To make sure every provider is set up for success, our process includes:

This way, every injector who joins Aluma is part of a community built on trust, proven skill, and a shared standard of excellence - while still celebrating individuality and passion for aesthetics.

Our founders wanted more for aesthetic injectors.

Led by Supervising Physician, Dr. Michael Lafkas, our founders recognized the need for healthy collaboration in the medical aesthetics community. With over 35 years of combined experience, they noticed common trends within the culture - unfair pay structures, competitive environments and a lack of client safety protocols. Tired of greedy medspa platforms, they joined forces to put the power (and $$) back into the hands of injectors.

ALUMA INJECTORS, ON AVERAGE, KEEP OVER 32% OF REVENUE AS PRE-TAX INCOME. THIS RANKS IN THE TOP 15% OF ALL US MED SPAS.
