Article Abstract
The Alma Hybrid™ not only bridges the gap between traditional ablative and non-ablative laser treatments but also introduces enhanced transdermal delivery through the Impact Handpiece, utilising ultrasound technology. This integration allows for the effective treatment of a wide range of dermatological concerns, including scar revision, skin rejuvenation, and resurfacing (Arellano-Huacuja, 2023; Arellano et al, 2023b). This article aims to provide an examination of the clinical evidence supporting the Alma Hybrid™ system, with a focus on its integration into treatment plans for aesthetic and dermatological practices. Through an analysis of patient case studies and a review of the literature, this paper will demonstrate how the Alma Hybrid™ can be employed to enhance patient outcomes, particularly in challenging cases such as hypertrophic and atrophic scars. Furthermore, we will
explore the system’s efficacy across diverse patient demographics, with an emphasis on its safety profile in treating different Fitzpatrick skin types.
