Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Opus Plasma RF Microneedling.

Opus Plasma uses fractional plasma energy delivered via microneedling to create controlled micro-injuries, triggering a robust healing response. This stimulates collagen and elastin production while resurfacing the epidermis, improving texture, tightness, and overall skin tone over weeks to months.

Most patients notice immediate smoothing and glow, with progressive improvement in fine lines, scars, pore size, and firmness. Optimal results typically appear after a series of two to four treatments spaced months apart, with improvement continuing for several months.

Discomfort is generally mild; we apply topical numbing before treatment and can adjust settings for comfort. Some patients experience heat or pressure sensations during the procedure. Post-treatment soreness is similar to a sunburn and resolves within a few days.

Treatment plans are customized; many patients benefit from two to four sessions for marked improvement. The exact number depends on skin condition, concerns, and goals; your provider will recommend an individualized schedule during consultation.

Expect redness, swelling, and temporary pinpoint crusting for two to seven days, varying by intensity. Most people return to light activities quickly; full healing and peak collagen remodeling occur over weeks to months with proper aftercare.

Side effects are usually transient: redness, swelling, crusting, pigmentation changes, or infection in rare cases. We screen for contraindications and provide pre/post-care instructions to minimize risks; contact the clinic if unusual pain, prolonged redness, or signs of infection occur.
