Nitrogen Plasma Therapy
AgeJET is the latest advance in skin rejuvenation which gives you long lasting, natural results with a short recovery period.
AgeJET treats skin laxity, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation along with dermatological conditions such as active acne and scarring. Popular areas fore treatment are above the mouth (the bar code area) and loose, delicate skin above and below the eye. The most dramatic results are achieved when the whole face and neck are treated, giving a dynamic overall rejuvenated and refreshed complexion.
Traditionally we use methods which remove the top layer of skin to promote regeneration of new cells. Strong chemical peels and C02 Laser resurfacing treatments need careful management over a long period which is inconvenient to many patients. AgeJET uses nitrogen based plasma which creates thermal injury at a deeper level, keeping the top layer in tact. Cell proliferation is triggered and a few weeks after treatment the renewal process starts to present itself.
At Nakedhealth we have a well trained, experienced team of practitioners who work alongside Mr David Gateley. Your skin needs are as individual as you are and the treatment plan we recommend will take this and your lifestyle into account when devising recommending your skin rejuvenation journey. The team work collaboratively and you may see more than one person depending on the intensity of the treatment.
Your skin will respond more quickly if it has been well cared for in advance It is advised that you consult one of our practitioners for a suggested home care regime before embarking on an ageJET treatment.
