STRETCH MARKS AND SCARS

Acne can lead to varying degrees of scarring. When the pores swell as a result of an infection that causes acne, the follicle wall can break down. A deep tear can allow infection to spread and ultimately cause a lesion that leads to a lasting scar on the face.

Acne scars can diminish a person’s well-being. In severe cases, loss of self-esteem can lead to feelings of isolation and hamper professional and personal relationships. We use Alma Lasers technology to help patients regain youthful-looking skin.

Scar severity can vary greatly from patient to patient. Alma’s solutions allow us to treat minor and severe cases with proven effectiveness.

Stretch marks appear as pink or purplish-red lines (early phase) which, after several weeks or months, take on a wrinkled appearance and a paler or skin-like shade (early phase). late).

The treatments

Alma’s innovations combine the known efficacy of an ablative approach with a level of comfort and convenience for the patient.

For patients, this means more comfortable treatment with maximum results and minimal risk of unwanted side effects.

WHAT'S THIS :

This is a device that emits radiofrequency waves that penetrate deep into the dermis to help repair the architecture of the skin. Skin resurfacing for all skin types. Alma’s Microplasma technology, provided by our microablative RF needling tips creates multiple controlled micro punctures with small areas of ablative skin lesions. These micro-perforation channels are surrounded by thermally damaged areas, deep in the skin layers to create skin regeneration. MicroPlasma technology is the most advanced skin resurfacing technology on the market and helps improve the overall appearance of the skin with very short and gentle downtime.

WORKING :

Emitted by a handpiece passed over the skin, the radio frequency penetrates the dermis to create a thermal effect that destroys damaged cells.

PAIN LEVEL:

Low.
