Aluma
Truffles Medispa is proud to introduce Aluma Skin Renewal
System with FACES (Functional Aspiration Controlled
Electrothermal Stimulation) technology. Aluma
is unique in offering radio frequency energy in a targeted
and selective manner. It combines Bipolar RF with vacuum
to target heat safely and virtually painlessly deep
in the dermis for effective wrinkle treatment and skin
tightening.
This is different from other RF systems such as
Monopolar systems (Thermage). Monopolar systems use
a grounding pad and while the majority of the energy
is converted to heat at the surface of the skin,
much flows through the body to the grounding pad.
This extraneous flow requires cooling and can be
painful. Other Bipolar RF systems without FACES deliver
the energy primarily across the epidermis and not
deep into the dermis. There is also the potential
danger of arcing.
Aluma with FACES positions the skin for optimum
targeting of the collagen-rich dermal tissues so
RF flows in a straight path through the dermal tissue.
It ensures 100% contact with electrodes to eliminate
the risk of arcing. A coupling medium reduces the
impedance of the epidermis allowing the RF energy
to pass through it without creating heat. As the
RF meets the impedance in the dermis, heat is generated.
This results in safe and effective deep dermal heating
with little or no discomfort.
It is appropriate for all skin types (I-VI) including
darker pigmented people and all body parts, facial
and non-facial. It requires a series of six treatments,
one treatment per week. For optimal results, we recommend
our medical grade skin care programs with will supply
the dermis of the skin with the appropriate nutrients/medications
to assist collagen formation.
