Effective Dielectric Heating
Radiofrequency (RF) energy is transmitted directly to the tissue, causing rapid rotation of its water molecules.
Deep Unipolar
Focused, safe and deep heating of tissue at various depths within the skin.
Cold Shear Wave & Hot Ultrasound
Alma Accent features patented2 Cold Ultrasound Shear Wave technology to selectively target fat cells, while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. The shear wave vibrations disrupt fat cell membranes leading to gradual breakdown and release of stored fat. Damaged fat cells are then disposed of the body through the lymphatic systems. Accent also offers hot ultrasound technology which generates compressive ultrasonic waves that achieve a high level of cavitation breaking down local fat deposits thermally. Practitioners may choose to work in either shear (cold) or compression (hot) ultrasound modes using the same handpiece or acombination of both modes for maximum results.
Powerful Impedance Matching
With a power capacity of up to 300 watts and minimal energy loss through Impedance Matching, Alma Accent offers maximum power for every treatment. When RF energy is transmitted to tissue, the bodys electrical resistance causes power to reflect back to the energy source. With the highest peak power in the market, Accent effectively overcomes the bodys impedance, reducing reflection and allowing maximum RF energy to be absorbed by the target tissue.
Focused Depth Control
Alma Accents new Depth Control technology allows you to control the precise depth of treatment, with focused heating within the relevant layers of tissue. With variable depth control, practitioners have the flexibility and precision to treat the target area at the specific depth needed for optimal results. Deep and superficial treatment approaches may also be combined for fully customized treatment, depending on the area being treated, the skin type/thickness and the indication. Or, they may be used for combination work on the same area to achieve enhanced results.
Microplasma
Using unique microplasma technology, the Accent Pixel RF module provides skin resurfacing treatment by both ablating and heating the skin. Fractional ablative microplasma is a gentler energy source that significantly reduces the risk of Post- Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). Through controlled perforation and focused energy delivery, Pixel RF treats the affected area while leaving surrounding healthy tissue intact. This allows the skin to heal faster as the epidermis is regenerated, yielding improved results with minimal risk and reduced downtime.
Effective Dielectric Heating
Alma Accent features Dielectric Heating- a unique mechanism whereby high radiofrequency (RF) energy is transmitted directly to the tissue, causing rapid rotation of its water molecules (RF frequency of 40.68 MHz, sending 40.68 million transmissions to the tissue per second). This rotation generates friction which produces powerful and effective heat. Because skin is composed mostly of water,the heating from this mechanism induces volumetric contraction within the skin- contracting existing fibers and stimulating the formation of new collagen while improving its thickness and alignment. A high RF frequency allows for deep, homogenous heating which produces uniform results.
Impact (Trans Epidermal Delivery)
To maintain and further extend the clinical results achieved via RF and ultrasound, the patented3 Alma Impact module employs ultrasound technology to deliver active ingredients beyond the epidermaldermal junction. Once the skin has been perforated via a microplasma roller (Pixel RF), the Impact module emits intermittent positive and negative waves of acoustic pressure, pushing the topical agents through the micro-channels. The oscillating acoustic vibrations create a push and pull effect within the channels, releasing the buildup of intra-cellular fluid and allowing the active ingredients to reach the targeted tissue depth.
Cooled Vacuum-Assisted Fractional RF
Latest Innovations
Alma Accent features new stationary handpieces that operate at a higher RF power and utilize a cooled vacuum mechanism to maximize treatment efficiency. The vacuum technology isolates the treatment area, capturing the tissue fluids within a single defined area, while contact cooling protects the skin and reduces pain. RF energy is then used to produce thermal shock to the tissue, resulting in focused, concentrated treatment. This unique combination reduces treatment time and number of sessions while yielding more powerful results.
INDICATED USES
- BODY AND FACE CONTOURING
Alma Accent uses combined technologies to eliminate excess fat and loose skin, visibly improving the shape and contours of the face and body. Cold ultrasound shear waves selectively destroy fat cells while UniPolar RF accelerates their metabolism for fast lymphatic drainage.
BODY AND FACE CONTOURING HANDPIECES
UltraFace Handpiece –
Combines shear wave and compression ultrasound technologies for contouring of the face. An ultrasound transducer is fixed onto a sonotrode applicator which delivers energy deep beneath the skin.
UltraBody Handpiece –
combines shear wave and compression ultrasound technologies with higher power emission for contouring of the body.
UniForm Handpiece –
combines high energy UniPolar RF technology with a detachable rotating massage ring to deliver deep dermal heating while increasing circulation within subcutaneous tissue.
- SKIN TIGHTENING
Challenging age-related skin imperfections including wrinkles, fine lines, uneven skin tone and skin laxity can be significantly improved with Alma Accent. The treatments effectively address existing indications while also helping to bolster the skin against future aging.
SKIN TIGHTENING HANDPIECES
CoaxiPolar Handpiece
Creates local, superficial dermal heating in delicate areas with real-time monitoring of skin temperature for skin tightening.
UniLarge Handpiece
Uses Unipolar RF energy to contract collagen fibers within the skin and stimulate the formation of new collagen for skin tightening.
UniFace Handpiece
A Unipolar RF handpiece designed especially for treatment of the face for skin tightening.
Periorbital Handpiece
Tightens lax skin around the eyes for skin tightening.
Tune Body Handpiece
Vacuum-assisted fractional RF for skin tightening of the body.
Tune Face Handpiece
Vacuum-assisted fractional RF for skin tightening of the face.
- CELLULITE
Enlarged individual fat deposits beneath the skin that push up against the underlying connective tissue create the uneven skin surface and dimpled appearance of cellulite. Alma Accent employs a combination of RF energy and mechanical massage to increase metabolism of adipose tissue- reducing fat cell volume, stimulating lymphatic drainage and visibly smoothing the texture of the skin.
CELLULITE HANDPIECES
UniBody Handpiece
combines high energy UniPolar RF technology with a mechanical applicator to deliver deep dermal heating while increasing metabolism within subcutaneous tissue, improving the appearance of cellulite.
UniLarge Handpiece
Uses Unipolar RF energy to speed up metabolism of adipose tissue, visibly smoothing the skin.
- SKIN RESURFACING/REJUVENATION
Uneven skin tone, stretch marks, superficial pigmentation and coarse, uneven skin texture are smoothed out and balanced using focused microplasma RF technology. The addition of Impact technology offers a compound solution for maximally effective skin repair and aesthetic enhancement.
