Introduction to Alma ClearLift Laser Treatment
When looking for aesthetic improvements, your results are only as good as your technology. The Alma ClearLift Laser is an award-winning applicator used with the proven Harmony XL Pro laser workstation.
The ClearLift laser uses Q-Switched technology to shatter skin imperfections caused by age, acne, the sun, and so much more. Tattoo removal and hair removal are among some of the additional benefits of the Alma ClearLife laser. The ClearLift laser with the Harmony XL Pro has nearly 70 FDA-cleared indications.
Benefits of Clearlift Laser Treatments
The benefits of Clearlift Laser treatments range from removing pesky skin tags to healing scar tissue. Here are just a few of the many Alma ClearLift benefits:
- Mole and freckle removal
- Spider vein removal
- Smooth and even uneven skin tone caused by rosacea, keratoses, and café-au-lait spots
- Improvement in current acne and removal of old acne scars
- Hemangioma (red mole) removal
- Scar tissue removal
The ClearLift Laser can remove non-cancerous tumors found on the skin, break up painful cysts, and restore hyperpigmentation.
Fine lines and wrinkles are smoothed with the ClearLift laser and blood flow is increased to help with muscle relaxation and pain relief. Tattoo and hair removal are among some of the additional Alma ClearlIft benefits.
How ClearLift works
ClearLift uses Q-Switched laser technology. Q-Switched stands for quality-switched which simply means the laser uses a pulsating laser beam rather than a continuous one. Q-Switched lasers are better able to break apart tissue as well as stimulate healing by gently aggravating the layers of skin or scar tissue.
The specific type of laser used in the ClearLift device is called Nd: YAG or YAG for short. YAG lasers focus and target changes in pigment found in the skin. YAG lasers are safe to use on all skin types and are popular lasers to use for tattoo removal.
Combining the YAG laser with Q-Switched technology, the Clearlift laser works by carefully breaking up (or ablating) uneven skin tone and pigment as well as stimulating healing with the pulsating laser beam.

Behind the Science
Science & Safety
YAG Laser Treatment for Removing Melanocytic Nevi Ann Dermatol.
A study of 2,064 Korean patients with melanocytic nevi (dark moles) were treated with a Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser over a six week period. After only one treatment, 70% of the moles were completely removed. The remaining 30% saw complete resolution after three sessions. There were also fewer patients who remained with a hollow scar from the removal which is often seen with other laser treatments making the Q-Switched Nd;YAG laser treatment a safe and effective treatment option for dark moles.
Treatment of Hori’s Nevus with the Q‐Switched Nd:YAG Laser Dermatologic Surgery
Hori’s Nevus are flat dark lesions typically found on the high cheekbone area. A 2001 study explores the use of Q-Switched Nd:YAG treatments to clear up this uneven skin tone. 66 participants were treated up to seven times with good results. After at least three treatments, 50% of patients had “good to excellent” results.
Laser Skin Resurfacing with the Q‐switched Nd:YAG Laser Dermatologic Surgery
A small study of 11 participants showed benefits of Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser treatments when addressing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes (crow’s feet). 9 out of 11 participants found improvement in fine lines around the eye. Treatments were felt to be safe with quick healing and minimal redness at treatment sites.
The Q-Switched Nd:YAG Laser Effectively Treats Tattoos Arch Dermatol.
When looking for tattoo removal benefits of Q-Switched Nd:YAG lasers, a study of 25 participants found the laser to be extremely effective at removing black ink with up to 95% ink removal after only four treatments. However, colored inks were not as effectively removed. There were no side effects or pigment changes noted after treatment.
