Discover Radiant Skin with the Halo© Laser

Imagine a treatment that could rejuvenate your skin, reverse years of sun damage, and give you a radiant glow—all with minimal downtime. That’s exactly what the Halo© laser offers. This innovative treatment combines the best of ablative and non-ablative laser technologies to target multiple skin concerns and deliver exceptional results.

As the world’s first hybrid fractional laser, the Halo© laser harnesses the power of both wavelengths to promote deep skin renewal and improve texture, tone, and overall appearance.

At APT Medical Aesthetics in Oakville, ON, we’re proud to offer this innovative treatment to help you achieve radiant, healthy skin.

What Is the Halo© Laser, and How Does It Work?

The Halo© laser is an advanced skin resurfacing device that takes a unique approach to skin rejuvenation.

The Halo© laser combines two types of laser energy—ablative and non-ablative—to simultaneously target the skin’s surface and deeper layers. The ablative wavelength creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process. At the same time, the non-ablative wavelength delivers thermal energy to the deeper layers, stimulating collagen production without damaging the skin’s surface.

This synergy allows the Halo© laser to deliver a comprehensive solution for a wide range of skin concerns, including

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
• Acne scars
• Uneven skin texture and tone
• Enlarged pores

With its ability to treat both superficial and deeper layers of skin, the Halo© laser provides visible improvements with minimal downtime.

If you’re ready to take your skin to the next level, the Halo© laser may be the perfect solution for you.

A Real-Life Skin Transformation

At APT Medical Aesthetics, we’re passionate about helping our clients achieve their best skin. One of our clients recently experienced a remarkable transformation with the Halo© laser treatment.

During her personalized consultation, we took the time to carefully assess her skin and understand her concerns. She wanted to address signs of aging, sun damage, and uneven texture. After discussing her goals, we recommended a Halo© laser treatment tailored to her specific needs.

The results were nothing short of remarkable. After just one Halo© laser session, her skin appeared noticeably smoother, brighter, and more even-toned. The fine lines around her eyes softened, and the sun spots on her cheeks began to fade.

Over the following weeks, the benefits of the treatment continued to develop as her skin produced new collagen. Her complexion became firmer, more radiant, and more youthful-looking.

This transformation not only improved her skin’s appearance but also boosted her confidence. She now feels more comfortable going makeup-free and enjoys the compliments she receives on her glowing skin.

Pre-Treatment Instructions – Preparing for Your Halo© Laser Session

To ensure optimal results and minimize potential side effects, it’s important to follow these pre-treatment instructions before your Halo© laser session:

1. Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds for at least two weeks before your treatment. Sunburned or tanned skin is more sensitive and may increase the risk of complications.
2. Discontinue Retinoids: Stop using retinoids, retinol, and other exfoliating products at least one week before your treatment, as they can make your skin more sensitive.
3. Hydrate Your Skin: Keep your skin well-hydrated in the days leading up to your treatment. Well-hydrated skin responds better to laser treatments and heals more quickly.
4. Skip Tanning Products: Avoid self-tanning products and spray tans before your treatment, as they can interfere with the laser’s ability to target pigmentation.
5. Avoid Certain Medications: Inform your provider about any medications or supplements you’re taking. Some medications, such as blood thinners, may need to be paused before treatment.

Our team will provide you with personalized instructions during your consultation to help you prepare for the best possible outcome.

What to Expect During and After Your Halo© Laser Treatment

The Halo© laser treatment is a quick and relatively comfortable procedure that typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.

During the Treatment

• A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure your comfort.
• The laser device is passed over your skin, delivering controlled energy to the targeted areas.
• You may feel warmth or a slight tingling sensation during the procedure, but most patients find it very tolerable.

Post-Treatment Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential to maximize your results and promote healing. Follow these post-treatment instructions:

1. Expect Redness and Swelling: It’s normal to experience redness, swelling, and a warm sensation immediately after treatment. These effects typically subside within 24 to 48 hours.
2. Follow a Gentle Skincare Routine: Use only gentle, fragrance-free products on your skin for the first week after treatment. Avoid harsh exfoliants, retinoids, and active ingredients until your skin has fully healed.
3. Apply Sunscreen Religiously: Protect your skin from the sun by applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day. Your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays after treatment, and sun exposure can cause pigmentation.
4. Avoid Picking or Scrubbing: As your skin heals, you may notice flaking or peeling. Do not pick or scrub at your skin, as this can cause scarring or irritation. Let the dead skin shed naturally.
5. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water and keep your skin moisturized to support the healing process.

What You Need to Know About Downtime

One of the many benefits of the Halo© laser is its minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days.

• Days 1-2: Your skin will appear red and feel warm, similar to a sunburn.
• Days 3-5: Tiny dark spots (also known as MENDs—microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) may appear as your skin begins to heal. These are a normal part of the process and will flake off naturally.
• Days 5-7: Most redness and flaking will have resolved, revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath.

While many clients feel comfortable resuming normal activities after a few days, it’s important to plan your treatment around any significant social events to allow adequate time for healing.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Halo© Laser

How many treatments will I need?

Most clients achieve noticeable results after just 1 session. However, depending on your skin concerns and goals, your provider may recommend a series of treatments for optimal results.

Is the Halo© laser safe for all skin types?

Yes! The Halo© laser can be customized for a wide range of skin types and tones. During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin and determine if the Halo© laser is the right treatment for you.

How long do results last?

With proper skincare and sun protection, the results of a Halo© laser treatment can last for years. However, natural aging and sun exposure will continue to affect your skin over time, so maintenance treatments may be recommended to preserve your results.
