Restore Your Glow and Erase Years of Sun Damage
Halo is the world’s first hybrid fractional laser delivering simultaneous ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in a single pass. This allows for aggressive treatments with minimal downtime. Older laser technologies like CO2 or Fraxel require days of downtime…….and by downtime I mean cooped up indoors with a thick layer of Aquaphor on your face for a week or more. Most people simply are not willing to put up with that kind of downtime. Halo patients can get ablative laser results with non-ablative downtime.

Great Results. Minimal Downtime
Halo Combines Dermal Rejuvenation and Epidermal Renewal
Halo creates a grid of tiny pathways in the skin but leaves the surrounding tissue untouched for fast dermal rejuvenation. Fractional thermal injury points are laid down at the same time triggering collagen and elastin production – the stuff that makes you look and feel younger.
Botox® Cosmetic and Fillers Work Great…But They Won’t Fix Your Skin
BOTOX® Cosmetic and fillers work wonders on wrinkles… but they don’t do much for dark spots, large pores and dull skin. That’s where Halo excels. Don’t let these common conditions keep you from looking your best. Combine Halo with other aesthetic treatments to give you the look you’ve always wanted.
How Long Does Halo Laser Treatment Take?
The treatment itself takes between 30 and 45 minutes but patients need to numb before the treatment, so plan on spending 1 ½ to 2 hours in the office. Halo treatments can be adjusted to be lighter or more aggressive, so discuss your goals with one of our laser specialists.
How Much Does Halo Cost?
Treatments are $1,750 for one and $2,750 for two treatments.
Everyone needs to get the Halo treatments and the BBL (laser). It improved my skins texture and tone. I love Dr. Mess and all of her staff...
Neil - GoogleWhat To Expect After Halo Laser
Halo recovery times will vary depending on how aggressive a treatment you choose, but the following general timeline gives you an idea of what to expect after your Halo treatment.
Immediately After
Immediately after your treatment you face will feel hot like you have a sunburn. We will provide ice packs and you can take ibuprophen or Tylenol to help with any discomfort, but after a couple of hours the sunburn feeling will fade.
1 Day After Halo
The first day after Halo treatment you may have some swelling and your face may be tender. The swelling and tenderness should resolve over the next 24-48 hours.
2-3 Days After Halo
On the second or third day after halo you will begin to see tiny dark spots and a bronzed complexion. During this part of the healing pattern your face will feel rough and have a light sandpaper texture. It may also itch as your skin continues to recover. (Don’t scratch!)
1 Week After Halo
The bronzing and the roughness will flake away, leaving your skin with a rosy glow.
6 Weeks After Halo
You’ll be asking when you can schedule your next treatment!
