Are you concerned about loose, sagging skin? If so, you’re not alone. Unfortunately, many people struggle with this issue as they age. While there are several treatment options available, some can be quite expensive and invasive. But there’s good news— Fibroblast Skin Tightening offers a more affordable and non-invasive alternative for those looking to achieve firmer, younger-looking skin.
About the Procedure and Its Benefits
Fibroblast skin tightening is a new type of skin rejuvenation treatment that uses plasma energy to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein that is vital in keeping skin firm and elastic. By increasing collagen production, fibroblast skin tightening can help to improve the appearance of loose, sagging skin.
Some benefits of this treatment include:
- Immediate and long-lasting tightening of the skin
- Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
- Minimally invasive and requires no downtime
With its many benefits, it’s no wonder that fibroblast therapy is becoming increasingly popular. No matter how many sessions you need, however, you can expect to see a noticeable improvement in the appearance of your skin. So, if you’re looking for dramatic results, Fibroblast therapy is worth considering! .
How Does It Work?
Fibroblast therapy uses electrical impulses from a plasma pen to stimulate collagen production, the protein that gives skin its structure.Â
The procedure is typically done in a series of sessions, each taking about an hour. During the process, your practitioner cleans and disinfects the treatment area with an antiseptic. We then use the Fibroblast plasma pen to microneedle to create micro craters in the skin under topical anesthetic, encouraging new healthy skin growth. After the treatment, small dots may appear but will subside as your skin heals.
The treatment can target almost any body area, including the face, neck, stomach, and arms. In addition to tightening loose skin, fibroblast therapy can improve the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
Results
Fibroblast treatments are minimally invasive, and most people report only slight discomfort during the procedure. In addition, clients love Fibroblast for its natural solution to wrinkles and loose skin, allowing them to avoid ongoing filler treatments. While new wrinkles and folds may appear as you age, Fibroblast lasts longer and can be readministered in the future when needed.
While there are some physical signs of the treatment, no downtime is required, so you can immediately return to your normal activities! Complete healing occurs after about twelve weeks, with tightening and lifting appearing within 6-10 weeks.
If you are considering Fibroblast to improve your skin’s appearance and reduce the signs of aging, consult with a DS practitioner to determine if this treatment is a good option.

How effective is it?
Fibroblast skin tightening, when performed correctly, is one of the best non-surgical skin treatments in the beauty industry and cosmetology to date. However, the treatment must be performed by a certified and skilled esthetician not only to be effective but also to be safe.
Our DS board-certified nurse practitioner has the qualifications and skills to ensure a favorable Fibroblast treatment for our clients. While this treatment has longer-lasting effects than facial fillers, it will eventually require touch-ups as your skin ages.
Are there any side effects?
Unlike other treatments, the Fibroblast plasma pen emits a small pulse that leaves mico-crators in the skin. These can leave lighter or darker minuscule dots that may form a small scab that falls off after a few days.
Other side effects of Fibroblast therapy are typically mild and include redness, swelling, and hyperpigmentation at the treatment site. These side effects usually resolve within a few days with complete healing at twelve weeks— or two skin shed cycles.
