A clinic asks whether the plasma step puts heat into the skin. Physically it does not โ€” and the reason decides which numbers belong in the protocol.

Cold atmospheric plasma is a non-equilibrium state. Free electrons are heated far more efficiently than the heavy particles around them, so the electrons run very hot while ions and neutral gas molecules stay near ambient temperature. The heavy particles carry almost all of the mass, so the gas that meets the skin is not hot: published dermatology reviews report treated skin staying close to body temperature during CAP application (about 37โ€“38 ยฐC), below the 40 ยฐC ceiling defined for skin-safe operation (Khalaf et al., Eur J Med Res 2024;29:487).

Those high-energy electrons drive excitation, ionisation and dissociation at low gas temperature, producing reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, charged particles and local electric fields. That is why the barrier effect is described as transient permeabilisation rather than a thermal effect.

In plasma physics measurements on pure water, the formation rate of Hโ‚‚Oโ‚‚ and OH radicals dropped by orders of magnitude as the nozzle-to-surface gap widened from 0.5 to 5.5 cm, while nitrite and nitrate changed by about one order (Sergeichev et al., Front Phys 2021;8:614684 โ€” a model liquid, not skin). Distance and exposure time per area are protocol entries, not operator habits.

Cold plasma is one of three mechanisms on the platform, alongside microjetting and electroporation, described as temporarily disrupting the skin barrier and creating micro-channels to enhance absorption; 25 shots per second; 27 customisable memory slots; a one-button nozzle cleaning mode; an advanced cooling system that lets the handpiece run continuously at maximum speed.

On the mid-forehead, MRI measurements put roughly 5 mm between the skin surface and the outer cortex of the frontal bone. Several facial depth options reach further than that.

Soft tissue and cortical bone sit far apart acoustically โ€” published measurements cite about 1.62 MRayl for soft tissue against 6.27 MRayl for cortical bone (Pham et al., Proc Inst Mech Eng H 2022;236(9):1403โ€“1413). At that mismatch, a substantial part of the incident energy does not continue into bone: some is absorbed right at the surface, some is reflected back into the tissue just above it. Therapeutic ultrasound literature, working at far higher intensities, names the consequence plainly โ€” the periosteum, the most innervated structure of mature bone, is heated by that absorbed and reflected energy (Scipione et al., Semin Intervent Radiol 2018;35(4):261โ€“267).

An MRI study of 160 adults measured forehead soft tissue from skin to the external cortical lamina: about 5.7 mm midline in men and 5.3 mm in women, 7.4 and 6.8 mm laterally, with thinning after the fifth decade (Cakmakoglu et al., Aesthetic Plast Surg 2025;49(19):5275โ€“5283). The depth budget is regional and individual, not universal.

Published data on the technology report higher discomfort over submental and submandibular areas than over the cheek, with proximity to underlying bone the usual explanation. Regional differences are a mapping signal, not a patient-tolerance signal.

Cold plasma is usually described as the step that "prepares the skin." Published work on the technology is more specific: what it opens, it also closes โ€” within minutes.

In published dielectric barrier discharge research on human skin ex vivo, plasma permeabilises the stratum corneum across the treated area. Permeabilisation was tracked as a change in transepithelial electrical resistance, and Franz-cell permeation with differently sized hydrophilic particles was used to estimate pore characteristics. The barrier is not removed โ€” it is transiently made passable.

On human skin explants treated with a kHz plasma jet, surface pH, wettability and barrier readings all shifted and returned to pre-exposure levels within roughly 20 minutes. Inside that window, caffeine reached the receptor chamber about 30 minutes after topical application, versus about 8 hours on untreated controls; hyaluronic acid was distributed across the explant after 1 hour instead of remaining in the upper layer (Vijayarangan et al., Front Phys 2023;11:1173349).

A focused transducer concentrates energy at a fixed distance from its own face. Everything in between โ€” epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous fat โ€” is compressible. Press harder and the same fixed distance lands on a different anatomical layer.

A 2025 systematic review of applied probe pressure in diagnostic ultrasound (Suchoล„ et al., Sensors 2025;25(11):3415) pooled 26 studies and found reported forces up to roughly 30 N for human operators, with force monitoring improving image quality and reproducibility. Published reviews of microfocused ultrasound describe the same variable on the treatment side: pressure applied at the provider's discretion, with coupling maintained, can shift the effective treatment depth by up to about 1.5 mm.

Some superficial techniques use that shift on purpose, pressing to place coagulation points at or just below the deep dermis. Unspecified, the same variable becomes drift โ€” between two operators, or between two sessions on the same patient.

Within a single face, published ultrasound measurements place the dermis of the mouth corner and the dermis of the lateral forehead at opposite ends of the range โ€” and the plane you intend to treat moves with them.

High-frequency ultrasound of eight facial sites in 118 healthy adults reported mean dermal thickness from about 0.58 mm (eyelid, women) to 1.17 mm (forehead, men) โ€” roughly a twofold spread across sites and s*xes (Meng et al., BMC Med Imaging 2022;22:113). A separate eight-site study found the thickest dermis at the corner of the mouth and the thinnest at the lateral forehead, with full-skin and dermal thickness lower in women than in men (Jeong et al., Skin Res Technol 2023;29(8):e13426).

Site and s*x differences appear in both datasets, and age-related dermal thinning was reported in women at the forehead, glabella, zygoma and submandibular sites. BMI is less consistent: one study found a neck correlation in women, the other no significant correlation with BMI at all. Taken together, that makes site the variable worth planning around โ€” with the absolute millimetre values read as cohort reference points, not universal constants.

Focused ultrasound deposits its energy at a depth fixed by the transducer, not by the power setting. Where the dermis is thinner, the same focal depth sits in a different tissue plane. So depth selection is anatomical mapping done before the first line โ€” zone by zone, patient by patient.

In needle-free liquid jet injection, the depth and lateral spread of the jet in skin are governed by nozzle geometry and jet velocity together. Schramm-Baxter and Mitragotri (J Control Release 2004;97(3):527โ€“535) varied both across a wide experimental range and found that the geometry of pe*******on and dispersion collapsed onto a single parameter โ€” jet power. Two systems showing a similar setting on screen are not delivering the same thing if the nozzle differs.

Injectors are typically fitted to sit normal to the skin, but oblique jet paths have been studied for intradermal targeting and depth control (Lawal et al., Int J Pharm 2024;664:124612, in hydrogel phantoms and porcine tissue with excised human skin).

The classic anatomic work on subdermal architecture (Nรผrnberger & Mรผller, J Dermatol Surg Oncol 1978;4(3):221โ€“229) reported that the connective tissue between dermis and subcutis is organised differently by s*x: radial, arch-like chambers in women, versus tangential, criss-crossing units in men. A later biomechanical study of gluteal tissue in 20 body donors (Rudolph et al., Plast Reconstr Surg 2019;143(4):1077โ€“1086) quantified it โ€” subdermal fat lobules were more numerous in male donors (10.05 ยฑ 2.3) than female donors (7.51 ยฑ 2.7; p = 0.003), and the force needed to break the septa was higher in males (38.46 ยฑ 26.3 N) than females (23.26 ยฑ 10.2 N; p = 0.021). The authors describe the subdermal junction as a balance between containment and extrusion.

Surface topography is a subdermal-junction phenomenon a few millimetres under the skin. Volume sits deeper. "Same body area" therefore does not mean "same target layer." A published grading scale (Hexsel et al., J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 2009) plus a recorded subcutaneous thickness documents what you assessed and which layer you intended to reach.

In many clinics the doctor who plans the treatment and the person holding the handpiece are not the same โ€” and that handover is where parameters quietly drift.

The standard operating protocol for energy-based devices (Mysore et al., J Cosmet Dermatol 2024;23(12):3809โ€“3820) was written for exactly this situation: "treating doctor and operating doctor may be different." Its asks are unglamorous โ€” parameters set from the doctor's written instructions, a signed pre-procedure checklist for contraindications, consent dated before every repeated session, final parameters entered in the record, and an experienced consultant available to supervise.

Litigation reviews in cutaneous laser surgery point the same way: 175 cases from 1999โ€“2012, 42.9% involving a nonphysician operator and 64% of those outside a traditional medical setting (Jalian et al., JAMA Dermatol 2014;150(4):407โ€“411); nonphysician operators in 71% of 69 claims from 2012โ€“2020 (Khalifian et al., Dermatol Surg 2022;48(3):315โ€“319). Those are laser data โ€” not microwave, not about HIRONIC devices, and not device-specific at all. The transferable signal is supervision and documentation.

Officially stated: 2.45 GHz Focused Intensive Microwave; a 3 mm facial handpiece and a body handpiece at 7 and 12 mm; Contact & Moving Smart Sensor; integrated contact cooling; 10โ€“15 minutes average procedure time. Depth is set by handpiece, so the written line is which handpiece, which area, how long โ€” not a power number. The sensor keeps delivery conditions consistent; it does not replace the written plan.

A patient books a body contouring session and mentions a pacemaker only after lying down on the treatment table. What should happen next should already be written down.

For most screening questions, the answer changes a setting. For an active implanted electronic device, it changes whether the session happens at all. A review of physiotherapy practice in patients with cardiac rhythm devices (Digby et al., Europace 2009;11(7):850โ€“859) concluded that diathermy โ€” the modality that heats tissue with shortwave or microwave energy โ€” is best avoided in these patients, and noted that device manufacturers advise against it. The concern is not the dose on the skin. It is energy coupling into an implanted system.

The intake question is not "any metal?" but "any active implanted electronic device?" โ€” pacemaker, ICD, loop recorder, neurostimulator, insulin pump. The same review recommends consulting the device clinic managing the implant when in doubt. That clearance comes from the physician managing the implant, not from the aesthetic clinic, and it takes time โ€” which is why it belongs at booking, not at the table.

2.45 GHz Focused Intensive Microwave, handpieces for 3 / 7 / 12 mm target depth, Contact & Moving Smart Sensor, contact cooling, and an electromagnetic shielding structure with measured radiated output HIRONIC describes as comparable to a home Wi-Fi router.

Two devices show the same joules per shot. Why do they give different results on the same patient?

Manufacturers love to advertise energy output โ€” joules, watts, peak power. But energy alone doesn't tell you what actually happens inside the tissue. A device can deliver high energy in a fraction of a second and still under-treat, or deliver moderate energy over a controlled duration and outperform it.

In 1984, researchers Sapareto and Dewey introduced CEM43 โ€” a formula that converts any time-temperature combination into one comparable number: cumulative equivalent minutes at 43ยฐC. A brief, intense spike and a longer, sustained plateau can produce the same tissue effect โ€” different path, same result.

- A single energy pulse alone doesn't predict tissue effect
- A sustained thermal dose โ€” temperature held and controlled over time โ€” is what CEM43 measures, and what determines the outcome

New Doublo doesn't rely on a single fixed energy setting for every patient. Different cartridges are matched to different tissue depths and skin thickness, allowing the practitioner to calibrate energy and spacing to the individual patient rather than applying a one-size-fits-all setting.

That's the CEM43 principle in clinical practice: matching energy and duration to the specific tissue, not relying on a single number that's assumed to work for everyone.

A dual safety system โ€” a patented contact sensor (SCS) plus a motion sensor โ€” also monitors cartridge-to-skin contact throughout treatment, helping reduce the risk of burns if contact is lost mid-procedure.
