Targets Blemish-Causing Bacteria

Reduces Inflammation & Flushing
Soothe persistent redness, flushing and sensitivity with a non-thermal plasma treatment that calms reactive skin and supports a healthier, more even complexion — an ideal option for rosacea sufferers looking for a comfortable, downtime-free approach.
Restores the Skin Barrier
Plasma therapy helps relieve the itching, irritation and dryness associated with eczema and atopic dermatitis by supporting the skin barrier and reducing inflammation, giving fragile, compromised skin the chance to recover and rebalance.
Firmer, Smoother, Brighter Skin
Stimulate your skin’s natural renewal to soften fine lines, refine texture and restore a healthy glow. By encouraging collagen and elastin activity, cold plasma is a subtle, rejuvenating treatment for skin that needs a lift without injectables.
Delicate Rejuvenation, Zero Needles

Dr Platon Cold Plasma Therapy uses cold atmospheric plasma, a stream of ionised gas generated at body-safe temperatures, to interact with the skin's surface without heat or needles. The plasma helps disrupt blemish-causing bacteria, calms inflammation and stimulates your skin's natural healing response, encouraging fresh collagen production. At Thriyv on Whitworth Street in Manchester, every session is delivered under the clinical oversight of our Medical Director, Dr Callum Shields (MBChB), and tailored to your skin following a full consultation.
Yes, cold atmospheric plasma is a non-invasive, needle-free treatment that operates at low temperatures, so it will not burn or damage the skin. Most patients describe the sensation as a gentle warmth or light tingling, and no anaesthetic is required. Because every treatment at Thriyv is medically supervised, your skin type and medical history are reviewed before your first session to confirm Dr Platon is the right fit for you.
Dr Platon is commonly used to help clear active acne and breakouts, calm rosacea and redness, soothe eczema and dermatitis, support collagen production for anti-ageing, rejuvenate delicate under-eye and eyelid skin, and boost the absorption of your existing skincare routine. It is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin, with your treatment plan personalised to the concerns you want to address.
Most patients notice an improvement in tone, texture and inflammation within a few sessions, though a full course of treatments is usually recommended for longer-lasting results, as collagen renewal continues to build over several weeks. During your consultation, our clinical team will recommend a personalised treatment schedule based on your skin goals.
One of the main benefits of cold plasma therapy is that it requires little to no downtime. Some patients experience mild, temporary redness immediately after treatment, similar to a light flush, which typically settles within a few hours. You can usually return to your normal daily activities straight away, making it easy to fit around a busy Manchester schedule.
Cold plasma therapy is gentle enough for most skin types, but it may not be suitable if you are pregnant, have an active skin infection, certain implanted medical devices, or specific underlying health conditions. That's why every new patient at Thriyv undergoes a thorough consultation with our clinical team before treatment, so we can confirm Dr Platon is safe and appropriate for you.
