Self-confidence is intimately tied to how you feel about your appearance, and that includes your skin. When you want to enjoy better-looking skin, but you do not want or are willing to endure a lot of downtime to get it, the question becomes, “Is there a truly effective treatment to make my skin look good that doesn’t come with major downtime and a ton of discomfort?”
The answer is Yes, and one of our more popular treatments at our Larchmont office is Halo™ Laser. Our team can help you learn more about skin laser treatments.
In the past, you had to choose between a procedure that offered great results but required a lengthy recovery or a procedure with a fast recovery but marginal results. With Halo Hybrid Laser treatments you get the best of both!
The Halo laser eliminates years of accumulated skin damage by precisely targeting the right depth to effectively reach and correct the damage from sun exposure. Now with Halo, you get the best of both worlds: great results with minimal downtime.
Halo combines deep dermal rejuvenation with epidermal renewal for a highly effective synergistic effect. Get desired results without the downtime of more aggressive treatments. Halo by Sciton
Everyone’s skin is different. Everyone’s needs are different. Halo treatments can be precisely customized to fit your lifestyle and in Los Angeles, most people have schedules that don’t allow extended downtime.. Lighter treatments may only incur a day’s worth of redness. But…want to get some “wow” results? A more intense treatment will need just a few days of downtime.
Halo is a complete skin rejuvenation treatment in Los Angeles. You will see improvements in overall tone and texture in addition to significant removal of discoloration, reduction in fine lines*, reduced pore size, skin reflectivity, and glow.
What’s great about Halo is that you can choose how many treatments you want! Discuss with our clinicians your needs and you can choose to have one or two more aggressive treatments or have multiple treatments that are less aggressive and achieve a similar goal over a longer period.
Thirty minutes to an hour before the treatment, your clinician may place a topical anesthetic on your skin to reduce the sensation during the procedure. The area will be measured with motion tracking technology to ensure the area is treated evenly. The clinician will treat each measured section by uniformly rolling the Halo handpiece over the skin until the system recognizes the treatment is complete.
With a topical anesthetic and integrated cooling technology, most patients experience very little discomfort. Most patients describe the treatment as a feeling of heat with occasional prickling sensations but are generally comfortable. After the treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 15 to 30 minutes or a bit longer with deeper treatment levels.
For the first 24 hours, you should keep your skin protected according to your clinician’s instructions, but after that, you should be able to go about your normal activities. After the first 24 hours your skin will begin to peel, but you will be able to put on makeup. For a facial treatment, you will see very little change on the first day. After two to three days you will develop a light bronzing appearance. By day three or four your skin will peel, revealing your new skin beneath.
You will see initial results between two and five days after your Halo treatment, but your skin will continue to improve over time. Most patients see the greatest pigmentary improvement in the first two to three weeks. This is followed by a dermal regeneration phase that continues to improve for months.
Your Halo results will last for years to come, but you should continue to keep your skin protected at all times using UV sunscreen to protect your new, healthy skin. Each additional Halo treatment you get will only improve the results, giving you even better-looking skin.
Absolutely, and with terrific results.
Every Halo treatment is customized for your skin, and your lifestyle. Depending on your needs, it may be recommended that you undergo a single treatment, or a series of treatments.
