Cold Plasma Acne Therapy
Antibacterial cold plasma to calm active breakouts.
Overview
Cold plasma therapy uses ionised gas to deliver controlled energy to the skin, reducing acne-causing bacteria, calming inflammation and supporting the skin's natural healing. Ideal for active breakouts, inflamed pimples and post-extraction recovery.
Key Benefits
- Reduces acne-causing bacteria
- Calms inflamed, angry breakouts
- Supports faster skin recovery
- No downtime — gentle on sensitive, acne-prone skin
How It Works
After a gentle cleanse, the cold plasma handpiece is passed over the skin generating a mild, pleasant warmth and tiny sparks. The energy penetrates pores to neutralise bacteria. A calming mask and finishing serum complete the treatment.
Who Is Suitable
Tailored to your concerns
Active, inflamed and cystic acne; congested, acne-prone and sensitive skin; post-extraction support.
Recommended Treatment Course
Your personalised plan
A course of 4–6 weekly sessions is typically recommended to settle active breakouts. Your practitioner will review your progress at each visit and adjust the plan as your skin responds.

Client Stories
What clients say
HIFU Body Tightening
"After losing weight I had loose skin on my arms that really got to me. Dafni was so understanding and never made me feel weird about it. A few HIFU sessions later and the firmness is amazing. She actually celebrates your wins with you."
Fatima H.
Keysborough, VIC
Medical Skin Needling
"Was terrified of needling but Dafni talked me through every bit of it. My acne scars have softened so much and my skin's smoother than it's been since my teens. She's got this calming vibe that makes the scary stuff feel fine."
Renee S.
Parkdale, VIC
Fat Cavitation
"Dafni was straight up about what to expect from the start and that's why I went with her. The cavitation sessions have noticeably slimmed my flanks and I finally feel good in fitted clothes. Never pushed extra sessions on me."
Lucia G.
Dingley, VIC
Corrective Peel (Level 3 TCA)
"Been to three other clinics before Dafni and none of them took the time she did. She assessed my skin properly before moving me to the stronger peel. My pigmentation's faded so much. Worth every cent honestly."
Bianca P.
Carnegie, VIC
Regenerative Infusion
"My skin was so reactive after a bad reaction at another place. Dafni calmed it all down with the regenerative infusion and rebuilt my barrier over a few sessions. She's patient and knows her stuff. Got my confidence back."
Imani O.
