Results you have to see to believe... without the downtime you'd expect.
Sun damage and the aging process can cause your skin to develop wrinkles, fine lines, and color irregularities. Skin can also lose its natural, healthy glow. HALO is the definitive laser for fair skinned people with sun damage – period!
Sun damage and the aging process can cause your skin to develop wrinkles, fine lines and color irregularities. Skin can also lose its natural, healthy glow. Previously, patients had to choose between a laser procedure that produced great results, but required a longer recovery, and a procedure offering faster recovery, but with compromised results.
HALO is the first ever hybrid fractional laser, manufactured by Sciton — one of the world’s most respected and renowned laser manufacturers. The Halo Laser is called a hybrid because its two wavelengths, working in different layers of the skin, combine the unique advantages of both “ablative” and “non-ablative” lasers to deliver the results you want without the downtime you’d expect.
Total Aesthetics in Westport and Fairfield County
The results of Halo Laser treatment can be enhanced with the addition of intense pulsed light (IPL) either prior to, or in the same visit. At Total Aesthetics in Westport Halo Laser and BBL (BroadBand Light) are considered the current state-of-the-art in laser skin treatments. Halo Laser, BBL and Hydrafacial make a great combination for long-term correction and maintenance.
The “MENDS” of Halo Laser are areas of “Microscopic Epidermal Necrotic Debris,” and they are a normal result of the use of the 1470 non-ablative wavelengths during a Halo Laser treatment. As the “MENDS” rise to the surface and flake off, the rough texture resolves, and the skin takes on its new, healthy glow.
Number of Treatments Needed
While some patients are happy with the results after just one Halo Laser session, the best results from Halo fractional resurfacing require two treatments.
Location of Treatment
One advantage of Halo Laser is that its use is not limited to the face. Areas such as the décolleté, hands and other body areas can be treated with Halo Laser.
Treatment Process
In most cases, you will be prescribed an antiviral medication and some topical skin creams prior to your Westport Halo Laser treatment at Total Aesthetics. During the treatment, the handpiece is gently moved across the areas being treated to allow the lasers to stimulate the body’s natural healing process.
You will feel minimal to no discomfort. Following treatment, the old, dull, sun-damaged tissue gently flakes away revealing healthy, fresh, and glowing skin. The Halo Laser stimulates a gentle replenishment of the skin’s natural collagen over the following months to further enhance the results.
Improve Scars
Fractionated erbium laser resurfacing has long been regarded as one of the best treatments for acne scars. We’ve found that Halo Laser provides great results with minimal recovery and fewer treatments than some alternatives. At Total Aesthetics, we offer a comprehensive array of treatments for acne and other facial scars, including Halo Laser, Sciton’s ProFractional laser, as well as microneedling, both with and without radiofrequency.
What does Halo Laser treat?
The benefits of Halo Laser
We’re pleased to be a Sciton Practice.
At Total Aesthetics in Westport Halo Laser is the cornerstone of our comprehensive skin care and rejuvenation program that begins with a computerized skin analysis and medical skin care designed just for you. We often continue with Sciton’s famous BBL BroadBand Light brand of intense pulsed light (IPL) and proceed to Halo Laser to complete your state-of-the-art rejuvenation process without need for multiple visits. We also offer Sciton®’s NanoLaserPeel™ and MicroLaserPeel® as well as Sciton’s ProFractional and full-field TRL erbium to complete the spectrum of skin care treatments known as “Resurfacing Perfected.”
Our experience and training is second to none.
Now, a revolutionary hybrid laser from Sciton has changed the game. As the world’s first hybrid fractional laser, Halo Laser offers two wavelengths that work synergistically in both the epidermis and dermis to precisely target the years of sun damage and the visible signs of aging, along with the damage you can’t see. Because treatments are customized to fit your busy schedule, Halo Laser offers you the best of both worlds—beautiful results with minimal downtime, and best of all, with the signature “Halo glow.”
Halo Laser works on the damage you can and can’t see.
You can decide between a light treatment or a more intensive correction. Either way, you’ll be ready for makeup in 48 hours, and your skin will be smoother and more vibrant. You’ll see improvement in discoloration, fine lines, enlarged pores, sun damage, and the visible signs of aging. We’re thrilled to be the very first plastic surgery practice in Fairfield County to offer Halo Laser, and we strive to deliver the finest results with a Halo Laser Westport and even the whole Tri-State area have to offer.
We will provide you with instructions on how to protect your skin following your Westport Halo Laser treatment. After the first 24 hours, your skin will begin to peel, but you will be able to resume your normal activities. After 48 hours, you will be able to wear makeup. One advantage of Halo Laser is that treatments are customized for your busy schedule, and Halo Laser takes less than one hour to perform. Downtime can vary from as little as one day to several days of mild swelling and flaking. Halo does not create the dramatic flaking and scabbing associated with some ablative lasers.
You will see initial results between the second and fifth day following your Halo Laser treatment. Your skin will continue to improve over time with most patients seeing the greatest improvement in the first two to three weeks. As long as you continue to protect your healthy, new skin with sunscreen, your Halo Laser results can last for years to come.
Because Halo Laser incorporates an integrated cooling mechanism into its handpiece, the procedure has minimal discomfort. A topical anesthetic cream is applied prior to treatment to ensure your comfort.
The price can vary depending upon the number of treatments and areas treated. All costs will be fully explained to you prior to treatment.
The first step towards a new, beautiful you is to schedule a personal consultation.
