HOW IS OPUS BETTER THAN TRADITIONAL LASER SKIN RESURFACING?
When it comes to repairing and renewing aging skin, laser-based technology has been the treatment of choice for decades. Traditional methods, such as CO2 and Fractional CO2 laser renew the skin but at the cost of lengthy downtime. With Opus, we have all the benefits of traditional methods with much less downtime. Clinical studies have shown that Opus Plasma required 50% less downtime! In terms of treatment time, Opus is superior because it takes 15 minutes to perform as opposed to 1 hour.
Opus Plasma removes a small fraction of the skin which stimulates the surrounding skin to repair itself using of kind Plasma technology that precisely controls the energy to the tissue contact time, minimizing unwanted inflammation that often leads to a longer recovery.
WHAT IS THE TREATMENT WITH OPUS PLASMA LIKE?
Prior to the treatment, we will discuss your skin goals and personalize your treatment plan. We then apply a topical numbing medication follow by the Opus Plasma. The Opus Plasma treatment is a quick, 15-minute treatment that involves rolling a handheld applicator to your skin creating the micro-injuries.
WHAT IS THE RECOVERY/ HEALING PROCESS FROM OPUS PLASMA?
Your recovery depends on your skin goals and settings used. When using moderate settings patients experience 24-48 hours of mild to moderate redness and swelling that won’t interfere with your daily activities.
It is Normal to have:
- Redness and a sunburn feeling for 2 hours up to 2 days
- A pale to dark brown pixel pattern and leathery feeling on days 3-5 with flaking swelling in areas treated aggressively through day 5
- Full Recovery is typically 5-7 days without Exosome treatment but much shorter with them
CAN I USE OPUS WITH DARK SKIN?
Yes!!! Opus Plasma is effective for all skin types. With darker skin, we do recommend a topical medication to prevent hyperpigmentation.
