Rebuild your skin from the surface down
The Harmony XL Pro's fractional Erbium laser remodels damaged tissue and stimulates collagen — softening acne and surgical scars, fine lines, sun damage, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. CO2-level results with a fraction of the downtime, guided by Ashley Sutton, FNP‑MSN.
Micro-injuries, macro renewal
The iPixel handpiece delivers the Erbium laser in a fractional grid — treating thousands of pixel-sized columns of skin while leaving the tissue between them intact. Those untouched bridges dramatically speed healing, while the treated columns trigger your skin's full repair response: old, damaged tissue is remodeled and fresh collagen is built in its place.
The Erbium beam is split into a pixel grid — thousands of micro-columns treated, healthy bridges left intact between them.
Each column triggers the skin's full healing cascade — damaged tissue is cleared and remodeled from within.
Fresh collagen and elastin fill in over the following weeks — texture smooths, pores refine, scars soften.
Alma's Harmony XL Pro — the industry's workhorse
Alma Lasers is one of the world's leading medical aesthetics manufacturers, and the Harmony XL Pro is its flagship multi-application platform — trusted in top dermatology clinics and medspas worldwide. One system, dozens of FDA-cleared applications, each delivered through a purpose-built handpiece.
For ablative resurfacing, that means the iPixel Erbium handpiece: hospital-grade fractional precision with adjustable depth and density, so your provider dials the treatment to your skin — not the other way around. The same platform powers our ClearLift, ClearSkin, and IPL treatments, which is what makes true layered plans possible.
One laser, many concerns
Ten days that earn you ten years
Days 1–3. The skin is hot, swollen, and weeping — the same as a deep sunburn. You stay home, keep the occlusive ointment on, and sleep elevated. Nothing about this stage is subtle, and everyone is surprised by it.
Days 4–7. Swelling drops, the surface dries, and peeling begins. Do not pick. Underneath, keratinocytes are migrating across the treated area from the untouched columns of skin the fractional pattern left behind.
Days 8–14. New skin, bright pink and tight. Makeup is usually fine by day ten. Strict sun avoidance from here — pigment that returns now is pigment we cannot undo.
Months 2–6. The real result. Collagen remodeling continues for six months, so texture, scarring, and fine lines keep improving long after the redness has gone. We photograph at three and six months, not at two weeks.
Questions, answered honestly
Expect redness and a sandpaper texture for several days as the treated columns heal — far shorter than traditional CO2 resurfacing. Most clients are comfortable in public within a few days and see full radiance build over weeks.
Topical numbing is applied first; most clients describe warmth and prickling. Your comfort is monitored throughout the session.
Lighter texture concerns often improve in 1–2 sessions; deeper scarring typically takes a series of 3–5 spaced about a month apart. Your consultation includes an honest count and a full quote.
Ablative (iPixel) removes micro-columns of tissue for maximum remodeling with some downtime. Non-ablative (ClearLift) works beneath intact skin with zero downtime but gentler results. Many plans layer both.
Arrive with clean skin and avoid sun exposure, tanning, and retinoids for the week prior. Plan your calendar around the healing window — most clients book Thursday or Friday and are presentable by Monday.
What to expect
Come a few minutes early, settle in, and share your goals — every ablative resurfacing visit starts with a short, unhurried check-in so the session fits you, not a template.
Your provider tailors the work to your body and comfort as you go — speak up anytime; adjusting is part of the craft.
You leave with honest aftercare guidance — what to expect tonight, and how to keep the benefit building between visits.
One roof, every discipline
Clinical services run under the direction of Ashley Sutton, FNP-MSN — spa comfort with medical standards behind it.
