Alma Hybrid Laser Treatment:
Customizable Resurfacing for Every Skin Goal
At Flora Aesthetics and Wellness, we are proud to offer the Alma Hybrid Laser—a revolutionary treatment that combines the resurfacing power of CO2 energy with the deep-reaching benefits of 1570nm non-ablative energy. This cutting-edge technology allows for unparalleled customization, making it ideal for a wide range of skin types, concerns, and treatment intensities.
Why Choose the Alma Hybrid Laser?
The Alma Hybrid Laser is designed to deliver exceptional results with flexibility and reduced downtime. By combining CO2 energy for surface-level improvements with 1570nm energy for deeper tightening and collagen stimulation, this device is tailored to meet your unique skin needs.
Here’s what makes the Hybrid so special:
- Dual Energy: CO2 targets fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, pore size, and uneven texture, while 1570nm energy stimulates collagen production and promotes skin tightening (Alma Lasers).
- Customizable Treatments: Whether you’re seeking dramatic results or a subtle glow, the Alma Hybrid offers a solution tailored to your goals.
- Reduced Downtime: Experience transformative results with less downtime compared to traditional CO2 lasers (PubMed).
Tailored to You: Three Levels of Treatment Intensity
The Alma Hybrid Laser offers a flexible approach with three distinct treatment intensities, making it suitable for a wide range of skin types and concerns.
1. One & Done
- Best for: Fitzpatrick Skin Types 1–3 (lighter skin tones) seeking dramatic results in a single session.
- Details: This is the most aggressive option, designed for patients who want maximum improvement in texture, wrinkles, pigmentation, and skin tone with one treatment. This intensity achieves remarkable results but requires significant downtime.
- Recovery: Patients can expect 7–14 days of redness, swelling, and peeling, with residual sensitivity lasting longer. While the downtime is noticeable, the results are transformative.
- Special Considerations:
- Patients with rosacea may experience prolonged redness post-treatment.
- Patients with melasma are not suitable for this intensity due to the risk of pigment worsening (AAD).
2. Three’s a Charm
- Best for: Patients seeking significant results over time with shorter, more manageable recovery periods.
- Details: This option includes three moderate-intensity treatments, spaced over several weeks. The cumulative energy across the three sessions equals the total energy of the One & Done, delivering comparable results while reducing immediate post-treatment intensity.
- Recovery: Each session involves 4–7 days of redness, swelling, and peeling, which is shorter and less intense than the downtime associated with the One & Done treatment. This approach is ideal for patients with busier lifestyles or those who prefer a gradual improvement.
- Special Considerations: Suitable for a broader range of skin types, though patients with melasma are still better served by the Hybrid Mini Glow Up option.
3. Hybrid Mini Glow Up
- Best for: Patients with melasma, darker skin tones, or those looking for a subtle, refreshing boost.
- Details: This mild, maintenance-level treatment is performed more frequently with lower energies to brighten skin, refine texture, and promote a healthy glow. This approach minimizes the risk of pigmentation issues while delivering steady improvements over time (PubMed).
- Recovery: Expect minimal downtime, making this an excellent option for patients with busy schedules or those seeking a gentle refresh.
Versatility Beyond the Face
The Alma Hybrid Laser isn’t just for facial rejuvenation. It’s also highly effective for:
- Full Face & Neck: Smooth wrinkles, tighten skin, and reduce pigmentation.
- Hands: Restore youthfulness and smoothness.
- Scars: Improve the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars, and more (Alma Lasers).
- Targeted Areas: Address skin concerns wherever they appear.
