What Makes the Alma Hybrid the Pinnacle of Laser Technology?
Customisation: Each Alma Hybrid treatment is fully personalised to your skin's unique needs. By leveraging a proprietary blend of three energy types, we craft bespoke solutions that align with your specific skin goals and lifestyle.
Versatility: The Alma Hybrid excels in offering a diverse range of treatments, from those requiring minimal to no downtime to more intensive resurfacing options with a recovery period of up to 5-7 days. This adaptability ensures optimal results for every individual, whether you seek subtle enhancement or profound transformation.
The Alma Hybrid's unmatched ability to deliver tailored care through advanced energy technologies sets it apart as the most sophisticated laser system available today.
What Are the 3 Energy Types in the Alma Hybrid and How Do They Work?
CO₂ Laser: This component combines ablative, coagulative, and thermal effects to deliver precise focused or fractional laser treatments. It excels in resurfacing by removing damaged skin layers, stimulating collagen production, and improving skin texture.
1570 nm Erbium: A non-ablative laser that penetrates deeply to generate a thermal effect in the dermis. It promotes collagen remodelling and new collagen formation while leaving the skin's surface intact, making it ideal for enhancing skin firmness and reducing fine lines with minimal downtime.
IMPACT™ for Trans Epidermal Delivery (TED): This patented ultrasound technology creates acoustic pressure that facilitates the delivery of medications and cosmeceutical ingredients through microchannels formed by the CO₂ laser. This enhances the efficacy of topical treatments and supports deeper skin rejuvenation.
Treatment Types
HYBRID LIFT - Super Renewal Treatment
The Hybrid Lift combines the best of ablative and thermal laser technology with enhanced delivery of topical medications, providing unparalleled results with a relatively short downtime of 4-7 days.
This innovative treatment uses a unique scanning pattern to effectively remove fine lines, deep wrinkles, and solar pigmentation. Simultaneously, it stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which continues to develop over the following months, ensuring long-lasting skin rejuvenation and a smoother, more youthful appearance.
SOFTLIFT - "Lunch Time" Rejuvenation Treatment
SoftLift offers a quick yet effective solution for skin rejuvenation, perfect for those seeking minimal downtime. This treatment refines skin tone, smooths fine lines and wrinkles, and repairs superficial skin lesions, such as mild acne scars, with virtually no recovery time.
Using the powerful yet non-ablative 1570 nm laser, SoftLift generates a significant thermal effect that promotes new collagen growth and regenerates the dermis, while leaving the epidermis intact. This makes it safe for all skin types, including darker tones. SoftLift improves skin texture, restores youthful skin tone, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and mild wrinkles, all in a brief, convenient session.
HYBRID OSCAR - Scar Treatment
Hybrid Oscar utilises the combined power of CO₂ and 1570 nm Erbium lasers to deliver exceptional scar improvement. This advanced treatment features highly customisable parameters to address a variety of scar types, ensuring optimal, personalised results. By leveraging the strengths of both laser technologies, Hybrid Oscar dramatically enhances the appearance of scars, promoting smoother, more even skin.
