J-plasma is a cold helium plasma device created by the company Bovie. It is purported to be helpful for skin resurfacing and tightening, but there is not enough data out yet to confirm the safety or efficacy of this treatment. Fibroblast is a non-medical device which also uses plasma but is much smaller and less powerful. Again, not well established for safety, efficacy, or how long the results will last. I do not believe the fibroblast pen is FDA approved for use within the USA. Warm regards.
there is nothing the same as J plasma, and as one of the few providers with the longest experience, this treatment has very long downtime for the chance of the best outcomes. There are very select people who are candidates fo before choosing to do this ensure you 1) hve an expert performing this and 2) are the right candidate. Best, Dr. Emer.

J-Plasma / Renuvion is a fantastic tool for skin resurfacing, but does have some downtime. You can expect to stay out of the public for 10-14 days while your skin heals (there will be oozing for the first couple of days). Your skin will be red and sensitive for the next few weeks, with mild r...
So, just to clarify - does the skin treated by the J plasma have a lighter color and the untreated skin your prior normal color? We can see this after full field resurfacing with CO2 lasers and J plasma and is called 'porcelain skin changes'. This is hard to treat, but as Dr. Emerick...
Cool Helium Plasma or J-Plasma is a cutting edge technology that plastic surgeons are now using to resurface facial skin with amazing results. The downtime is pretty significant, similar to having surgery, I tell my patients to plan on being off of work for two weeks and then...
