Aluma™ Wrinkle Reduction System

Aluma skin renewal treatments turn back the clock and gently reverse the aging process by using a revolutionary technology called FACES™ (Functional Aspiration Controlled Electrothermal Stimulation). FACES results in energy being deposited deep in the skin, gently stimulating the production of new collagen, while protecting the outer layer of the skin. The new collagen that is formed plumps and smooths the skin, making it appear more youthful.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Who can be treated?
   Aluma energy is not affected by skin tone, hair color or any other characteristic. Anyone wanting to treat mild-to-moderate wrinkles and achieve smoother skin can be treated.
    
2. What can you expect?
   Treatments are comfortable. Skin is gently drawn into the tip of the handpiece and energy is delivered resulting in a gentle warming of the deeper layers of the skin.

   A treatment typically takes only about 15 minutes and you can return to normal activities immediately. A series of treatments are recommended for best results. Fine lines are reduced and skin is tightened as new collagen is deposited in the dermis. Although some improvement will be seen within a month to a few months, the skin should continue to improve for several months after the treatments as new collagen is generated.

3. Is the procedure safe?
   Risks are very minimal. The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All procedures have some degree of risk, but fortunately this revolutionary technology is associated with few problems.
    
4. Does it hurt?
   Most patients report a gentle warming sensation. Discomfort, even mild discomfort, is rare.
