Abstract
A radio frequency generated plasma is provided to a skin surface in a controlled manner, in order to heat and selectively damage a thin superficial layer, thereby inducing a renewal process of the epidermis. The plasma is generated by providing a vacuum to the probe, and also providing an rf pulse to an electrode within the probe, thereby creating a glow discharge that includes gas ions that contact the skin and cause the skin to heat up.
