What is HALO®?

Reveal your most radiant skin with HALO by Sciton, a hybrid fractional laser designed to deliver comprehensive skin rejuvenation by combining two laser wavelengths in one treatment. HALO uniquely pairs ablative and non-ablative laser technology to address skin concerns at different depths—renewing the skin's surface while stimulating deeper dermal remodeling for smoother texture, improved clarity, and a luminous, youthful-looking glow.

At Ageless Skin & Laser Center, our providers use HALO for patients who want significant skin improvement with less downtime than traditional ablative lasers. We personalize each treatment to your skin concerns and goals.

How HALO® Works

HALO delivers two types of laser energy: one that targets the skin's surface and one that penetrates deeper. The combination creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger the body's healing response, stimulating collagen and revealing smoother skin. Traditional laser resurfacing often requires choosing between a more intensive treatment with greater downtime or a gentler treatment with more modest correction. HALO combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths, allowing your provider to customize treatment depth and intensity according to your skin concerns and desired recovery.

Your provider will evaluate your skin during a consultation and recommend the appropriate treatment depth. We believe in honest, individualized recommendations.

What to Expect During Treatment

A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort before the HALO laser is passed over the treatment area. Most patients feel a warming sensation. The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes.

Our experienced providers ensure a comfortable, professional experience. We take the time to explain each step and answer your questions.

Recovery & Results

You may experience redness and mild swelling for 2–5 days. Your skin may have a 'sandpaper' texture before gently peeling. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided.

Results are visible within a week, with continued improvement over the following months as collagen production increases. A series of 2–3 treatments may be recommended for optimal results. At Ageless Skin & Laser Center, every HALO treatment is personalized to your skin and goals — whether you're looking to address years of sun exposure, soften fine lines, improve acne scars, or restore a smoother, more luminous complexion. Advanced resurfacing. Personalized correction. Beautifully renewed skin.
