Clearlift - Reverse the signs of aging in minutes!
Youth may be short-lived but looking ageless doesn’t have to be. Get ready to turn a few heads with ClearLift’s age-defying results. ClearLift by Alma Laser is a breakthrough in cosmetic laser technology. ClearLift provides state-of-the-art, dramatic facial tightening you can do on your lunch break. Coined the “lunchtime lift”, ClearLift has been seen on The View, Dr Oz, The Doctors, and featured in The NY Post, Harper’s Bazaar and more! Using painless laser technology, ClearLift reverses the superficial signs of aging with absolutely no downtime.
How does ClearLift work?
ClearLift uses advanced laser technology to deeply heat and modify collagen bundles while stimulating the production of new elastic fibers and supportive elements within the skin. The ClearLift laser virtually erases fine lines and wrinkles on the face, while firming and tightening delicate areas around the eyes & mouth, neck and chest. ClearLift technology goes into the deeper subcutaneous tissue to stimulate the growth of new collagen without affecting the epidermis. That means that all the work is going on underneath, deep inside the skin, without any side effects. ClearLift remodels the collagen that helps the skin build more support in the dermal structures.
What can I expect during my ClearLift treatment?
- During your one-on-one consultation with one of our Master Estheticians at Estetica Spa, we will assess your skin, address your concerns, and determine if you are a candidate for ClearLift and how many treatments are recommended for optimal results.
- Prior to treatment, your skin is cleansed and your eyes are covered to shield them from the laser’s beam. The ClearLift hand-piece is then moved over the desired treatment areas . It emits small, powerful pulses of light that penetrate the skin creating dermal heating while leaving the superficial outer layer of skin unaffected. The hand-piece is slowly moved over the entire treatment area and the process is repeated.
- ClearLift is painless — and gentle enough to be used on the most sensitive areas of the face and neck.
- A ClearLift treatment typically takes less than an hour to complete (sometimes as little as 25 minutes). Because it is so fast, the ClearLift can be scheduled on a lunch break. Some have nicknamed ClearLift treatment “the lunchtime lift” because it combines a fast treatment time with rapid results.

Who should get a DyeVL Treatment?
Anyone who desires to improve the uneven skin texture can be great candidates for this noninvasive procedure. Skin rejuvenation with the Dye VL™ can be done on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms and legs and much more.
What does it feel like?
DyeVL can get warm, but we have a cooled hand piece, so when it gets warm, we run the cooled tip for a bit to cool the area down.
Most clients can tolerate this treatment without topical anesthetic, but individuals who are more sensitive and experiencing “hot pinch” or a “snapping” feeling may prefer to have the skin numbed 40 min before treatment by a topical lidocaine application.
What can I expect after my treatment?
Most clients can return to work the same day and resume to normal activities immediately after treatment.
Will my skin peel after DyeVL?
Typically, no, you will not peel or blister. Your skin may be a bit red and some people experience a small amount of puffiness.
What can I expect my skin to look like after DyeVL?
Your areas that we target will turn darker before turning lighter. Sometimes these shed within a week, sometimes it takes a few weeks.
How many sessions will it take?
Some pigmentation and broken capillaries can be treated in as little as one session, others take up to 6 sessions. Sessions are spaced 3-6 weeks apart.
Is DyeVL Safe?
This treatment is very safe for the skin with no long-term health hazards from light used in the Harmony XL DyeVL.
Acne CLEAR SKIN Laser Treatment
Acne Clear Skin by Alma Lasers, Harmony XLPRO platform is the first technology to combine a non-ablative laser with simultaneous contact cooling to treat all forms of acne vulgaris including papules, pustules, and nodules, while also achieving a gentle rejuvenating effect, diminishing the appearance of acne scars by stimulating collagen renewal.
How does it work?
The non-ablative laser works by raising temperature of the treatment area in a controlled manner while penetrating into deeper layers of the skin. This thermal effect targets the sebaceous glands to destroy the ‘P.acnes bacteria’ and effectively reduce sebum production, and this is done without damaging the outer skin tissue or epidermis.
The laser delivers non-ablative laser light, scientifically tailored to cause the destruction of unhealthy skin infiltrates, bacteria and micro organisms. Simultaneous contact cooling protects the skin, reducing pain and allowing for safer and more effective treatment.
Once the skin is prepared, we can add on the use of our vacuum-assisted Hydrafacial system to suction and extract the sebaceous material from the pores.
The treatment is suitable for all skin types, has no side effects and achieves a smoother complexion with lasting effect.
Is it painful?
The hand-piece works by combining multiple mechanisms, non-ablative laser light and contact cooling, in a coordinated sequence to deliver an effective treatment while keeping the patient comfortable. Hydrafacial is a painless procedure.
How many treatments will I require?
The course of 5 sessions, one treatment every 2 weeks, and maintenance treatment every month is recommended until the desired result is achieved.

Venus VivaMD
Venus VivaTM MD is a non-surgical system with 2 applicators: one for skin resurfacing and one for wrinkle reduction*. The Venus VivaTM MD applicator comes with two tip options with small pins that safely deliver energy through the skin’s surface. This creates tiny wounds, which the body then works to heal naturally. This process is what repairs signs of damage seen on the surface of the skin. The DiamondPolarTM applicator also uses heat to naturally boost collagen production, something that slows down with age. This helps to restore a younger-looking appearance.

If you have excessive hair on the treatment area, shave it beforehand. It also helps to be prepared with information about your medical history—the technician will likely ask about it.

You will feel tiny pins on your skin followed by a little zap. Your face will then feel warm, like a sunburn.
Will it be painful?Venus VivaTM MD treatments may be slightly uncomfortable, but not painful. You’ll feel intense heat, similar to the feeling of sunburn, and your face will look red right after the treatment. For more aggressive treatments, you may get a topical numbing cream to reduce any discomfort.

Is there downtime after the treatment? / How long is recovery time?Yes, but only for 24 hours post-treatment (or up to 5 days for more aggressive treatments), unlike lasers or other treatments where recovery or downtime lasts up to 10 days. Your skin will be red and for the first 24 hours, you will not be allowed to apply or rub anything on your skin, including water or sweat (so no hot yoga or any other exercise that will make you perspire).

But avoid rigorous exercise and hot baths or massages on the treatment area for the first 2 days after your session. Make sure to keep your skin clean and protected from the sun.

Do I need to do anything after my treatment?If your skin feels hot, you can use a fan to cool it down. Avoid touching or scratching the treatment area. Do not put lotion, makeup, or anything else on your skin, including water, for 24 hours. After 24 hours, you should apply sunscreen (at least SPF 30), preferably one without chemicals.
