From the Research
Efficacy of Plasma Pen Fibroblast Treatment
The efficacy of plasma pen fibroblast treatment is a topic of interest, with various studies examining its effects and potential complications.
- The treatment has been associated with several complications, including burns and chemical eye injuries, as reported in case studies 1, 2.
- However, other studies have investigated the use of plasma and fibroblasts in skin rejuvenation and wound repair, with promising results 3, 4, 5.
Complications and Safety
- A case report published in Cureus described a second-degree burn caused by a non-standard aesthetic procedure using a PlasmaPen Fibroblast 1.
- Another case report published in BMC Ophthalmology described a bilateral chemical eye injury following plasma fibroblast skin tightening treatment secondary to EMLA cream 2.
Alternative Uses of Plasma and Fibroblasts
- A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy reported the long-term clinical efficacy and safety of an autologous dermal filler based on cultured fibroblasts and plasma gel for facial wrinkles 3.
- Research published in the Journal of Biological Regulators and Homeostatic Agents evaluated the effect of platelet-rich plasma on fibroblast primary culture and found an up-regulation of genes involved in bio-revitalization 4.
- A study published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences developed an integrated preparation method for platelet-rich plasma and investigated its dose-response relationship with tissue regeneration, finding that PRP with a (2×) enrichment ratio was most effective in promoting fibroblast proliferation and skin wound healing 5.
