Treating patients with heavy or thick features comes with challenges not present in those patients lacking these physical characteristics. The authors report our experience with cool atmospheric plasma for facial contouring and skin rejuvenation of the heavy face and neck including rhinophyma. Cool atmospheric plasma is generated by running helium gas over radiofrequency energy. The resulting plasma is a fourth state of matter and has enhanced clinical effects for ablation and thinning of skin and soft tissues as well of contouring and tightening of deeper soft tissues and fascia. Cool helium plasma has been a very effective tool for skin rejuvenation and skin tightening as well as using it as a tool for nonexcisional microinvasive face and neck rejuvenation. Future research may indicate that it can help treat primary or recurrent superficial cutaneous malignancies.
治疗面部特征厚重或厚实的患者面临着一些缺乏这些身体特征的患者所没有的挑战。作者报告了我们使用冷大气等离子体对面部厚重及颈部进行轮廓塑造和皮肤年轻化（包括酒渣鼻）的经验。冷大气等离子体是通过在射频能量上运行氦气产生的。产生的等离子体是物质的第四态，对皮肤和软组织的消融与变薄以及深层软组织和筋膜的轮廓塑造与紧致具有增强的临床效果。冷氦等离子体一直是皮肤年轻化和紧致的非常有效的工具，也被用作非切除性微创面部和颈部年轻化的工具。未来的研究可能表明它有助于治疗原发性或复发性浅表皮肤恶性肿瘤。
