The effects of the treatment
The Nd: Yag 1064 laser treatment of the ALMA Harmony PRO is based on the thermal, controlled damage to the dilated blood vessel, causing it to close. The main indications for the use of therapy are erythema, rosacea, dilated capillaries (spider veins).
What does the treatment look like?

Time of treatment
The treatment lasts from 30 to 60 minutes.
The period of convalescence
There may be slight redness or swelling shortly after the treatment. The skin gives the impression of being very stretched, but usually it does not result in the patient’s exclusion from normal daily activities.
