just because someone is at risk for keloids doesnt mean they cant do. lasers or plasma pen. I suggest you pretreat your skin with cosmelan, growth factors, and vivatia, and see an expert to determine what is the best long term plan with lasers and localized small areas of plasma pen to start.

Dear Niki, Thank you for your inquiry. Fibroblast Plasma Pen is definitely not an option for you. You might want to seek the advice of a Board Certified Dermatologist in your area regarding other treatment option suitable for you.Best of luck !

No. Plasma pen is contraindicated for individuals prone to keloid scarring. You don't mention what you are hoping to correct? There are many excellent devices/treatments available for just about every skin concern out there.

Do not pick!!! Yes, scabs are normal and expected because small areas of skin have been burned. You should not wear any makeup while scabs are present. Once the scabs have peeled off on their own, you may then use makeup to cover up the redness. Doing the plasma pen just 11 days before your...
