Everyone wants a glowing complexion – but sometimes skin has other ideas. Fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and even acne scars can all gang up to make you feel less than confident about your bare skin. And while over-the-counter products can help mask these imperfections, the truth is that if you want truly radiant and flawless skin, you’re going to need something extra.

Like the Sciton HALO Laser!

The Sciton HALO Laser is an FDA-cleared device that uses both non-ablative and ablative approaches to delivering clear, beautiful skin. As a quick recap, an ablative laser removes the topmost layer of the dermis, where all those imperfections are at their most obvious. A non-ablative laser works by heating up the subdermal tissue, which kickstarts the body’s collagen production. What’s great about the HALO Laser is that it can switch between both types – meaning you have the freedom to choose the treatment that’s right for you.

Now that you know a little more about the HALO Laser, you might be asking yourself, “What conditions can be treated?”

  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Acne and trauma scarring
  • Age spots
  • And more

The goal of any HALO Laser treatment is to help you achieve your best skin ever.

Depending on which laser type you choose, your session should take just under an hour. You should expect to feel some warmth throughout the procedure. You may also experience slight swelling for a few days after treatment. Cold compresses can help bring the swelling down, so make sure you grab a few before your appointment.
