Skin Tightening

NIR Skin Tightening is an exciting innovation in the world of skincare.
Alma Harmony XL Pro uses a high-powered light source called NIR (Near Infrared) to safely and effectively heat the deeper layers of the skin.
This deep thermal stimulation encourages new collagen growth and visibly improves skin laxity.

Just like an iron smooths out fabric wrinkles, NIR technology smooths and tightens relaxed skin, restoring tone and firmness.

Even with a healthy lifestyle and a good skincare routine, natural skin ageing begins around the age of thirty, when collagen production slows down.
NIR technology helps counteract this process with a painless, non-invasive treatment and no downtime.

The result? An immediate, natural lifting effect, with firmer and more toned skin — perfect even as a one-shot treatment before a special event!

NIR technology gently heats the subcutaneous tissues to a temperature between 40°C and 42°C, stimulating circulation and encouraging the natural production of collagen.
This soft laser delivers controlled thermal energy deep into the skin, improving elasticity and firming relaxed skin.

The handpiece includes an integrated cooling system to ensure maximum comfort throughout the treatment.
It is safe for all skin types and can be performed all year round, even on tanned skin..

A NIR Skin Tightening session typically lasts between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the areas treated.
During the treatment, you will feel a pleasant, warming sensation.
After the session, the skin may appear slightly red, but this fades quickly, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately.

Results are visible immediately after the first session, with skin appearing instantly firmer and more toned.
For optimal results, we recommend a course of 3–6 sessions, spaced about 2–4 weeks apart.
Periodic maintenance treatments help prolong and maximise results over time.

Additionally, NIR can be used as a one-off treatment to enhance your appearance before a special event!

Combination with ClearLift

NIR skin tightening and ClearLift laser treatment work in perfect synergy to improve skin tone, firmness, and overall texture.
While NIR uses deep dermal heating to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin, ClearLift penetrates deeper into the dermis to regenerate and rejuvenate from within.
Combining these treatments enhances both immediate tightening and long-term skin rejuvenation, for visibly smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.
