We use the
state-of-the-art
Alma Harmony system.
The Harmony AFT Intense Pulsed Light Device manufactured by Alma Lasers. The Harmony Platform employs patented Advanced Flourescent Technology (AFT). All IPL machines use some type of device to prevent harmful ultraviolet light from reaching the skin. Most machines use filters to simply block out the UV rays. In contrast, the Harmony IPL converts the UV li.ght to useful wavelengths. Because more light is available at the desired wavelength, the overall energy delivered can be reduced, and consequently, the machine is safer. This safety factor is the primary reason we decided to purchase the Harmony to treat our patients
