HALO Hybrid Fractional Laser West Edmonton

The HALO laser is a hybrid fractional laser, uniquely combining ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in a single treatment. This first-of-its-kind, innovative device allows for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, targeting both the surface and deeper layers of the skin to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. It’s customizable, enabling treatments to be tailored to individual needs and concerns. In addition, due to the technology, HALO laser treatments offer a balanced mix of effective results with manageable downtime.

The HALO hybrid fractional laser can treat a variety of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, scarring, stretch markets, enlarged pores, and sun damage, such as hyperpigmentation. Due to its ability to precisely target the outermost and inner layers of the skin, the laser stimulates collagen and elastin production, aligning with the body’s natural cell cycles for a renewed, natural look.

By leveraging both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths, the HALO hybrid fractional laser stimulates controlled rejuvenation within both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. This dual action stimulates the natural healing response, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, which are crucial proteins that maintain skin structure and elasticity. Since the HALO laser works with the body’s natural healing cycles, patients may experience significant improvements immediately following the treatment, but they will most likely be noticeable in weeks and months as they continue to develop.

There is some downtime associated with this treatment, but this can vary based on intensity. While some patients choose multiple less intense sessions, others may opt for fewer yet deeper procedures. It’s common to experience symptoms such as redness and swelling. But, as the healing process is expedited, patients can usually resume normal activities within a few days, depending on the treatment intensity.

The HALO laser is suitable for all skin types and capable of addressing various skin concerns across different areas of the body. Beyond the face, the HALO laser can also improve skin texture, reduce signs of aging, and correct sun damage on the neck, chest, arms, hands, and legs.

A single treatment session typically includes skin preparation with a topical anesthetic, the laser treatment itself, and post-treatment care. The entire process usually lasts upwards of an hour, as the topical anesthetic takes time to numb the treatment area. From here, the laser is applied for about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and condition of the treatment area. Once complete, aftercare instructions are provided to support the healing process, with emphasis on the importance of moisturizing and sun protection.
