What Is the HALO Laser?

Halo is a highly requested skin rejuvenation treatment due to its limited downtime and transformative results. It’s perfect for those just beginning to see the signs of aging or for those who wish to undergo regular maintenance to keep their complexion in pristine condition.

The beauty of the Halo laser is its ability to fuse the benefits of ablative treatments (those that trigger microwounds to stimulate collagen regrowth) and non-ablative treatments (those that address more superficial signs of aging.) The dual wavelengths used by Halo restore a youthful radiance and rewind the hands of time, boosting your self-confidence.

Halo is an inherently safe procedure in which thermal energy is constantly monitored and adjusted. Your skin remains cool throughout your session as your comfort is continuously monitored. After Halo, pigmented skin cells rise to the surface and flake off over the course of several days. Over time, the renewed collagen production leads to firmer, tighter skin that is more elastic and hydrated.

HALO Tribrid: The Next Evolution in Skin Renewal

This triple-wavelength innovation refines, brightens, and rejuvenates every layer of the skin in a single, efficient treatment.

Unlike traditional lasers that treat either the surface or deeper dermal layers, HALO Tribrid works on all three levels—surface, mid-depth, and deep—simultaneously. The result is luminous, polished skin that looks refreshed from the outside and renewed from within.

  • Within a week, patients notice smoother, more even skin; over the following months, continued collagen renewal delivers long-lasting refinement and a youthful glow

What Are the Benefits of HALO?

With Halo, your provider can customize your treatment, addressing your unique degree of sun damage while honoring your downtime requirements. You can choose the number of treatments you undergo based on your goals for improvement. Halo is appropriate for all skin tones, and with darker skin, it can resurface up to 30%, unlike other lasers that only resurface up to 5%. The Halo laser treatment truly is among the most effective and popular options for those seeking striking results with little to no downtime.

How HALO Laser Improves Skin Tone, Texture, and Radiance

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for the HALO Laser?

Ideal candidates for Halo are dealing with acne scars, dark spots, sun damage, and wrinkles that appear on the face, neck, or body. They have not used Accutane (or any of its generic counterparts) within the past year and have not had a cold-sore breakout recently. Patients should be mentally and physically healthy and have realistic, positive attitudes toward their results based on a private, initial consultation with our team.

How Soon After My Treatment Can I Return to Normal Activities?

You should protect your skin and rest for the first 24 hours, but after that, you can resume your normal activities. Peeling will occur over the course of a few days.

When Will I See Results?

Between 3 and 5 days after your Halo session, you will begin to see marked improvements in your skin tone and texture that peak at around 2-3 weeks. Of course, these changes will continue to evolve over time, supported by the regeneration of your collagen reserves from within.

How Long Will My Results Last?

Halo results will continue to impress for years, provided that you protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun and follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen. You can undergo additional Halo sessions as needed to reach your ultimate goals for a radiant, flawless complexion.

HALO Laser FAQ

How does the HALO Tribrid differ from the original HALO laser?

HALO Tribrid builds upon the dual-wavelength power of the original HALO, enhancing it with a third wavelength, enabling your provider to treat the surface, mid-depth, and deep layers of skin simultaneously. It offers the glow and smoothness of a gentle laser with the collagen-building intensity of an ablative one—without the extended downtime.

What does the treatment feel like?

A topical numbing cream is applied before your session for comfort. You may feel a gentle warmth or a light prickling sensation as the laser moves across your skin, but the built-in cooling system helps maintain comfort throughout. Any residual warmth typically fades within an hour.

How long is the recovery time?

Most patients experience mild redness and swelling similar to a light sunburn for the first 24 hours. Over the next few days, your skin will gradually bronze as tiny microflakes rise to the surface and naturally shed. By days 4–5, renewed, radiant skin is revealed.

Is HALO Tribrid safe for all skin types?

Yes. HALO Tribrid is safe and effective for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I–VI) when performed by a trained provider. Its intelligent energy delivery allows precise control of depth and temperature, minimizing risk while optimizing results for every complexion.

Can HALO Tribrid be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely, ask our skilled providers what is the best options for combination treatments.
