We’re proud of our Harmony XL cosmetic laser. We share many of its competitive advantages on this blog and encourage industry professionals to see it for themselves in live demonstrations. We’ve even been known to place the Harmony XL against other cosmetic lasers in side-by-side comparisons such as the Alma Lasers Challenge.  In this blog and the series to follow, however, we’d like to brag about something else. It’s a topic near to our hearts and even more important than our product line – our customers.

Recently we posed the question, “Can a Cosmetic Laser Help Breast Cancer Survivors?” We asked this question as we began to announce the efforts of the Alma Community Network in helping breast cancer survivors this October. As medical professionals know, radiation therapists routinely mark patients with tattoos in order to accurately target the treatment area. This tattoo can become a constant reminder of the experience long after therapy is complete and the cancer has been defeated. So in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Alma Community network will help qualified* breast cancer survivors find a local provider offering laser tattoo removal – free of charge. We have to say, the many customers who jumped at the opportunity to put their cosmetic laser to work and participate in this endeavor touched us deeply.

Dr. Ed Zimmerman, an Alma Community Network provider and Alma luminary in Las Vegas, NV had this to say about the initiative:

“The number of family and friends we have that have been affected by breast cancer continues to grow almost daily. No one can know what these people have gone through, no matter how much we empathize. We can’t fix it or make it go away, but we can do (and are proud to do) this little part.”

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. After all, Well Being through Technology is the cornerstone of our cosmetic laser technology, our commitment and our company. So from all of us at Alma Lasers to Dr. Zimmerman and his team, we say thank you.

Consumers can reach Dr. Zimmerman at Main Line: 702-509-7380, 8930 West Sunset Road Suite 140, Las Vegas, NV 89148.

Sometimes cosmetic lasers can seem like magical machines. After all, the right cosmetic laser in the hands of a talented professional can remove years of sun damage, decrease skin laxity and return someone’s youthful glow. Obviously, cosmetic lasers and the industry professionals who master them can do a lot to improve a person’s sense of well being. And you should know that starting October 1^st participating Alma Community Network locations are taking their cosmetic lasers and skills to a whole new level of service.

Here’s the story: radiation therapists routinely mark patients with tattoos in order to accurately target treatment areas. The tattoo remains even when treatment is complete and the cancer is defeated. In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Alma Community network will help qualified* breast cancer survivors remove these tattoos, and the memories they may trigger, through local Declare Your Freedom providers offering laser tattoo removal free of charge.

It’s a big undertaking, as you might imagine. An immense amount of time goes into coordinating a project of this size. Furthermore, the many Alma Community Network locations are providing the radiation tattoo removal service at no charge. So pardon us, for a moment, as we brag about another partner we’re very proud of: SONA, Newport News and SONA, Virginia Beach.

SONA has served the Virginia community for a number of years and both of these locations embraced the Declare Your Freedom project with the same enthusiasm and passion they bring to the aesthetic laser industry all year round. Hollie Lucas, Center Manager, said:

“We are participating in this program because we would like to do anything we can for women that have been through so much. Anything we can do to relive the memory of what they have been through is important to us.”

From all of us at Alma Lasers to SONA, we say thank you. It’s an honor and our privilege to be your partner.

SONA MedSpa of Virginia Beach is located at 477 Viking Dr., Ste. 340 Virginia Beach, VA 23452 and SONA Sona MedSpa of Newport News is located at 827 Diligence Dr., Ste. 206, Newport News, VA 23606. Either location can be reached by calling 866-GET-SONA.
