Revive Your Skin with Aluma

While you enjoy the benefits of growing old, like more financial stability and job security, you also seek to retain your skin’s youthful glow. Unfortunately, there are too many procedures that advertise youth and beauty but only deliver results that look forced, uneven, and unnatural. The Aluma skin renewal system from Lumenis is different. Using radiofrequency technology, Aluma reduces wrinkles and lifts the skin in a gradual and completely natural way to help you look and feel younger without any plastic surgery.

Radiofrequency Technology For Accelerated Healing

Radiofrequency (RF) technology is the hottest tool used in cosmetic enhancement treatments. This Lumenis system actually uses a gentle suction to pull the skin in and apply a controlled dose of radiofrequency energy into the foundation of the skin. This RF energy does not cause any harm to the skin itself. Instead, it triggers the manufacturing of collagen, which in turn stimulates the body’s internal healing process. Immediately after an Aluma treatment, your skin will be working overtime to heal itself with the extra stores of collagen it was lacking before. As time passes, you’ll notice your skin looking firmer, smoother, and more contoured.

Details About the Aluma Treatment

If you’re looking to treat your face or neck, Aluma is the perfect non-surgical way to make it happen. It’s especially effective on the delicate skin around the eyes, where lasers can’t always treat due to the risk of retinal damage. In the weeks leading up to your Aluma treatment, you need to use specific skin care products in order to prime your skin and achieve optimal results. On the day of your appointment, you’ll cleanse your skin, apply a conductive lotion that helps RF energy travel more efficiently, and then relax as a clinician uses a hand piece to suction your skin gently into the Aluma device.

Depending on the size of the treated area, you appointment might last up to an hour. Best of all, since Aluma does not require any anesthetic, needles, cutting, sutures, or scarring, you can enjoy this painless procedure and then get back to your normal activities. Most patients receive four to five Aluma treatments spaced about a week apart. If this is what you choose to do, you’ll notice gradual results over the span of about two months. First your fine lines and wrinkles will smooth out, and as your collagen continues to build, your complexion will become smoother, tighter, and firmer. Results can last up to a year, or even longer if you go in for touch-up sessions.
