Everything You Need to Know Before Your AgeJET Treatment, Including What to Expect Before, During, and After
Nitrogen gas is converted into plasma energy. The plasma is released in quick pulses of thermal energy to achieve skin remodeling and repair. Higher levels of energy allow plasma to tighten and contour the skin while lower energy levels help to improve fine lines, wrinkles, and dark eye circles.
Age Jet helps rejuvenate skin through resurfacing and the stimulation of collagen – think of it as a safer and non-surgical alternative to a blepharoplasty or a facelift. Treatable conditions include sun damage (hyperpigmentation and wrinkles), fine lines, visible pores, active acne, and acne scars. Those who suffer from saggy or loose skin around the eye area or droopy eyelids are also good candidates for the treatment. You can expect to see tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin, with less-visible fine lines and wrinkles.
Some laser treatments are unsuitable for those with darker skin. AgeJET, however, is safe for patients for all skin tones.
- It is important to avoid excessive sun exposure and use SPF 30+ sunblock for 2 weeks prior to your treatment.

Depending on the area being treated, the condition of your skin, and the desired outcome, results continue to improve for up to 12 months. For anti-aging maintenance and prevention, most clients like to get an AgeJET treatment every 12-18 months.
