HALO laser is a cutting-edge skin resurfacing option that uses dual wavelengths to rejuvenate the skin at multiple depths. By combining ablative and non-ablative laser technologies, HALO offers both surface and deep dermal rejuvenation, effectively targeting fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven skin texture. Patients benefit from the power of a hybrid fractional laser without the extended recovery time associated with traditional lasers, making HALO ideal for those seeking impactful results with minimal downtime.
Your aesthetic specialist will begin with a consultation to create a treatment plan personalized to your unique concerns and skin rejuvenation goals. The highly versatile HALO platform allows you to choose the intensity of your treatment while targeting specific conditions like acne scars, hyperpigmentation, or fine lines and wrinkles.
Before performing the HALO treatment, your provider will apply a topical anesthetic to ensure maximum comfort. The hybrid fractional laser is then used to create microscopic treatment zones on both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. This dual approach promotes healing and collagen production while minimizing disruption to healthy skin. The entire procedure takes 15-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area, with patients typically describing a mild warmth and tingling sensation.

Following a HALO laser treatment, patients may experience mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn. Over the first few days, microscopic epidermal necrotic debris (MENDS)—or dead skin tissue—naturally sheds, revealing fresh, healthy skin underneath. These side effects generally subside within 1-5 days, depending on the intensity of your treatment. Patients are encouraged to follow our aftercare recommendations for optimal healing and results, which may include using gentle skin care products and limiting sun exposure.
Most patients notice improvements within one week of treatment, with skin appearing brighter, smoother, and more even in tone and texture. As the skin heals, collagen production continues, leading to further enhancement over the following weeks. Results from HALO laser treatments are long-lasting, and periodic maintenance sessions may be scheduled to promote optimal skin health and radiance.
