“…Fractional micro‐plasma radio‐frequency technology is a new modality that makes use of a discharge of radio‐frequency energy acting on a stream of nitrogen gas very close to the surface of the skin by spicules on the roller. A portion of the gas molecules is ionized into a high‐energy state of matter called “plasma” . As plasma is very sensitive to electromagnetic fields, the RF energy triggers micro‐sparks in the plasma between the skin surface and the spicules of the handpiece.…”

“…However, the ablative depth could reach to the upper part of the dermis with increasing energy, and thus to remodel a superficial layer of dermis. By this way, the FMRT can remodel tissue structure via ablative microchannel of epidermis and controlled thermal modification of the underlying dermis, with new collagen synthesis and collagen remodeling [2,3]. With this type of working mechanism, the created micropore wound can be healed in 7 days (.…”

“…In recent years, combined with the fractional technology, micro-plasma radiofrequency has achieved good outcomes for the treatment of traumatic scars as well as acne scars [52, 54]. Comparable to the ablative fractional laser, the fractional micro-plasma radiofrequency technology (FMRT) has been emerging as a technology, characterizing with both ablation and thermal coagulation, which is capable to induce the neogenesis of collagen and remodeling of epidermis and dermis.…”
