Fusion cold plasma Treatment (CAP) in Birmingham
What is Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) Therapy and How does it work?
Future -Driven Innovation, Transforming Skin, Redefining Beauty
Experience the power of next-generation skincare with our Fusion Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) technology – a gentle, non-invasive treatment that helps heal, refresh, and rejuvenate your skin. CAP is a cutting-edge, non-thermal therapy that utilises ionised gas containing reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) to stimulate skin repair and regeneration. What truly sets CAP apart is its gentle, pain-free nature. Unlike traditional treatments, CAP comes with a very low risk of side effects such as redness, swelling, or discomfort, providing a soothing and effective alternative.
Fusion Plasma’s innovative technology is compatible with a variety of Cold Plasma tips, making it a versatile addition to any healing regimen. For years, CAP has gained recognition for its natural, chemical-free approach to fighting bacteria and viruses. By harnessing the power of photons and ozone, CAP delivers powerful sterilising and ozonating effects, making it an ideal solution for a variety of skin concerns and inflammatory conditions.
How does the Treatment work?
Treatment beams gently activate RONS on the skin surface.
Creates tiny, controlled openings in the skin barrier to enhance healing and support bioactive absorption.
Kills bacteria, viruses, and fungi without damaging healthy tissue.
Encourages beneficial inflammatory signalling, then calms inflammation for optimal repair.
Stimulates blood vessel formation, collagen and elastin production for better skin structure.
Who Can Benefit
Surgical Scars (Post-Procedure Recovery):
CAP therapy accelerates the healing of surgical scars by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. It helps to minimize scarring by stimulating collagen production and improving skin elasticity, making it ideal for post-surgical recovery.
Wound Care:
CAP helps with wound healing by providing a sterile environment. Its antimicrobial properties reduce the risk of infection, and its ability to promote tissue repair speeds up the recovery process. CAP also supports blood circulation, which is vital for optimal healing.
Burns & Sun Damage:
The healing properties of CAP assist in regenerating skin cells damaged by burns and sun exposure. It promotes cell turnover, reduces inflammation, and can significantly improve the appearance and texture of burned or sun-damaged skin.
Chronic Ulcers:
CAP is clinically proven to speed up the healing of chronic ulcers by increasing oxygenation in the tissue, stimulating cellular repair, and reducing bacterial load. This results in faster and more effective healing, especially for difficult-to-heal ulcers.
Acne:
CAP’s antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties make it effective in treating acne. It works by eliminating the bacteria that cause breakouts and reducing the inflammation associated with acne lesions. CAP can also help to balance oil production, preventing future outbreaks.
Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema):
CAP helps soothe and heal the inflamed, irritated skin associated with atopic dermatitis. By reducing inflammation and promoting healing at a cellular level, CAP alleviates itching, redness, and discomfort, while restoring the skin’s protective barrier.
Rosacea:
CAP therapy calms the inflammation and redness seen in rosacea. Its ability to regenerate skin tissue helps heal the damaged skin while balancing blood flow, leading to a reduction in visible symptoms like redness and pustules.
Cold Sores:
CAP’s antiviral properties make it effective in managing cold sores. By targeting the virus at the cellular level, it accelerates healing and reduces the recurrence of outbreaks, while also soothing the affected area.
Toe Fungus:
Fungal infections, such as toe fungus, are treated effectively with CAP. The plasma’s antimicrobial properties kill the fungi, helping to clear up the infection and promote the growth of healthy tissue, preventing future fungal outbreaks.
TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal):
For individuals going through Topical Steroid Withdrawal, CAP can provide relief by reducing inflammation and promoting healing. It helps to calm the skin and restore its natural barrier, reducing symptoms like redness, flakiness, and irritation.
Eczema:
Similar to atopic dermatitis, CAP works wonders for eczema. It helps to reduce flare-ups by calming irritated skin, reducing inflammation, and accelerating the skin’s healing process. This leads to fewer flare-ups and less discomfort.
Vitiligo:
CAP helps stimulate pigment production in areas affected by vitiligo. By improving the health of skin cells and promoting regeneration, it may support the pigmentation of the skin, helping to restore its natural colour over time.
Psoriasis:
For those with psoriasis, CAP reduces the appearance of red, scaly patches by promoting healing, reducing inflammation, and stimulating the growth of healthy skin cells. It also helps to alleviate itching and discomfort.
Diabetic Foot Ulcers & Long-Standing Wounds:
CAP has been clinically proven to accelerate healing in diabetic foot ulcers and long-standing wounds. By promoting tissue regeneration and improving circulation, it shortens healing time and enhances the body’s ability to fight infection. CAP’s ability to sterilize the wound and reduce inflammation is particularly beneficial for individuals with compromised immune systems.
Cold Atmospheric Plasma offers a versatile, chemical-free solution to a variety of skin conditions by harnessing the power of natural elements like ozone and photons. It not only helps to heal wounds and reduce inflammation but also accelerates the recovery process, making it an invaluable tool for both routine skincare and the treatment of more complex conditions. Beyond skin care, CAP enhances product absorption and can even promote healthy hair growth.
How CAP Treatment Enhances Skin Resurfacing & Tightening
Lifts and Firms Sagging or Loose Skin
CAP stimulates fibroblasts—cells responsible for skin structure—triggering natural repair mechanisms. It promotes skin tightening by improving dermal density and elasticity, resulting in a firmer, more lifted appearance, especially in areas prone to sagging.
Softens Fine Lines and Deep-Set Wrinkles
The reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) in CAP help smooth skin texture by encouraging cellular turnover and collagen remodeling. Over time, this visibly reduces the depth of wrinkles and softens expression lines.
Encourages Natural Collagen and Elastin Regeneration
By triggering micro-inflammatory signals in the dermis, CAP kick-starts the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. This strengthens the skin’s internal support network, making it more resilient and youthful-looking.
Improves Overall Texture, Tone, and Elasticity
CAP enhances skin texture and tone by accelerating skin cell renewal, minimizing pore size, and evening out pigmentation. It restores elasticity, making the skin appear healthier and more radiant.
Quick Treatment Time with Little to No Recovery
Each CAP session typically lasts under 30 minutes. Since it works at room temperature without ablating the skin, there’s little to no redness, flaking, or downtime—making it perfect for lunch-break treatments.
Popular Treatment Areas for CAP Skin Rejuvenation
Lifts drooping lids and tightens under-eye bags.
Smooths crow’s feet and frown lines
Defines contours and tightens loose skin.
Softens deep folds around the mouth.
- Firms post-pregnancy or age-related skin looseness.
