NeoGen Lift is rewriting the rules of skin rejuvenation. Designed with safety, science, and real results in mind, NeoGen Plasma uses nitrogen plasma energy to smooth skin texture, soften fine lines, and stimulate collagen production, without the risks of traditional laser resurfacing.
If you’ve been told lasers are too risky for your skin type, here’s what you need to know about the safety profile of NeoGen Plasma and how it compares to other popular aesthetic treatments offered in Newport Beach.
Why Newport Beach Patients Are Choosing Plasma Over Laser
Laser treatments like CO2 lasers and Erbium lasers are powerful, but they vaporize the skin’s surface, which can lead to postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, skin texture issues, or prolonged recovery time. This is especially true for patients with medium to deeper skin tones.
NeoGen Plasma works differently. By delivering superheated nitrogen gas to create controlled thermal energy in the deeper layers of skin (the reticular dermis), NeoGen stimulates collagen and elastin production without damaging the outermost skin. No ablation. No pigment risk. No light-based technology that can trigger unwanted discoloration.
For our Newport Beach patients, that means fewer risks and better results across all skin tones, from Fitzpatrick I to VI.
Safe for All Skin Tones, Backed by Nitrogen Plasma Technology
Unlike fractional lasers or radiofrequency microneedling, NeoGen Plasma doesn’t rely on light energy. Nitrogen plasma energy isn’t absorbed by melanin, making this treatment a safer option for skin types that might otherwise be at risk from traditional laser therapies.
This is a major win for patients with melanated skin who want real results without risking uneven pigment or skin injury. Whether you’re treating acne scars, enlarged pores, age spots, or sun damage, NeoGen Lift offers precision skin resurfacing with a remarkably low complication rate.
What Side Effects to Expect (And How We Keep Them Mild)
NeoGen Plasma side effects are generally minimal and temporary.
You might experience:
- Mild redness and swelling for 3–7 days
- Skin flaking or peeling during the regeneration phase
- Temporary dryness or tightness, especially around the eye area
Less common but possible:
- Skin infection (rare with proper aftercare)
- Cold sore flare-ups if you carry the herpes simplex virus
- Mild contact dermatitis or breakouts on sensitive skin
How we keep you safe:
- Skin consultations to assess medical history, prior aesthetic treatments, and skin tone
- Preventive antivirals if needed
- Post-procedure care with products like Skinceuticals B5 Hydrate and barrier creams
- Custom recovery plans to minimize downtime and support healthy cellular renewal
We also advise SPF 30+ daily, gentle cleansing, and avoidance of active ingredients during the healing phase.
NeoGen vs. Lasers, Peels, and RF: What Really Makes It Safer
Compared to other skin rejuvenation technologies, NeoGen Plasma stands out for its safety, particularly for mature skin and patients with skin concerns like:
- Acne scarring
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin laxity
- Actinic keratosis
- Uneven skin tone
- Loss of elasticity due to sun damage
Here’s how it stacks up:
- Vs. CO2 & Erbium Lasers: NeoGen requires no ablation, which means less trauma and no light-induced pigment disruption.
- Vs. Fractional Lasers & RF Microneedling: More consistent results across diverse skin tones, with better collagen production at deeper dermal levels.
- Vs. Chemical Peels: NeoGen is more customizable and predictable, especially for sensitive or darker skin types.
Unlike laser skin resurfacing, which works by vaporizing tissue, NeoGen preserves the skin’s surface while using thermal energy to regenerate from within. This results in more even skin texture, refined pore size, and long-term skin tightening, with less risk and faster recovery time.
