Aluma<br />

<strong>Eye</strong> - Treatment Guidelines<br />

Courtesy of Michael Gold, MD and Phillipe Malet, MD<br />

<strong>Eye</strong> Settings<br />

Time: 1-2.5 seconds, Pulse level: 2-3, Vacuum: 1-2<br />

Begin at the lowest settings, increase settings to the highest level that remains comfortable for the patient 3 .<br />

Technique<br />

Position tip to overlap the previous pulse by 10%.<br />

Upper <strong>Eye</strong>lids<br />

When treating the upper eyelids, have the patient close their eyes. Position<br />

the Aluma <strong>Eye</strong> tip slightly above the eyelashes so as not to vacuum the<br />

eyelashes into the tip. Treat the entire area - from lash line up to the eyebrow.<br />

Since there is no hair removal concern with Aluma <strong>Eye</strong>, the eyebrow hair will<br />

not be affected.<br />

Under <strong>Eye</strong>s<br />

The under-eye area can be treated with the patient’s eyes open, avoiding the<br />

eyelashes. Under-eye treatment should include the entire area where bagging<br />

and wrinkles are noted.<br />

Periorbital Area (crow’s feet)<br />

<br />

The tip should be positioned longitudinally along the belly of the wrinkle.<br />

<strong>Eye</strong>s may be open or closed when treating this area.<br />
