Halo is a hybrid laser that produces fractional ablative results with non-ablative downtime by applying both wavelengths in a single pass.
Ablative lasers work by removing the outermost layers of dead and damaged skin, while non-ablative lasers pass through the skin’s upper layers to heat the deeper tissues, stimulating collagen.
These combined actions make the Halo laser particularly effective for improving skin texture, tone, and overall appearance by addressing skin laxity, stretch marks, age spots, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation.

Request a ConsultationHalo by Sciton is the world’s first hybrid fractional laser, offering a groundbreaking approach to skin rejuvenation. It uniquely combines non-ablative and ablative wavelengths to treat the same area during a single session, effectively improving signs of aging with just one or two treatments.
The ablative wavelength addresses surface-level issues like texture and pore size, while the non-ablative wavelength penetrates deeper to tackle sun damage and pigmentation concerns. This dual action creates controlled thermal injuries in the skin, prompting the rapid production of new, healthy skin. Halo is versatile enough to treat various areas, including the neck, chest, hands, arms, legs, and face, effectively targeting scar revision, sun damage, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Choosing Halo Body means choosing the latest laser technology for your skin. Our expert team customizes each session to your needs. They ensure effective treatment for crepey skin, stretch marks, and age spots.
With minimal downtime, Halo Body is perfect for anyone looking to revitalize their appearance without long recovery periods. Trust in a solution that combines innovation, precision, and care.
Halo Laser treatments offer remarkable skin improvements with minimal downtime, a notable advantage over traditional fractional resurfacing. One session can significantly diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration while refining skin tone and texture. It also reduces scars and enhances conditions like Melasma.
This quick and comfortable procedure requires only a topical anesthetic, allowing a quick return to your routine within 24 hours.
Traditional laser resurfacing presents two approaches: ablative and non-ablative. Ablative lasers, like CO2, remove the top skin layer and stimulate collagen, yielding dramatic results but necessitating significant downtime. Non-ablative lasers offer a gentler alternative with multiple treatments and minimal downtime, yet often require several sessions for noticeable results.
The innovative Sciton Halo Laser combines the benefits of both options. As the first Hybrid Fractional Laser, it delivers ablative-quality results with non-ablative downtime, enhanced skin tone, reduced hyperpigmentation, and a youthful appearance in just 1-2 treatments, all with little recovery period.
A consultation will determine if the Halo is the right treatment for you.
During your initial visit, our experts at Skin Rejuvenation Clinic will assess your skin concerns and discuss your aesthetic goals and what can be done to achieve your desired results.
Based on our conversation, we will create a tailored treatment just for you.
To see the best results, we may start you on skincare products prior to treatment and after.
Depending on your medical conditions, a prescription for cold-sore medicine or acne medicine could be prescribed.
Our comprehensive planning involves bespoke treatment strategies and essential pre- and post-care regimens to maximize your results and ensure a seamless experience.
We will apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area for approximately 60 minutes.
Then customized parameters that your provider chooses specifically for your condition will be entered into the Halo computer software. A cold air machine (by Zimmer) connected to the Halo handpiece is turned on to make for a more comfortable treatment. We will then perform the Halo laser treatment in sectioned areas of the skin.
Following the treatment, a moisturizing cream will be applied. You will leave with a complimentary skincare product.
Experience a comfortable treatment with personalized settings and advanced cooling systems, followed by nourishing care to soothe and enhance your skin’s recovery.
A follow-up visit will occur in one month.
One month post-treatment, we’ll meet to review your progress and ensure your skin is healing beautifully, with the option to adjust your regimen for ongoing results.

Enhance your Halo Body results with complementary treatments like BBL HERO, which targets pigmentation and visible veins. Indiba enhances tissue regeneration and healing, for improving skin texture. Additionally, Bodifirm by Revision can be used for targeted body sculpting, providing firm, toned skin, and complementing the effects of your Halo treatment.
Before your Halo laser treatment, expect an in-depth consultation with our caring, medically certified providers in Edina & Bloomington. They’ll discuss your skin aspirations and detail the steps to reach your desired outcomes. A customized treatment plan will be specifically tailored to your skin’s needs.
First, a topical numbing cream will be applied to the treated areas, and you’ll relax for about an hour while it takes effect. Afterward, your provider will set specific parameters in the Halo software tailored to your skin condition to ensure precise treatment.
A cold air machine attached to the Halo handpiece will keep your skin cool, adding comfort. You’ll feel a gentle warmth as the laser works its magic. Thanks to the numbing cream and cool air, the experience is designed to be soothing. The procedure is quick, efficient, and minimally invasive, ensuring your comfort every step of the way.
After a Halo laser treatment, you can expect some swelling. This swelling typically begins immediately after the procedure and may persist for 5 to 7 days, varying with the intensity of the treatment. The peak swelling usually occurs within 48 to 72 hours post-treatment. To alleviate any discomfort, applying a cold compress can be effective. It’s common to experience a sensation like a sunburn in the treated areas.
This varies from patient to patient. Some find it to have no discomfort. Some find it to be mildly uncomfortable. Others find it to be very hot and prickly.
The first ten to fifteen minutes are the most uncomfortable. Gradually the heat dissipates and will be totally gone in about two to three hours.
We apply topical numbing for an hour prior to the procedure, and for most patients, it is sufficient to control pain. If needed, we can offer you Nitrous Oxide (“laughing gas”). We also may prescribe a mild relaxing medication in certain cases.
The treated area will be red for the first three days (longer if the treatment is more aggressive) and will feel like a sunburn.
On the second and third days, as the dead skin cells move toward the top layer of the skin, you will notice fine little dark dots that may last up to two weeks before resolving. Your skin will have some mild peeling and feel a little like sandpaper on days two and three.
We will provide complimentary skin care products with instructions to use for the next two weeks.
We do not recommend aggressive exfoliating of the skin as it is healing. However, gentle brushing with a washcloth when cleansing the skin is acceptable to reduce flaking.
As soon as 1 to 2 weeks after the Halo treatment, you may see results. The stimulation of hyaluronic acid, in addition to better light reflectivity of the skin, contributes to this wonderful result. You will continue to appreciate pleasant changes for at least three months after the treatment.
We recommend waiting at least one month between Halo procedures.
Yes, Halo can be used on most patients with darker skin.
The Halo treatment effectively tackles various skin concerns, including vascular lesions, pigmentation irregularities, sunspots, and textural issues. It also helps diminish the appearance of scar tissue, stretch marks, age spots, and skin laxity—all in a single modality.
The ideal number of Halo treatments varies based on skin conditions and desired outcomes. While everyone experiences noticeable improvements after just one session, some individuals may require two to three treatments to achieve optimal results.
A typical Halo laser treatment session lasts about 30 minutes, but the exact duration can vary depending on the targeted areas and the specific skin condition being addressed.
Recovery time generally ranges from 5 to 7 days. During the initial days, you might experience redness, particularly if the treatment is more intensive, and your skin may feel like it has a sunburn. By the second and third days, as dead skin cells rise to the surface, expect to see tiny dark spots appearing.
Your skin will likely undergo mild peeling and a rough, sandpaper-like texture. Swelling may also occur. The redness and small brown spots typically clear up within two weeks.
To ensure optimal results, avoid getting shampoo on the treated area for a few days after your treatment. You can shower in the morning after using a medical-grade gentle soap and warm, not hot, water.
