An innovative, first-of-its-kind radiofrequency skin resurfacing technology improves the skin’s tone and texture with treatments that take 20 to 35 minutes to perform following a 30-minute numbing process.
Opus Plasma represents the next generation of fractional skin resurfacing treatments for women and men of most skin types who want to minimize wrinkles, lessen scarring, and reverse damage caused by the sun and the natural aging process. The procedure’s versatility enables us to adjust treatment intensity from light to aggressive, depending on the patient’s skin condition, goals, and downtime considerations.
The innovative platform combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with plasma created when the RF energy emitted from the tips of metal pins react to atmospheric pressure.
Opus Plasma removes microscopic sections of the skin in the targeted area. Fractional skin resurfacing creates thousands of these micro-injuries to the skin while leaving the surrounding tissue undamaged. The body’s natural healing response repairs these controlled wounds by producing new collagen and elastin, the building blocks of smooth, youthful-looking skin. Improvements are visible almost immediately. Healing and the rejuvenating process will continue months after your procedure.
Unlike traditional laser-based skin resurfacing technologies, however, Opus Plasma precisely controls the time that radiofrequency energy makes contact with the skin. This minimizes unwanted inflammation that typically leads to longer recovery times inherent in other resurfacing techniques.
What is Plasma?
When we talk about Opus plasma, we are not referring to blood plasma or platelet rich plasma (PRP). We are instead referring to a type of energy.
Plasma is the fourth state of matter (along with solid, liquid, and gas). Just as solid can become liquid and liquid can become gas, gas can become plasma when the atoms in a gas become ionized.
Opus Plasma Technology
Opus is a Hybrid RF + Plasma device. It uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to penetrate into the dermal layer, stimulating fibroblast activity. Fibroblasts control the formation of new collagen and elastin in the skin, creating a tightening and thickening effect.
At the same time, the specialized tip on the Opus causes the RF energy to react with Nitrogen in the air, creating a plasma spark. The fractionated plasma spark creates a minuscule, controlled injury on the skin and forces a wound healing response. The result is smoothing and brightening of the epidermal layer of skin.

Who Can Benefit From Opus Plasma Treatments?
Because we can adjust the treatment’s intensity, virtually anyone with concerns about their skin’s appearance is a good candidate for an Opus Plasma procedure. It produces results similar to an aggressive CO2 laser or a gentle laser peel, depending on the setting used. The difference with Opus Plasma is that the treatment and recovery time is minimal compared to other laser treatments.
The benefits of an Opus Plasma treatment include:
-
Reduced appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and loose and saggy skin
-
Overall skin rejuvenation
-
Minimized acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks
Popular treatment areas include the face, neck, abdomen, and arms.
What Happens During an Opus Plasma Treatment?
We begin by applying a topical anesthetic to the target area to minimize discomfort during the session. Once the skin is numb, the specialist glides the Opus Plasma handpiece across the skin. We can treat the entire face in 20 to 35 minutes. Once the procedure is finished, we apply a protective balm. Patients usually notice some slight redness and swelling after the treatment, but it resolves on its own within 24 to 48 hours in most cases. More aggressive treatment settings can extend the downtime.
Even though most patients see results after a single treatment, we recommend 2 to 3 treatment sessions for optimal results.

CBD+ After Care Products
Included with Opus Plasma Treatments
From Alma, the company that has dedicated over 20 years of research to the science of anti-aging, CBD+ is the first professional skincare solution that combines the scientific benefits of full spectrum CBD, shown to visibly reduce redness and calm the appearance of stressed skin, with clinically proven cosmetic ingredients to visibly rebalance the skin back to a natural, healthy state.
Why CBD?
CBD has been found to have significant soothing properties. Its substantial skin-calming and skin-normalizing effects can help minimize issues related to skin sensitivity post-treatment including redness and reactivity. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties help to speed up recovery and healing time as well as prevent damage to surrounding tissue.
Alma’s CBD+ Skin Care products have been designed to work synergistically with their skin resurfacing protocol of the Opus and are included as part of our treatment options.
CBD for Wrinkles and Anti-Aging
Because it comes from a plant, it’s not surprising that CBD also has antioxidant properties. The antioxidants in CBD are one way its topical use helps lessen the visible signs of aging as well as vascular changes from years of sun damage. By counteracting free-radical damage and reducing the look of inflammation, CBD visibly diminishes issues like wrinkles, skin dullness, and ruddy skin tone.
CBD for Post-Procedure Treatment & Sensitive Skin
Another benefit of CBD is that it has been found to have significant soothing properties. Its substantial skin-calming and skin-normalizing effects can help minimize issues related to skin sensitivity post-treatment including redness and reactivity. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties help to speed up recovery and healing time as well as prevent damage to surrounding tissue.
