Ultra-Pulse Contact CAP

How is Ultra-Pulse Contact CAP different?

Ultra-Pulse Contact CAP is a medical-grade device uniquely calibrated for Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) skin. Unlike conventional CAP devices that deliver plasma from a distance, its innovative contact handpiece gently touches the skin, delivering plasma directly to the affected area with greater precision, consistency, and comfort.

Specially developed for sensitive, damaged, and wounded skin, it delivers precisely calibrated plasma energy to support the skin's natural regenerative processes, helping even severely compromised TSW skin recover more effectively.

The Science…

1. Triggering growth factors in the skin cell to increase regeneration rate

When the skin has been exposed to long term use of certain suppressive topical medications, the skin cells can be immunomodulated causing a slow cell regeneration rate, poor recovery and extremely weak and sensitive skin. Contact CAP directly reverses the effects of these medications by triggering the growth factors of the skin cells back to a normal rate. This is similar to working a muscle that has not moved for a long period of time.

Weekly sessions are required at the start of therapy to rebuild the skin’s strength; the duration and frequency of treatment can be reduced once the skin cell’s regeneration rate is stable.

2. Eradicates ‘bad’ bacteria and fungus

TSW comes with many complications, two of which are bacteria and fungal infection. Ultra Pulse Contact CAP kills ‘bad’ bacteria and fungal growth on the skin. When pathogens on the skin and in the air come into contact with CAP, they react with its unstable atoms (radicals such as ozone). These alter the lipids, proteins and nucleic acids of the bacteria, killing them or rendering them harmless. Keeping the skin infection free allows the skin the space to heal its wounds.

3. Micro-exfoliation for hardened skin

Elephant/hardened skin is another common complication of TSW. The electrons and ions produced by the CAP bounce off the skin’s surface, acting as a very fine exfoliator on the skin, gentle enough to significantly reduce hardened/elephant skin.

Procedure & Aftercare

**What is the procedure like?**

It is a priority of ours to ensure that you feel safe and comfortable during your therapy. The therapy itself is very relaxing and sometimes people fall asleep!
Upon arrival, we will take pictures of your skin to track your progress. After which, your therapy begins - all you have to do is lie down and relax and our therapists will perform the therapy on you.
For those requiring therapy on large areas of the body, please come in comfortable clothing that can be removed easily.

How long do I need per session?

How often do I need CAP Therapy?

You will begin therapy at a frequency of once a week. When your skin has become sufficiently stronger, you may extend sessions to once every 10 days, then 14 days, once a month and so forth, until you are independent of therapy. How quickly your skin becomes stronger and independent enough depends on your skin baseline and other lifestyle factors.
