J Plasma for Facial Tightening and Wrinkles

$5,000
I had J plasma 5 months ago to fix my saggy skin and wrinkles. I am in my 30s. I was encouraged by all the pictures I'd seen of women in their 60s who had their deep wrinkles vanish after this procedure. However at 5 months out, I have wrinkles and lines I never had before. I think the procedure damaged my skin and made it worse than before.
The actual procedure was pretty painless. I was given oral sedatives and local anethesia. I could feel a hot burning sensation a few times and my doctor gave me more local anethesia in that area.I was ridiculously swollen for about 5 days. There is a ton of maintenance involved after this procedure. You need to keep your face moist with vaseline at all times for at least 2 weeks. So you always feel dirty and greasy even after a shower...that vaseline gets everywhere! You will also need to cover your face with a vinegar soaked rag for about 20 minutes 3 times a day for 2 weeks. I would always wash my face after the vinegar soaks and immediately apply the vaseline after. You also need to stay out of the sun for 2 weeks. I slept during the day while I was recovering.All of this maintenance would have been worth it to tighten my skin and get rid of my wrinkles, but I had no improvement. I look even older than before, and I am devastated.

So sorry. <3
SAme with me. Three months in and I had microneedling done on the surface. She said the skin attached to the scar tissue and that I had to keep massaging it. It does not look better. I am annoyed but what can I do?
Who was your doctor? Where did ou have it done?
She completely rectified it by using a steroid and needle to break up the scar tissue. It looks great!
Stacey-age60. I had the J-plasma treatment 12 days ago. It's the worst decision I've ever made. The after care has been extremely painful. The burning is so intense. I can just now see my features coming back, plus all my large size pores. She took a mole off the side of my nose and now my nostrils are uneven. I still can't open my mouth more than to get a straw in. I want to warn everyone I can NOT to do is. I would of been better off financially by having my husband get his blow torch and burn the skin off my face. Paid 5,500.00
Who did your treatment? Where did you have it done? How are your results now?
