Most patients experience mild redness and swelling that subsides within 24 to 48 hours. It's important to follow detailed aftercare instructions, including avoiding direct sunlight and using gentle skincare products.

You may be advised to avoid mineral makeup for a few days post-treatment. Your provider will give specific guidance based on your skin type and how your skin responds. Following aftercare closely will support faster healing and better long-term results.

How to Maintain Youthful-Looking Skin

To extend the benefits of your treatment, follow a long-term skincare plan that includes maintenance treatments, sun protection, and nourishing products that support collagen production. Promoting healthy collagen and elastin levels helps keep the skin looking firm, radiant, and smooth.

Many patients choose to repeat the procedure once or twice a year as part of their routine skincare regimen. Staying consistent with aftercare and scheduling regular evaluations ensures your skin continues to improve over time.
