Halo Laser is a hybrid fractional laser that combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to treat sun damage, age spots, texture irregularities, and overall skin tone. The procedure removes damaged outer skin layers while stimulating collagen production beneath the surface. Treatment typically takes 20 to 30 minutes depending on the area size.

Halo Laser works well for people with sun-damaged skin, uneven pigmentation, fine lines, or rough texture who have realistic expectations about results. Those with darker skin tones can be treated with proper settings adjusted by an experienced provider. Recent heavy sun exposure or active skin infections should resolve before scheduling.

The provider will cleanse the skin and apply a topical numbing cream before beginning. You will feel heat and a snapping sensation as the laser passes over the treatment area. Most people tolerate the procedure well, though sensitivity varies.

Skin will appear red and may feel warm immediately after treatment. Mild swelling and peeling typically begin within 24 to 48 hours and can last 5 to 7 days. Most people return to normal activities quickly, though sun protection is essential during healing.

Skin texture, tone, and clarity improve noticeably as healing progresses over 2 to 3 weeks, with continued improvement for several months. Results depend on baseline skin condition and the aggressiveness of settings used. A series of treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart may be recommended for optimal outcomes.
