Over time, as we age and our skin is exposed to the skin, it’s very possible for the skin to lose its natural youthful glow. Laser treatment has long been used to treat a range of skin issues but restoring a glow to the skin and has been an issue since lasers are either too deep or too shallow to effectively remove imperfections such as sun spots and fine lines. Thankfully a new type of laser treatment known as “Halo” has addressed this problem.
Halo enables you to get the benefits of more aggressive dermal rejuvenation but without the downtime. This is a huge benefit since up to now patients had to choose between great results with a lot of downtime or marginal results with little downtime. Thanks to Halo, this is no longer the case.
What is Halo Skin Rejuvenation?
Halo skin rejuvenation refers to a laser treatment that uses a combination of ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to target both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. It’s designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity with less downtime than traditional resurfacing lasers.
The Halo laser is by Sciton and is known as the first hybrid fractional laser—meaning it delivers both types of laser energy in the same treatment session. Here’s how it works:
- Ablative laser: Removes the outer layers of damaged skin, triggering new skin growth.
- Non-ablative laser: Heats the deeper layers of skin to stimulate collagen production and promote long-term rejuvenation.
The Benefits of Halo Skin Rejuvenation
- Give your skin a healthy and youthful glow: Halo stimulates natural collagen production and renews the skin’s surface, leaving you with a radiant, refreshed complexion that looks naturally vibrant.
- Get rid of discoloration and sun damage: By targeting sunspots, uneven pigmentation, and other signs of UV damage, Halo evens out your skin tone for a clearer, more uniform appearance.
- Correct large pores: Halo tightens and refines enlarged pores by stimulating deeper layers of the skin, helping to smooth your complexion and create a more polished look.
- Improve your skin texture: The treatment resurfaces rough patches and smooths out irregularities, making your skin feel softer and appear more even.
- Treat visible signs of aging: Halo reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and early skin laxity, helping to restore a firmer, more youthful look over time.
Halo Skin Rejuvenation FAQs
Below are some of the most common questions people have about Halo laser treatment.
Am I a good candidate for Halo Skin Rejuvenation?
If you have skin damage and imperfections such as oversized pores, discoloration or fine aging lines then you’re likely a good candidate for Halo. The persona administering the treatment will ensure that you are beforehand so you don’t have to worry.
Is Halo Skin Rejuvenation painful?
Halo is generally very well tolerated since a topical anaesthetic is used prior to treatment so there’s very little discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation of Halo treatment as feeling warm with some very minor pricks to the skin in between but few would describe it as a painful treatment.
How many Halo Skin Rejuvenation treatments are required?
This will depend on what it is you want to achieve and how long it takes to achieve it. The great thing about Halo is you can choose exactly how you want to do the treatment. If you’d rather have fewer, more aggressive treatments then you can do this; or you can have a greater number of milder treatments over a longer period of time.
How long does Halo Skin Rejuvenation last?
The results of your Halo treatment will last for years rather than months but this is providing you always protect your skin from UV rays by using a good sunscreen.
