Halo Laser

Thanks to its advanced technology and integrated cooling system, HALO Laser is designed to be more comfortable than traditional resurfacing lasers. Most describe the sensation as a warm, prickling feeling, similar to a mild sunburn. A numbing cream is applied before your treatment to ensure comfort; most find the procedure very tolerable. After the session, there may be some heat and redness for a few hours, followed by mild swelling and peeling over the next few days. However, the downtime is significantly less than with fully ablative lasers, making HALO a great option for those seeking powerful results without excessive downtime.

Many patients achieve noticeable improvement after just one session, while others benefit from several for more dramatic rejuvenation. Since HALO is customizable, some choose a single, more intense session, while others opt for multiple lighter treatments spread out over time for gradual enhancement. During your New You Plastic Surgery consultation, our expert team will assess your skin and create a treatment plan.

Results from the HALO Laser start to appear within a few days, with initial improvements in skin texture and tone becoming noticeable as any redness or mild peeling subsides. Over the next few weeks, as collagen production increases and skin regeneration continues, the full effects will become more apparent. Most patients see their best results around the 2—to 3-month mark, with continued improvement over time. Since HALO stimulates long-term collagen remodeling, the skin continues to look smoother, firmer, and more radiant for months after treatment.

Yes, HALO Laser can be paired with other procedures to enhance results and address multiple skin concerns in a single session. Many patients pair HALO with treatments like BOTOX or dermal fillers to target wrinkles and volume loss. Combining HALO with hydra facials or other facial treatments can also help maximize hydration and further improve skin texture. 

The risks associated with the HALO Laser may include temporary redness, swelling, and peeling in the treated areas, which typically subside within a few days. In rare cases, hyperpigmentation (dark spots) or hypopigmentation (lighter spots) could occur if the skin is not properly cared for during the healing process, particularly for individuals with darker skin tones. Infection and scarring are also possible but extremely uncommon.
