Restore Balance and Radiance to
Your Complexion
HALO is a groundbreaking hybrid fractional laser that rejuvenates the skin from the inside out. It combines ablative and non-ablative laser wavelengths to treat surface imperfections and deeper layers of the skin. This dual-action approach helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, enlarged pores, and uneven tone, while stimulating natural collagen production. Your provider customizes each HALO treatment to your skin’s needs, delivering visible results with minimal downtime in a safe, dermatologist-supervised environment.

How Does HALO Laser Treatment Work?
HALO laser treatment uses two types of laser energy (ablative and non-ablative) to rejuvenate the skin at multiple levels. The ablative laser wavelength gently removes damaged surface cells, while the non-ablative laser wavelength penetrates deeper layers of the skin to boost collagen and elastin production. This controlled healing renews skin texture, reduces pigmentation, and tightens pores, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. Your provider customizes each session to balance visible results with minimal downtime.

Your HALO Laser Treatment Session
Before your HALO session, your provider will cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort. During treatment, the HALO handpiece glides smoothly across your skin’s surface, delivering precisely controlled laser energy to target both the surface and deeper layers. You may feel gentle warmth or tingling as the laser works. The session lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the area treated. Afterward, your skin may appear red and warm, similar to a mild sunburn, as it begins its healing and renewal process.
Advantages of HALO Laser Treatment:
- Combines deep rejuvenation with minimal downtime
- Treats surface damage and stimulates collagen renewal
- Customizable intensity based on your skin type and goals
- Improves tone, texture, and overall skin clarity
- Reduces visible signs of aging and sun exposure
- Suitable for the face, neck, chest, and hands
- Delivers long-lasting results that continue to improve over time
What Should I Expect After the Treatment?
Immediately after your session, your skin will feel warm and appear slightly red, much like a mild sunburn. Over the next few days, a bronzed tone may develop on your skin as tiny micro-dots, known as MENDS, form on the surface. These are part of the normal healing process and will naturally flake away as your new, radiant skin appears. You can usually return to normal activities within a few days, though makeup should be avoided for the first 24 hours.
HALO Laser Treatment FAQs
When Will I See the Results?
You’ll start to see a smoother texture and a healthy glow within five to seven days, as the outer skin renews itself. Deeper improvements, such as reduced fine lines, smaller pores, and more even tone, develop gradually over the next several weeks as new collagen and elastin continue to form. With proper sun protection and skincare, your results can last for years.
How Many HALO Treatments Will I Need?
Most people notice visible improvement after just one HALO treatment. However, depending on your skin goals and the extent of your damage, your provider may recommend a series of sessions spaced several months apart. Lighter sessions can be performed more frequently, while deeper resurfacing treatments often deliver dramatic results in fewer visits.
