Technology
What is argon plasma?
Two proven medical energy principles — combined into one modern system.
Component 1: Argon gas
- •Biologically inert noble gas — non-toxic
- •Acts as cooling medium — protects against overheating
- •Larger molecules than helium — lower risk
- •Eliminated through the respiratory cycle
Component 2: Radiofrequency
- •RF alternating current through argon plasma beam
- •85°C for only 0.4 milliseconds
- •Contracts collagen fibres instantly by 40–50%
- •Argon gas cooling protects the dermis
Selective collagen effect
Collagen has the lowest electrical resistance of all tissue structures. ArgoPlasma acts selectively — nerves, vessels and fat remain intact.
Dual effect
Immediate + long-term — the double effect
- Thermal energy contracts collagen fibres instantly
- 40–50% of fibres immediately shortened
- Surgeon sees tightening in real time
- Patient sees improvement the next day
- Controlled thermal injury activates fibroblasts
- New, high-quality collagen and elastin
- 3 months: clear improvement
- 6–9 months: optimal overall result
Safety
Why argon is safer than helium
Gas diffusion advantage
Helium molecules diffuse faster through tissue — higher risk of pneumo-complications. Argon: larger molecules, reduced risk.
Active cooling
Argon cools actively: skin temperature about 38°C — compared to 45°C+ with bulk RF systems.
No carbonisation
No smoke, no burn by-products — safe, clean OR environment.
"Clinical measurements show that in an average treatment region, skin temperatures get to about 38°C — as opposed to 45°C and higher with bulk RF systems."— Ocean Clinic Marbella
