Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser Resurfacing
What is Halo?
Halo is the latest advancement in aesthetic lasers that combines ablative and non-ablative technology into one treatment. It is the only aesthetic laser currently available with this hybrid technology that combines two distinct laser wavelengths (ablative and non-ablative) to target your skin concerns on several levels. Ablative wavelengths target and treat the skin for surface level conditions such as textural issues and pore size. The thermal treatment on the surface of the skin from ablative wavelength part of the Halo treatment kickstarts production of new, healthy skin for visible results in a short period of time.
The non ablative wavelength part of the Halo treatment targets deeper sun damage and other pigmentary issues. They remove the epidermal layer and encourage collagen production on a deeper level, producing a synergistic skin resurfacing and skin tightening effect. Together these wavelengths provide both short and long term benefits to a wide variety of guests.
What does Halo treat?
Halo precisely targets damaged skin to improve the visible signs of aging
- Areas of pigmentation
- Sun damage
- Visible signs of aging
- Uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Poor skin texture
- Fine lines
- Acne scarring
What can Halo do for you?
The combination of ablative and non ablative technology offers the best of both worlds by delivering amazing results with little downtime. As we get older the collagen in the skin breaks down naturally and the body produces less as time passes. HALO addresses this issue by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin. This process stimulates new collagen, the backbone of smooth, healthy, youthful skin. Halo also ablates micro laser channels into the epidermis, which will improve the overall texture and tone of the skin.
