NeoGen is suitable for individuals looking to improve the overall quality and appearance of their skin. Ideal candidates include those with concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, uneven skin tone, acne scars, and mild to moderate skin laxity. NeoGen is particularly beneficial for individuals who want significant skin rejuvenation without undergoing invasive procedures or extended downtime.

The treatment is safe for all skin types and tones, making it an excellent option for a wide range of patients. However, individuals with active skin infections, severe acne, or those who are pregnant or nursing should avoid this treatment. A detailed consultation will help determine if NeoGen is the right choice for your specific needs, ensuring the treatment is tailored to your skin type and concerns.

The NeoGen treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your skin and determine the appropriate treatment settings. During the procedure, the NeoGen device delivers controlled bursts of nitrogen plasma energy to the skin, targeting the deeper layers without affecting the surface. This unique approach stimulates the regeneration of collagen and elastin, leading to firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

The treatment is typically well-tolerated, with patients experiencing a warm sensation as the plasma energy is applied. Depending on the area being treated, the procedure can take between 30 minutes to an hour. NeoGen can be performed on the face, neck, and décolletage, and the intensity of the treatment can be adjusted to meet your specific goals.

Following the treatment, your skincare professional will apply a soothing cream to calm the skin and enhance the healing process. For optimal results, a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart may be recommended.

NeoGen is designed to minimize downtime while delivering impressive results. After the treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. The skin may also feel tighter and may begin to peel slightly as the outer layer renews itself.

Proper aftercare is essential to maximize the benefits of NeoGen. Your skincare professional will provide specific instructions, including the use of gentle skincare products and a high-SPF sunscreen to protect your newly treated skin. It's important to avoid direct sun exposure and refrain from using harsh exfoliants or active skincare products until the skin has fully healed, which usually takes about a week.

NeoGen is a safe and effective treatment, but like all cosmetic procedures, it carries some potential side effects. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and a mild peeling of the skin, which are signs that the treatment is working. These effects are usually short-lived and resolve on their own as the skin heals.

In rare cases, more severe side effects such as prolonged redness, hyperpigmentation, or infection can occur, particularly if post-treatment care instructions are not followed. To minimise the risk of complications, it’s crucial to adhere to the aftercare guidelines provided by your skincare professional.

Individuals with a history of cold sores should take preventive medication prior to undergoing NeoGen, as the treatment may trigger an outbreak. Always discuss any concerns or pre-existing conditions with your skincare provider to ensure the best possible results from your NeoGen treatment.
