The Plasma Eye Lift is not a painful treatment though when the carbon crust is form you may feel a slight stinging sensation, but it is only temporary. Also, before the treatment a numbing cream is applied and should minimise or eliminate any discomfort during the treatment.

It is vital that you do not pick the scabs which could lead to infections or scaring, but let them fall off naturally over the following days.

Patience are advised to use a broad spectrum sun cream for up to 6 weeks following the treatment and to avoid direct sunlight or sunbeds during healing.
