Over the years, sun exposure and the wear and tear of everyday life can damage your skin. This results in visible signs of aging, such as sun spots, fine lines, and the loss of your natural healthy glow. HALO laser skin treatments help people from Fort Worth, Plano, Frisco, and the Grapevine area eliminate years of skin damage. The laser triggers the body’s natural healing response, revealing the luminous glow you had when you were younger.
At 2301 Plastic Surgery MedSpa, here’s what we help you accomplish with HALO:
• Precisely target skin damage and visible signs of aging
• Improvement in the appearance of wrinkles, sun damage, and enlarged pores
• Personalized treatment plans to meet your lifestyle needs
Everyone’s skin is different. Everyone’s needs are different. HALO allows our MedSpa team to customize a treatment to fit your goals and lifestyle. Need to be back at work tomorrow? A light treatment creates smooth, vibrant skin that’s ready for makeup the next day. Want that added WOW factor? A more intense treatment will give your skin a youthful glow with just a few extra days of downtime.
Every HALO treatment is customized to your skin and lifestyle. Depending on your needs, your provider may recommend a single treatment or a series of treatments, which impacts total cost. The best way to find out which option is best for your needs and budget is to visit our MedSpa for a consultation.
In the past, patients were limited to choosing between a procedure offering exceptional results with a lengthy recovery window or a procedure with a fast recovery but only marginal results. With HALO, you get the best of both worlds: great results with minimal downtime!
HALO combines deep dermal revitalization with epidermal renewal for a synergistic effect you can’t get with any other treatment. HALO creates beautiful results without the downtime of more aggressive treatments.
HALO precisely targets years of damage to your skin, including:
• Wrinkles
• Discoloration
• Sun damage
• Visible signs of aging
• Enlarged pores
• Poor skin appearance
HALO is a complete skin revitalization treatment. You will see overall improvements, including a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduced pore size, skin reflectivity and glow, in addition to a significant reduction in discoloration. Some people also enhance their HALO results with BBL® Hero™ treatments to address additional vascular and pigmentation issues.
Thirty minutes to an hour before the treatment, your clinician may place a topical anesthetic on your skin to reduce the sensation during the procedure. The area will be measured with motion-tracking technology to ensure it is treated evenly. The clinician will treat each measured section by uniformly rolling the HALO handpiece over the skin until the system recognizes that the treatment is complete.
With a topical anesthetic and integrated cooling technology, most patients experience very little discomfort. Some patients share that they feel a sensation of heat with occasional prickling. After treatment, many patients continue to feel warm for an additional 15 to 30 minutes or a bit longer with deeper treatment levels.
For the first 24 hours, you should keep your skin protected according to your clinician’s instructions. After that, you should be able to go about your normal activities. After the first 24 hours, your skin will begin to peel, but you will be able to put on makeup. For a facial treatment, you will see very little change on the first day. After two to three days, you will develop a light bronzing appearance. By day three or four, your skin will peel, revealing fresh, healthy new skin underneath.
You will see initial results between 2 to 5 days after your HALO treatment, but your skin will continue to improve over time. Most patients see the greatest pigmentary improvement in the first 2 to 3 weeks. This is followed by a dermal regeneration phase that continues to improve for months.
What’s great about HALO is that you can choose how many treatments you want. Upon discussing your unique needs with your clinician, you may opt to have one or two aggressive treatments—or you can space multiple, less aggressive treatments apart and achieve a similar goal over a longer period. The choice is yours!
Your HALO results will last for years to come, but you should continue to keep your skin protected at all times by using UV sunscreen to protect your new, healthy skin. Each additional HALO treatment you get will continue to improve the appearance of your skin.
