FIBROBLAST

A fibroblast is a type of cell that contributes to the formation of connective tissue, a fibrous cellular material that supports and connects other tissues or organs in the body. Fibroblasts secrete collagen proteins that help maintain the structural framework of tissues.

Fibroblast Skin a tightening is a revolutionary non-surgical technique for ageless facial rejuvenation. Loose or aging skin is an aesthetic problem faced by many. Fibroblast Tightening offers a non-invasive technique without any surgical instruments.It is based on controlled superficial trauma for immediate repair and restorations A small electrical arc of plasma is transmitted through a probe to cause a reaction on the skin’s surface and beneath. This in turn, generates renewed collagen and elastin.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Fibroblast works?

The Skin-Tightening treatment uses electric arch that is transmitted through a small probe. Tissues treated “sublimate” and we avoid spreading unwanted heat to the surrounding areas. The principle is to ionize gases in the air to create a small elec- trical arch, similar to a tiny lightning bolt, with which dermal and epidermal areas, which are affected by aesthetic problems, may be treated without spreading un- wanted heat to the surrounding areas. When the electrical arch – touches the skin surface, the heat widens the acne and is transferred into the epidermis all the way to the papillary layer which contains fibro- blast cells. The result is contraction and tightening of the skin cells. Consequently, the excess skin is reduced and the result is comparable to lifting or wrinkle reduction.

Is any special pre-treatment needed?

There is no special pre-treatment needed. It is advisable that you do not apply any cosmetic products on the treated area (especially those containing alcohol). During the consultation you should mention all recent surgical or aesthetic procedures.

Is this treatment right for me?

Is the treatment safe?

The treatment is very safe, as it is a non-surgical procedure.  Amount of possible side effects and serious complications alike. The procedure is based on the natural stimulation of skin regeneration, so the excesses which may be seen in the world of traditional surgery are not possible. The Skin-Tightening treatment takes a very short time, with stress on the aftercare, as, in case the client neglects the instructions for aftercare, the treated area may suffer from: inflammation, hyper-pigmentation, scarring …

After care

It is very important that we treat our skin well after any cosmetic treatment, so we not only get great results, but we protect ourselves from any complications. We provide 3 the products to use in the healing process. All three creams are based on mild ingredients and can also be used for other skin difficulties.
  • Do not pick carbon crust; it will fall off in a few days
  • After the treatment continue applying the aftercare cream on the treated area as long as it is sensitive or when you are exposed to sun, as it contains SPF and protects the treated area.
  • Avoid sauna, pools, solariums or any kind of exposure to activities which present risk for infection of the treated area
  • Make sure to protect the treated area from direct sun until the skin is completely regenerated (2–3 weeks).
  • Do not apply products containing alcohol or other scents.
  • Do not cover the area treat.

Are the results visible immediately after the treatment?

The results are visible immediately after the treatment, but we have to inform the client that the maximum results will be visible after 3–4 weeks when the skin enters the third phase of the healing – collagen and connective tissue growth. So, results are visible immediately, but the end results follow after 3–4 weeks after the treatments.

How long will the effect of the this treatment last?

The results of the Skin-Tightening treatment are permanent and may be visible for years (1-2 years) But we should acknowledge that the aging process is continuous and thus the skin ages every day after the procedure and this cannot be stopped. The results of this method are permanent, but when we talk about mimic facial lines (worry lines) these may comeback quickly because muscles are stronger than the skin.

How long does the treatment take?

First, the topical anaesthetic (cream) is applied, minimizing the risk of pain and numbing the treated area. The anaesthetic takes effect 40 minutes after the application. The procedure itself does not last long, 20–30 minutes depending on the area. The duration of the treatment (with anaesthetic ap- plication): 60–90 minutes.

Is the procedure painful?

Fibroblast Skin-Tightening is a non-invasive procedure with minimal level of pain. It is virtually painless, as the treated area is numbed before the treatment. After the treatment the treated area is red (7–14 days) and some patients may experience some swelling, which may last up to 3–4 days. At the site of each spot a small crust will form. They should not be touched and you should wait for 4–5 days for them to fall off naturally. During the procedure the clients may feel some discomfort, not actual pain, depending on the treated area of the face/body.

Which are the most common procedures?

• Upper eyelids
• Lower eyelids

Are there any possible side effects of the treatment?

The Skin-Tightening treatment is an exceptionally safe procedure with virtually no side effects or they occur very rarely. Possible side effects are inflammation, scarring or minor change in skin pigmentation, which is very rare. It is highly important for each client to follow the instructions for aftercare closely. Crusts which occur after the treatment are part of the treatment and will fall off after 4–5 days. Minor swelling after treating the area around the eyes is normal and will disappear after 3–5 days, depending on the client’s sensitivity.

May I use makeup after the treatment?

Do not use makeup after the treatment, as it generally is not sterile. First 5–6 days after the treatment, until the crusts fall off, use the antiseptic product and the after- care cream, applying it softly to the treated area. When the crusts fall off, you may apply some makeup if necessary, as the cream the therapist gives you contains skin powder which covers the crusts and the blush.

How many treatments are required for a perfect result?

Usually Fibroblast is 2 sessions treatment. It depends on the state of the clients’ skin and the desired degree of correction. The client is often satisfied after only one treatment, of course if,  e.g. the wrinkles are not very deep, but due to the simplicity of the procedure and the affordable price the clients opt for two or even three treat- ments to achieve a perfect result. The procedure may be repeated after the skin is fully regenerated. Generally 2 sessions are required.
