Long-term sun exposure, active lifestyle and the wear and tear of everyday living results in visible signs of skin aging, including wrinkles, discoloration, scars and laxity. A fractional treatment, like HALO, allows the epidermis to heal quickly as long as the dermis remains intact. Ablative fractional resurfacing is a well-established treatment that vaporizes aged tissue with less thermal injury and mild to moderate levels of morbidity and downtime. The HALO hybrid fractional laser combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths delivered to the same microscopic treatment zone to maximize clinical results and minimize downtimes. HALO is safe and effective, while providing an enhanced patient experience.

​

HALO Benefits

• More comfortable than traditional fractional resurfacing

• Fast healing, patients back in make-up within 24 hours

• Low downtime, patients are able to go back to work within a couple of days

• No occlusive post-care

• Noticeable improvement within weeks

 

​

Patients can expect remarkable results in 1-2 treatments while older, non-hybrid technology often requires 5-6 treatments to demonstrate similar texture changes delivered from HALO in terms of pigment correction. The HALO patient experience is second-to-none: the treatment is extremely comfortable, only a topical anesthetic is recommended (no nerve blocks), and patients can apply makeup within 24 hours of the procedure.
