Portrait^® of the Month

Pre-treatment

60 Days Post

Here’s what this Portrait^® patient had to say:

“I am a recovering sun worshiper and in the last two years I noticed a marked acceleration in the aging of my skin. Spots, freckles, wrinkles, sagging, the whole nine yards. I had the Portrait procedure done…. two months ago the results have been terrific. My skin looks about 10 - 15 years younger in that the tone has become even, the texture has improved enormously and many of my wrinkles and sagging have disappeared. … I feel lucky that I was able to have this procedure and feel that it has given me a second chance to take care of my skin the right way!”
Caitlin, Summit, NJ

Here’s what her physician had to say:

“My decision to offer Portrait^® plasma to my patients came about when I followed up with the patients I treated initially with this technology”, says Dr. Day. “I was taken by not only the very noticeable cosmetic improvement, but also with the natural, healthy quality of the skin that I have never seen with any technologies on the market. The results and the happiness of the patients convinced me that plasma energy is the next leap forward in offering treatments that patients want. Each Portrait^® Plasma patient has received excellent, reproducible, reliable results.” Doris Day, M.D., New York, NY

Success Stories

The recovery is so much superior to that of CO2 laser resurfacing…
Christine Petti, M.D., F.A.C.S, Plastic Surgeon, Los Angeles, CA

“I have had my Portrait PSR in place since October 2006. I have been very happy with the procedure and outcomes, both using low energies and high energies. The recovery is so much superior to that of CO₂ laser resurfacing, in that there is no serious reaction, exudates, and far less erythema. I have not seen post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation to date and no hypopigmentation, which both sequelae were reported in the literature as frequently seen after CO₂.”

“The Portrait PSR has been so enjoyable, producing outcomes that could never have been achieved with surgery alone or with any chemical peeling agent. I have extensive experience with the CO₂ laser as I have owned one since 1995. The aftercare is effortless compared with the CO₂.”

“I personally have had the low energy Portrait and I am very happy with the outcome, especially the eyelids. Of course, multiple treatments are going to produce even better results and all patients are informed of this.”

New Triple Pass Low Energy Protocol Provided Exciting Results…
Lynda T. Murphy, MS

With nearly 3 years of clinical use world wide of Portrait^® PSR³ (plasma skin regeneration), certain physicians are utilizing Portrait Plasma in new ways to offer more options for theirpatients. William H. Petri III, DMD, MD, PhD, Center for Dermatology & Maxillofacial Surgery, Chambersburg, PA, in his attempt to assess the potential impact of retinoid use prior to PSR treatment, utilized a multi-pass low energy treatment protocol. Neither the use of retinoids prior to PSR treatment nor multiple pass low energy treatments had previously been evaluated.

As a follow on to Dr. Petri’s research, Brian Biesman, MD, Nashville Centre for Laser and Facial Surgery, Nashville, TN, has recently been utilizing a 1.5J, 2-3 pass treatment protocol as an alternative to high energy, double pass periorbitally in his study on eyelid skin regeneration...More
