Hybrid Lift - CO2 Laser + Non-ablative Laser
Alma Hybrid is an advanced laser system used in the treatment of common skin issues such as deep wrinkles and fine lines, loss of firmness, age spots, and other signs of skin aging, as well as scars of various origins. Based on the latest research, the hybrid laser is the only device of its kind that utilizes the 3 most powerful and effective technologies currently available on the market to create a completely new and innovative concept of skin rejuvenation and regeneration.
Until now, laser devices available on the market for medical and aesthetic purposes created microchannels in the skin, which had ablative or non-ablative characteristics, thus limiting themselves to one effect. The safe, precise, and versatile hybrid laser offers benefits from both lasers simultaneously. Since both laser wavelengths have their own optimal impact on the skin, the treatments are very effective.

The skin of the face is particularly exposed to external factors such as UV radiation, pollution, and temperature changes. All of this leads to its weakening, loss of firmness, and the appearance of the first signs of aging. One of the aesthetic medicine treatments that effectively restores a youthful appearance to the skin is hybrid laser facial lifting with the use of Alma Hybrid laser.
How does hybrid lifting work?
The key element of the Alma Hybrid laser is the innovative HyGrid hybrid applicator, which allows for the desired combination of CO2 ablative and non-ablative methods on selected areas of the skin during a single treatment session.
Thanks to this, it is possible to reap the benefits of both lasers during one session, leading to even better treatment outcomes. Hybrid™ combines both technologies in a unique way, as through the special HyGrid™ function, it is possible to act on the skin with two laser beams simultaneously. Furthermore, HyGrid allows for the individual selection of the optimal CO2 ablative and non-ablative ratios in a matrix with precise proportions, maximizing the impact of each laser wave. Treatments performed this way are highly effective because each technology has its optimal effect on the skin, allowing for achieving spectacular results.
By delivering two laser beams side by side using an advanced galvanometric scanner, HyGrid enables exceptional fractional treatment:
- Ablative fractional CO2 laser works superficially and vaporizes old layers of the epidermis, making way for new, fresh skin,
- Non-ablative fractional fiber laser creates deeply coagulated microthermal zones in the dermis, heating the deep layers of the skin, rejuvenating and firming it from within.
The Alma hybrid laser is classified as a resurfacing laser. It can be customized for treating superficial, deep, or all skin layers. Because the laser combines ablative and non-ablative technologies, it can be used to treat a wide range of skin problems, including those related to aging, sun damage, and other factors.
Effects of hybrid facial lifting:
The treatment is completely safe, and its effects include:
- Laser removal of dynamic and static wrinkles - The treatment effectively smooths both shallow dynamic lines and deeper wrinkles, making the skin look younger and more radiant.
- Improvement of facial contour - Skin firming and stimulation of collagen production help restore clearer facial contours, preventing sagging.
- Removal of acne, chickenpox, burn, surgical, or injury scars - The treatment smooths and flattens scars, improving their structure and skin tone, making them less visible.
- Increased skin firmness - Intense skin stimulation leads to increased elasticity, making it tighter and more elastic.
- Deep collagen remodeling - The treatment stimulates the skin to regenerate and rebuild collagen fibers, making it more resistant to aging processes.
- Skin lifting - The skin is noticeably tightened and lifted, giving the face a younger, more rested appearance.
- Removal of deep pigmentation and melasma - The treatment effectively lightens and evens out the skin tone, reducing dark spots and discoloration.
- Skin brightening and improvement of skin tone - The skin regains a healthy glow, looks fresh and radiant, further emphasizing its rejuvenated appearance.

Removing scars with the OScar hybrid laser is the most effective method for treating all types of scars, from acne, through injuries, to surgical scars.
Why is the hybrid laser so effective in scar removal?
The success of scar treatment depends on the effective penetration of lasers into the dermis layer of the skin. So far, fractional lasers available on the market for medical and aesthetic purposes have created microchannels in the skin that have ablative or non-ablative characteristics, limiting them to one effect. The hybrid laser enables exceptional fractional processing. The ablative CO2 laser vaporizes tissue and creates ablative microzones with coagulated edges. Meanwhile, the non-ablative fiber laser creates deeply coagulated microthermal zones in the dermis, leaving the epidermis intact. This combination results in deep tissue regeneration, synthesis of new collagen, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and scar remodeling along with superficial restoration of skin structure and color.
By combining the wavelengths of the ablative CO2 laser and the non-ablative laser, various parameters can be adjusted, including penetration depth, coagulation width, and density. This allows each treatment to be tailored to address the specific scar issues of the patient.
Effects of laser scar removal with the hybrid laser:
- Scar flattening and smoothing - tissue regeneration makes scars less visible, and their surface smoother.
- Restoration of natural skin color - scars lighten and blend better with the surrounding skin.
- Stimulation of collagen synthesis - the skin becomes more elastic and resistant to damage.
- Deep scar remodeling - restructuring of the skin at the dermal level.
- Increased skin elasticity and tension - rebuilding collagen fibers improves tissue quality in the treated area.
- Effectiveness in reducing various types of scars - the therapy works on acne scars, trauma scars, burn scars, and postoperative scars.
Thanks to the unique hybrid laser technology, the OScar hybrid laser achieves spectacular results, effectively reducing scars and improving skin quality in a precise, safe, and tailored way to the individual needs of the patient.
OScar Procedure - Advanced Skin Regeneration Therapy
The OScar Procedure is an advanced method for reducing stretch marks, based on the synergistic action of two laser technologies. It combines the ablative CO₂ laser and the non-ablative 1570 nm laser, allowing for simultaneous removal of damaged epidermis and intensive regeneration of the deeper layers of the skin. This combination therapy is effective in reducing all types of stretch marks, regardless of their color or age.
How does the hybrid laser technology work?
The ablative CO₂ laser precisely removes the superficial layer of the skin, stimulating regenerative processes and smoothing the structure of stretch marks. The non-ablative 1570 nm laser penetrates deep into the dermis, stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. The ability to adjust parameters such as penetration depth, coagulation width, and pulse density allows for individual settings tailored to the advancement of stretch marks and the patient's skin type.
Effects of the treatment on stretch marks:
- Reduced visibility of stretch marks - the skin becomes more uniform in color and texture
- Stimulation of collagen and elastin production - the skin rebuilds and becomes firmer
- Improved skin elasticity and tension - the skin is more elastic and smooth
- Texture smoothing - stretch marks become less noticeable to the touch
- Long-term skin regeneration - gradual improvement in appearance even months after the procedure
Stretch marks are permanent skin damage, so to achieve maximum effects, a series of 3-5 treatments is recommended at intervals of 4-6 weeks. The gradual stimulation of the skin for regeneration allows for long-lasting and natural results.
The OScar Procedure is one of the most effective methods for treating stretch marks, providing comprehensive skin regeneration and long-lasting effects without extended recovery time.
Hybrid lifting treatment is an excellent solution for the body. The issues of sagging skin, stretch marks, or uneven skin tone affect many people, and hybrid body lifting allows for their effective reduction.
Hybrid lifting can be performed on various body areas:
- neck and décolletage - reduction of wrinkles and skin sagging,
- hands - reduction of wrinkles, discoloration, and skin sagging,
- abdomen - reduction of skin sagging and stretch marks after pregnancy or weight loss,
- thighs and buttocks - improved firmness and reduction of stretch marks,
- arms - smoothing and firming of the skin in hard-to-sculpt areas.
Hybrid laser lifting combines three sources of energy (CO2 ablative laser, non-ablative laser, and ultrasound) which, when used together, lead to even better treatment results. Hybrid™ combines all three technologies uniquely because with the special HyGrid™ function, it is possible to act on the skin with two laser beams simultaneously, and then for spectacular effects, add IMPACT™ ultrasound therapy. Treatments performed in this way are highly effective because each of the technologies has its optimal impact on the skin, allowing for achieving spectacular results.
