HALO™
HALO™ is a powerful hybrid fractional laser treatment designed to dramatically improve skin tone, texture, and overall clarity. At The Hebe Medical Spa, HALO offers a proven solution for patients seeking noticeable skin rejuvenation with a balance of results and recovery time.
By combining two wavelengths of laser energy in one treatment, HALO targets both surface imperfections and deeper skin damage—helping you achieve a smoother, clearer, and more radiant complexion.
Ideal Candidates for HALO™
HALO is well-suited for patients experiencing moderate signs of aging or skin damage who want significant improvement without surgical intervention. Ideal candidates often include individuals with sun spots, discoloration, texture irregularities, or early to moderate wrinkles.
It is also an excellent option for those seeking long-lasting results with a manageable recovery period. During a consultation at The Hebe Medical Spa, your provider will evaluate your skin type and goals to ensure HALO is the right treatment for you.
Procedure Technique
HALO uses a unique dual-wavelength hybrid fractional laser system that combines ablative and non-ablative energy in a single treatment. The non-ablative wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin to stimulate collagen and address underlying damage, while the ablative wavelength resurfaces the outer layers to improve tone and texture.
This simultaneous approach allows for comprehensive skin renewal with greater precision and efficiency than traditional single-wavelength lasers. Treatment settings are fully customizable, ensuring your session is tailored to your specific skin concerns.
What to Expect
Before your HALO treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to enhance comfort. During the procedure, you may feel warmth or a snapping sensation as the laser energy is delivered, but advanced cooling technology helps keep the experience well-tolerated. Treatment time typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and intensity.
After treatment, your skin will appear red and swollen, similar to a sunburn. Over the next several days, microscopic epidermal necrotic debris (often called MENDS) will surface and naturally exfoliate.
This process reveals fresh, new skin underneath. Most patients experience about 5–7 days of social downtime, with redness and swelling gradually improving. Skin texture and tone continue to improve over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
Aftercare and Recovery
Post-treatment care is essential to achieving optimal results. Patients are advised to keep the skin hydrated, avoid sun exposure, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.
Gentle skincare products should be used until healing is complete, and harsh exfoliants or active ingredients should be avoided temporarily.
Following your provider’s aftercare instructions will help protect your skin and enhance your results.
