NeoGen in brief
A quick, honest overview of what NeoGen can improve, how it works, and what recovery can look like, so you can decide if it feels right for you.
- Best for: Refining texture, toning, fine lines & wrinkles, enlarged pores, acne scarring, dullness and laxity, ideal when you want an all-over ‘skin quality’ upgrade.
- How it works: Nitrogen plasma delivers controlled thermal energy to encourage skin renewal and remodelling over the weeks that follow.
- Recovery: Expect visible downtime. Many clients have redness and tightness for 1–3 days, then dryness and flaking or peeling from around days 3–7 (varies with intensity).
- Areas: Full face or targeted zones; the delicate eye area may be treated following assessment.
- Treatment plan: Intensity is tailored to balance results with recovery time, and we’ll explain exactly what to expect before you book.
- Price: Introductory offer £700 per treatment (limited availability, suitability required).
Is NeoGen Plasma right for you?
NeoGen is often a great fit if you’d like visible skin renewal and firmer-looking skin, and you’re happy to allow a short healing phase. Do you answer yes to any of the below?
- Your skin feels rough or looks dull and you want a fresher, smoother finish
- Enlarged pores or ‘orange peel’ texture are a key concern
- You’d like to soften early fine lines and improve overall skin quality
- You’re noticing skin laxity and want a firmer-looking result without surgery
- You’re comfortable with a few days of redness/tightness followed by dryness or flaking as your skin renews
If you’re not sure whether NeoGen is the best option for your skin, we’ll guide you during a consultation and recommend the most suitable plan for your goals.
What is NeoGen Plasma?
NeoGen is a professional nitrogen plasma skin regeneration system. During treatment, medical-grade nitrogen gas is ionised to create nitrogen plasma, which delivers a controlled pulse of thermal energy to the skin. This controlled heating helps trigger the skin’s natural repair response, supporting smoother texture, a more even-looking tone and firmer-looking skin over the weeks that follow.
How does NeoGen Plasma work?
NeoGen treats the skin using controlled thermal energy rather than relying on pigment targets (as many laser systems do). One of the reasons NeoGen is so versatile is that intensity can be adjusted, from lighter ‘skin refresh’ settings to more intensive resurfacing-style protocols where appropriate. This flexibility allows us to balance results and recovery time based on your skin and your diary.
In simple terms
- A controlled plasma pulse delivers heat into the skin in a precise, uniform way.
- That controlled heat encourages skin renewal and remodelling.
- As your skin regenerates, many clients notice improvements in smoothness, clarity and firmness.
- Because intensity is tailored, results and downtime vary between individuals.
What does NeoGen feel like?
NeoGen is often described as a warm, prickly heat sensation, with comfort levels varying depending on the intensity used and the area being treated. We will talk you through comfort measures in advance and tailor treatment settings carefully. For many clients, knowing the expected recovery is the most important part, and we make sure that’s clear before you book.
What can NeoGen Plasma help with?
NeoGen Plasma is often chosen when the goal is visible improvement in overall skin quality rather than focusing on just one isolated concern. We commonly treat:
- Uneven skin texture and roughness
- Enlarged pores and ‘orange peel’ texture
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Dullness and loss of glow
- Skin laxity (for a firmer-looking finish)
- Post-acne texture concerns and the appearance of scarring (where suitable)
If you are unsure whether NeoGen is the best option for your skin, we’ll guide you during consultation and may recommend alternative or complementary treatments where they’re likely to deliver better outcomes.
NeoGen Plasma benefits
Every skin is different, but clients typically choose NeoGen because it can support:
- Smoother-feeling skin and refined-looking pores
- Improved clarity and a healthier-looking glow
- A more even-looking complexion
- A firmer, tighter feel that develops gradually
- A clinician-led plan that can be tailored to balance results and recovery
Results vary, and your outcome will depend on your skin condition, the intensity used, your aftercare and your wider skin plan.
Areas we can treat
NeoGen can be used on the face and selected areas of the body. Many clients also choose it for delicate areas such as around the eyes, where treatment planning needs to be precise.
- Full face (texture, pores, tone and firmness)
- Targeted areas (for example, cheeks, around the mouth, or forehead)
- Eye area (assessment required)
- Neck and décolletage (where suitable)
Who is NeoGen Plasma for?
NeoGen may suit you if you:
- Want skin regeneration and firmer-looking skin without surgery
- Are bothered by texture, pores, fine lines or dullness
- Can follow aftercare and allow appropriate healing time
- Prefer a clinician-led plan with realistic expectations
When NeoGen may not be suitable
NeoGen is not suitable for everyone. Your clinician will review your medical history, current skin health and skincare (including retinoids), and discuss upcoming events before recommending treatment. We may advise delaying treatment if your skin barrier is compromised, if you have an active skin infection, or if you cannot allow appropriate healing time.
Downtime and recovery: what to expect
NeoGen is an honest, results-driven treatment, and part of achieving visible skin renewal is allowing time for healing. Downtime varies based on the intensity used and your individual skin response. We will always explain what’s likely for your plan, so you can schedule treatment around work, social events and holidays.
Common temporary effects
- Redness and warmth (often most noticeable in the first 24 to 72 hours)
- Tightness and dryness as the skin begins to renew
- Flaking or light peeling (commonly days 3 to 7, depending on intensity)
- A ‘bronzed’ or slightly darker look as the skin prepares to shed (more common with higher intensity settings)
Typical recovery timeline
Every client heals differently, but the timeline below can be helpful when planning your diary:
- Day 0 to 2: Warmth and redness are common; skin may feel tight and dry.
- Day 3 to 5: Dryness increases and flaking or peeling may begin.
- Day 5 to 7: Peeling usually settles; skin may look fresher and smoother once shedding completes.
- Beyond 1 week: Ongoing improvements often continue for several weeks as skin remodelling progresses.
With more intensive settings, recovery can be more noticeable and may involve visible peeling and several days of social downtime. If you have an important event coming up, tell us, we’ll advise on safe timing and intensity.
Aftercare essentials
- Avoid picking or exfoliating while skin is healing.
- Use gentle cleanser and barrier-support moisturiser as advised by your practitioner.
- Avoid active skincare (for example retinoids, strong acids and vitamin C) until we advise it is safe to reintroduce.
- Avoid excessive heat, saunas and intense exercise for the period advised.
- Use broad-spectrum SPF daily and limit direct sun exposure while your skin is recovering.

When will I see results?
Some clients notice early improvements in smoothness and glow once initial dryness or peeling settles. Firmer-looking skin and texture refinement typically develop more gradually over the following weeks as skin remodelling continues.

Many clients start with one treatment. A course may be recommended for optimal results depending on your skin condition and goals. Your clinician will recommend the most sensible plan at consultation.
