Alma Hybrid TED Impact™

Support Scalp and Skin Vitality

The Alma Hybrid TED Impact^™ treatment is a professional, non-invasive option designed to support both scalp and skin health.

Using Trans-Epidermal Delivery (TED) technology, it applies gentle acoustic sound waves and air pressure to temporarily increase the permeability of the skin’s surface, allowing targeted serums, such as exosome or booster formulations to be absorbed more effectively.

We often use TED Impact post Alma Hybrid C02 treatments for

Treatment time: 30 – 45 minutes

Downtime: None – the scalp or skin may appear slightly pink for a short time

Understanding How TED Impact^™ Works

The outermost layer of skin, known as the stratum corneum, acts as a natural barrier that protects against environmental exposure but also limits the absorption of topical products.

Alma’s TED Impact^™ technology uses a unique combination of ultrasonic acoustic sound waves and air pressure to create temporary micro-channels in this barrier layer without needles or thermal energy.

Through these channels, professional topical solutions such as exosomes or skin boosters can reach deeper layers of the epidermis where they can interact with the skin environment. This approach allows the clinician to:

Enhance hydration and comfort of the skin or scalp
Support barrier repair and overall tissue vitality
Provide a comfortable, non-invasive experience with minimal to no downtime

What to Expect

Preparation – Your clinician will cleanse and prepare the skin or scalp to remove buildup and ensure optimal absorption.

TED Impact^™ Technology – Gentle acoustic energy and air-pressure pulses are delivered in controlled movements across the treatment area, creating micro-pathways to enhance the absorption of professional serums.

Topical Infusion – Exosome or booster formulations are applied to support hydration, cellular communication, and surface renewal. Product choice is based on your individual goals and clinical assessment.

Finishing Step – The session concludes with protective finishing products to maintain comfort and balance.

Treatment Suitability: Assessment of your skin or scalp condition to determine TED Impact^™ or a combination approach is appropriate.

Risks and Expected Reactions: Discussion of potential side effects such as temporary redness, sensitivity, mild flaking, or scalp tenderness. Rare but possible risks such as irritation or infection will be outlined.

Downtime and Recovery: Explanation of typical post-treatment responses, including mild warmth or redness that usually settles within 24–48 hours.

Aftercare Guidance: Instructions on how to protect and care for your skin or scalp post-treatment, including avoiding active ingredients, sun exposure, and excessive heat.

Skincare and Home Routine: Recommendations for gentle, hydrating, and protective skincare to complement your in-clinic treatment.

This collaborative approach allows your clinician to tailor your treatment plan to your goals, comfort level, and medical considerations.

Treatment Options

Scalp-Focused
This option targets scalp balance and hydration. The combination of TED Impact^™ and topical boosters supports a healthy scalp environment, which plays an important role in hair vitality.
In some cases, your clinician may recommend a consultation with Dr Barney Gordon to discuss whether further medical assessment is appropriate.

Designed for individuals wanting to support overall skin hydration, radiance, and barrier strength. The treatment can be performed on the face, neck, or décolletage and is often discussed as part of a broader skin-health plan.
