Photofacial AFT is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that harnesses the power of advanced light technology to address common skin concerns like pigmentation and redness. AFT, which stands for Advanced Fluorescence Technology, is Alma’s patented and highly sophisticated version of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). It works by delivering controlled pulses of light to the skin, which are absorbed by two primary targets: the melanin in brown spots and the hemoglobin in red spots.
The AFT technology converts unused light into usable energy, which makes the treatment safer, more effective, and more comfortable than traditional IPL. By targeting and breaking down these imperfections, Photofacial AFT provides a powerful solution for those seeking to reduce sun damage, rosacea, and an overall uneven complexion.
An AFT Photofacial is a comprehensive treatment that offers a wide range of benefits for achieving a clear, luminous, and even skin tone.
Reduces Sun Spots & Pigmentation: The light energy is precisely absorbed by the melanin in sun spots, age spots, and freckles, causing them to break down and fade away, resulting in a more uniform complexion.
Minimizes Redness & Rosacea: By targeting the hemoglobin in broken capillaries and areas of diffused redness, the treatment helps to reduce the visible signs of rosacea and give your skin a calmer, more even tone.
Evens Skin Tone & Texture: The photofacial not only clears away imperfections but also stimulates a mild collagen boost, which helps to improve your skin’s overall texture and tone for a smoother, more refined appearance.
Safe & Comfortable: AFT technology is designed to deliver a gentler, more comfortable experience than traditional IPL, with a cooling system that protects the skin’s surface and ensures your safety.
No Downtime: This is a major advantage of the AFT Photofacial. You can return to your normal daily activities immediately after your session.
Proper preparation is crucial for a safe and effective photofacial.
Pause Actives: Stop retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, or exfoliants at least 1 week before.
No Self-Tanners: Avoid tanning creams/sprays for at least 2 weeks.
Clean Skin: Arrive makeup-free.
Following these aftercare instructions will ensure a smooth recovery and beautiful results.
Sun Protection: Apply SPF 30+ daily; skin may be more light-sensitive.
Manage Treated Spots: Darkening of pigmented spots for 3–7 days is normal before they flake off. Do not scratch or pick.
Avoid Heat: Skip hot tubs, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours to minimize swelling.
