There are 3 commonly known states of matter are solid, liquid and gas, Plasma is the 4th state of matter.
Plasma comprises of an ionised gas charged with equal amounts of negative and positive charged electrons when it hits the atmosphere, in the air to create a small electrical arc, similar to a very small bolt of lightning, and hits the skin, it evaporates any liquid in the skin at the exact point of contact and burns the lesions on impact.
The healing process takes between 3-10 days. During that time, there will be a scab on your skin’s surface. Keep the affected area clean and dry. Apply aloe vera gel to prevent irritation and speed up healing. The scab will become darker and fall off by itself in a few days.
In most cases, no further treatment is needed. In rare cases, a second treatment may be required to remove a very large mole or skin tag completely.
