Korean Cold Plasma by Dr. Platon (also known as nonthermal plasma) is a state of matter created when gas is energized to the point that its atoms begin to break apart, forming a mixture of ions, electrons, and reactive particles. Despite the word “plasma,” this treatment does not involve blood or lasers. Instead, cold plasma is delivered through a handpiece that hovers above the skin, releasing charged particles that interact with the skin’s surface and underlying layers to trigger cellular repair and regeneration.
Unlike lasers or microneedling, cold plasma does not rely on heat or physical penetration to stimulate skin change. This makes it safe for all skin tones and types—even sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Cold plasma technology has also been used for years in medical settings for sterilizing surgical tools and promoting wound healing, thanks to its antibacterial and tissue-regenerating properties. In the aesthetics world, these same effects can be used to target acne, inflammation, and dull or uneven skin—gently but effectively.
Cold plasma offers a range of cosmetic and skin health benefits. Patients choose this treatment for its versatility, comfort, and no-downtime recovery. It’s especially beneficial for those with acne-prone skin or rosacea-prone skin conditions, thanks to its ability to calm inflammation and support skin barrier health. Common benefits include:
All of this happens without damaging the skin’s surface. Instead, it kickstarts your skin’s own healing processes—making it ideal for both cosmetic rejuvenation and treatment of chronic skin concerns like acne, rosacea, and inflammation.
Because it is nonthermal and noninvasive, cold plasma is safe for all skin tones and types—including patients with darker skin who may be at risk for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from more aggressive devices.

I was getting up 4 to 5 times per night to go to the bathroom. I was tired all the time. Right away I noticed better control. Now I have nights I do not get up at all.

I couldn’t do jump rope competitions. I would think about things that I couldn’t do. By my 3rd treatment I could sneeze and feel nothing. It’s freeing to do what you want to do again.

Your skin is gently cleansed and prepped for treatment.
A handheld cold plasma device is moved slowly across your skin. You may feel a cool, tingling sensation, but the treatment is entirely painless and very relaxing.
Based on your skin’s needs, we may incorporate customized add-ons such as extractions, vitamin C infusions, or targeted masks to enhance your results.
Since the skin is more receptive after treatment, soothing or hydrating serums may be applied.
There’s no downtime, so you can return to your normal routine right away. Your skin may look slightly flushed for an hour or two, but there is no peeling, sensitivity, or risk of burning.
After the treatment, your skin may feel exceptionally clean and refreshed—some patients notice a healthy glow almost immediately. Because the pores are cleared and the skin barrier is supported, many also experience a sensation of softness and smoothness that lasts for days.
Some patients see visible improvements after just one session, especially in tone, radiance, and pore appearance. For long-term results—like smoother texture, fewer breakouts, and reduced redness—a series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced one to two weeks apart is typically recommended.
