Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to devices, systems and methods for subdermal tissue tightening through soft tissue coagulation and for use in cosmetic surgery applications. The devices, systems and methods of the present disclosure may be used for a minimally invasive application of plasma energy to subcutaneous tissue for the purpose of tightening lax tissue. The present disclosure further provides several elasticity measurement devices, which are used to determine the elasticity of a tissue. The measurements obtained by the elasticity measurement devices are used to determine when a desired firmness or elasticity has been achieved during a tissue tightening procedure.
