What Is Halo Pro?
Halo Pro by Sciton is the world's first hybrid fractional laser — and one of the most impactful skin treatments available today. It simultaneously delivers two laser wavelengths in a single pass: a non-ablative 1470nm wavelength that heats the deeper dermis to stimulate collagen, and an ablative 2940nm wavelength that removes a precise layer of the epidermis.
The result is a treatment that addresses both the surface and the deep layers of your skin simultaneously — something previously only achievable with two separate procedures. Most patients see significant improvement in just 1–3 treatments, with results that continue to build for months afterward.

Treatment Concerns
What Halo Pro Can Treat
Halo Pro addresses a comprehensive range of skin concerns in a single treatment — making it one of the most versatile and efficient laser options available.
Sun Damage & Brown Spots
Halo's ablative component removes sun-damaged surface cells while the non-ablative wavelength targets pigmentation in the deeper dermis, dramatically improving overall skin tone.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Collagen stimulation from the non-ablative wavelength improves skin firmness and gradually reduces the appearance of fine lines, particularly around the eyes and mouth.
Enlarged Pores
Collagen remodeling around pores tightens and minimizes their appearance, creating smoother, more refined skin texture.
Uneven Skin Texture
Surface irregularities, roughness, and acne scarring are addressed through controlled resurfacing that replaces damaged tissue with fresh, smooth new skin.
Overall Skin Quality
Patients consistently report that Halo Pro simply makes skin look better — more luminous, even, and youthful — even when no single concern was dramatically severe.
Melasma & Discoloration
Halo Pro can be calibrated to address stubborn hyperpigmentation. Treatment of melasma is done conservatively and always paired with a comprehensive skincare protocol.
Your Halo Experience
What to Expect
A full Halo Pro treatment takes approximately 60–90 minutes including prep time. Downtime is 3–5 days of bronzing and flaking as the skin renews.
Pre-Treatment Prep
A topical numbing cream is applied 45–60 minutes prior to treatment to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
Laser Treatment
Your provider passes the Halo handpiece over the entire face. Intelligent motion tracking ensures consistent, uniform treatment coverage.
Days 1–2
Skin appears bronzed and feels warm, similar to a moderate sunburn. Swelling is possible, especially around the eyes. Keep skin moist and avoid sun exposure.
Days 3–5
Skin begins to peel (MENDS — microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) as treated tissue sloughs away to reveal fresh new skin beneath.
Weeks & Beyond
Skin glows and results continue to improve over 3–6 months as collagen production peaks. Most patients achieve their goals in 1–3 treatments.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Halo Pro painful?
With adequate numbing cream and cooling provided by the device, most patients describe the sensation as warmth and mild prickling — not painful. A vibrating cooling device is used throughout the treatment to minimize discomfort. Most patients tolerate the procedure very well.
How many Halo treatments will I need?
Many patients see significant results after a single treatment. For more advanced sun damage, texture concerns, or anti-aging goals, 2–3 treatments spaced 4–8 weeks apart may be recommended. Annual maintenance treatments help preserve results long-term.
What is the real downtime with Halo?
Expect 3–5 days during which you'll want to stay home. Day 1–2 involves redness and bronzing. Days 3–5 the skin flakes (MENDS) as it sheds treated tissue. By day 5–7, most patients feel comfortable returning to work and social activities with mineral makeup. Plan Halo around a week where you can stay in.
Is Halo Pro safe for darker skin tones?
Halo Pro can be used on a range of skin tones, including Fitzpatrick types III–IV, with appropriate settings adjustments and pre-treatment skincare preparation. During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin type and customize the treatment parameters to minimize the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Can I combine Halo with other treatments?
Yes. Halo Pro pairs exceptionally well with BBL HEROic for a comprehensive skin rejuvenation day — treating both pigment and texture in a single visit. It can also be combined with injectables (Botox, fillers) on the same day or scheduled in sequence with other skin treatments for a full treatment plan.
