THE PROCEDURE

What It Is

The HALO™ laser by Sciton® represents a groundbreaking light-based technology that demonstrates exceptional efficacy in skin rejuvenation. This innovative hybrid fractional laser delivers both non-ablative and ablative wavelengths simultaneously, resulting in comprehensive and remarkable skin improvements.

By utilizing this advanced treatment, individuals can experience a more youthful complexion, and a reduction in fine lines pores, excessive pigment, and signs of aging, all without the associated downtime or discomfort typically associated with traditional laser therapies.

How It Works

The treatment effectively addresses years of sun exposure by removing damaged skin cells and stimulating the body’s innate healing response, resulting in the much-lauded “HALO” glow that has our patients raving. HALO™ utilizes two distinct wavelengths, namely ablative and non-ablative, to target various skin concerns at multiple levels.

When incorporated into a patient’s long-term skin care regimen, HALO™ enhances skin texture and clarity across all skin types, potentially reducing the necessity for future surgical interventions.

What It Treats

  • General Signs of Skin Aging
  • Brown Spots and Discoloration
  • Uneven Skin Tone and Pigment
  • Enlarged Pores
  • Skin Texture
  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles
  • Precancerous Skin Lesions (Actinic Keratosis)

Benefits

  • Less Downtime Than Other Lasers: Our HALO™ laser in Toledo applies non-ablative and ablative wavelengths to the same treatment zone to maximize results and reduce downtime.
  • Comfort: With its innovative approach to resurfacing, HALO™ is more comfortable and better tolerated than traditional fractional resurfacing.
  • Safe and Effective: Research proven and intelligent energy delivery, combined with Dynamic Thermal Optimization, ensures precise, safe, and effective treatments.
  • Fewer Treatments: With standard, non-ablative lasers, sometimes 5-6 treatments are necessary for optimal results. HALO™ laser provides exceptional outcomes in fewer treatments with its state-of-the-art and scientifically verified technology.
  • Treat Face and Body: HALO™ can treat all skin types as well as any area of the body. Popular treatment areas include face, neck, chest, and hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

What results can I expect?

HALO laser in Toledo is a unique and comprehensive skin revitalization treatment. You will see overall improvements in multiple aspects of your skin including a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduced pore size and overall skin “glow.” Most patients also experience an improvement of sunspots and hyperpigmentation, a healthier and more youthful complexion, and a reduction in precancerous skin lesions (actinic keratosis).

How many treatments are usually needed?

Skin type and conditions can vary widely so number of treatments will depend upon the quality of your skin as well as your desired cosmetic goals. You can choose to have one or two more aggressive treatments or have multiple more conservative treatments and achieve a similar goal over a longer period. Your provider will review these options with your during your evaluation.

What does Halo™ laser treatment feel like?

With a topical anesthetic and integrated cooling technology, most patients tolerate the treatment very well. Patients describe the treatment as a sensation of heat with occasional prickling sensations. At EVOLV, we also offer Frozen C cryotherapy and Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide system for improved comfort during treatments. After the treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 1-2 hours and possibly longer for those undergoing more aggressive treatments.

How soon after my treatment can I return to normal activities?

For the first 24 hours you should keep your skin protected according to your provider’s instructions, but after that you should be able to go about your normal activities. After the first 24 hours, you will be able to put on makeup. At EVOLV, we recommend using a professional mineral-based makeup such as Jane Iredale. The day of your treatment you may experience redness, and your skin will feel warm and appear swollen. After two to three days, you will develop a light bronzing appearance. By day three or four your skin will peel, revealing your rejuvenated and revitalized complexion.

When will I see my Halo™ results?

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 skin improvement in the first two to three weeks. This is followed by a dermal regeneration phase that continues to improve for months.

How long will my Halo™ results last?

Longevity of results following Halo™ laser treatment, as with any aesthetic treatment at EVOLV, will depend upon preparation, treatment parameters, and most of all, post treatment skin care and lifestyle. Specific skin care preparations as well as post treatment regimens will be recommended. It is particularly important to consistently use a medical grade broad spectrum sunscreen daily after treatment to protect your healing and more youthful skin.

My experience with all the staff at EVOLV, including Dr. Barone, the coordinator Sandy, nurses Angie and Kayle, and Amy, has been amazing, whether I’m in person or over the phone speaking to the receptionists. I’m only 5 days post-op, and I’m very satisfied with my results so far.

I had two deep scars on my face following an injury. I started seeing Amanda for Microneedling treatments shortly after.

Thanks to her, I can now feel confident on my wedding day!
