HALO by Sciton – the world’s first hybrid fractional laser.
Exclusively available at Dermology Sandton—the only clinic in Africa with this elite technology—HALO delivers results that are visibly transformational, and backed by science.
But here’s what most people don’t talk about: HALO comes with some downtime. And that’s exactly why it works so well.
Let’s dive into what HALO does, what to expect during recovery, and why thousands of skin experts around the world call it the gold standard in skin rejuvenation.
What Makes HALO So Unique?
HALO is the first hybrid fractional laser that delivers both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in a single pass.
That means:
-
The ablative wavelength resurfaces the skin by removing old, damaged layers.
-
The non-ablative wavelength stimulates collagen deep in the dermis without disrupting the surface.
This dual-action approach means you get the best of both worlds: long-term collagen stimulation and fast skin resurfacing, all in one treatment.
What Does HALO Treat?
HALO is incredibly versatile and suitable for all skin types (when performed by trained professionals).
It treats:
✔ Fine lines and wrinkles
✔ Sun damage and pigmentation
✔ Enlarged pores
✔ Uneven skin tone and texture
✔ Acne scars and surface scarring
✔ General dullness and ageing skin
Whether you’re looking to reverse the clock or future-proof your skin, HALO delivers noticeable improvement, with results that continue to build over time.
The HALO Downtime Breakdown: What to Expect
Yes, HALO comes with some downtime—and it’s a sign that your skin is doing the work.
NOTE: Everyone heals differently. Downtime is highly depending on the strength of HALO received, condition treated and inflammation present amongst other factors.
Here’s what a typical recovery journey looks like:
Day 1–2:
Heat and tightness
Your skin will feel hot (like sunburn) for a few hours post-treatment. Redness and swelling are common and expected. A sandpaper-like texture may begin to develop.
Day 3–4:
Bronze, flaking skin
This is when your “MENDS” (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) appear. Skin looks bronzed or darkened as it begins to flake and shed. This is your old skin making way for the new.
Day 5–7:
Peeling and reveal
By now, most of the shedding is complete. Skin starts to feel softer and look fresher, though you may still see mild redness.
Week 2 onward:
Dewey, refinement, and healing
Skin tone becomes more even, texture is smoother, and overall complexion looks renewed. Collagen production continues for months after.
Why the Downtime is Worth It
HALO isn’t a quick fix. It’s a deep corrective treatment that gets to the root of:
-
Sun-induced ageing
-
Environmental damage
-
Structural skin changes
-
Collagen loss
It gives you more than just a “surface-level polish”—it triggers true dermal remodelling, improving skin quality from the inside out. That’s why top dermatologists and laser specialists consider HALO the gold standard in fractional laser technology, globally.
One treatment per year is often enough for long-term skin health and radiance.
Add EXOSOMES to your HALO to cut downtime in half!
