Are you seeking a treatment for fine lines, sun spots, or dull skin that is effective without requiring significant downtime? At Lickstein Plastic Surgery, we are pleased to offer Halo to patients from Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter, Port St. Lucie, Tequesta, North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, and Wellington. Halo is a customizable, non-surgical laser treatment that can address a range of skin concerns to give you your glow back. Halo repairs the effects of aging and environmental damage in a way that other lasers can’t because Halo offers targeted treatment at precise depths.

Benefits of Halo Laser Treatment

  • Each treatment is personalized to meet your specific needs
  • Diminishes visible signs of aging
  • Improves skin tone and texture for a youthful glow
  • Minimizes enlarged pores
  • Customizable treatments allow for flexibility in scheduling and downtime

How Does Halo Work?

Halo is a hybrid fractional laser. The first of its kind, this innovative laser combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths. Lasers that only use ablative wavelengths may not address visible signs of aging and they require lengthy downtime; lasers with non-ablative wavelengths are gentler but require many treatments to deliver noticeable results. By combining the two wavelengths with a diode non-ablative laser and an ablative yttrium aluminum garnet laser, Halo gives you the best of both worlds – beautiful results with little to no downtime.

Is Halo Right For Me?

Halo is well-suited for a broad range of patients because it can be customized to treat a wide variety of concerns, from minimizing enlarged pores to improving uneven skin tone. A lighter Halo treatment may be right for patients who want a refreshed look the very next day, while a deeper Halo treatment can offer full rejuvenation with just a few days of downtime.

If you want skin that is naturally luminous, Halo may be right for you! Contact our office for a consultation with our doctors to find out if you are a candidate.

Halo Laser Patient Reviews

"My skin now feels like it did back in high school. It is so smooth and luminous and I feel like I can’t see the pores on my face anymore. I’ve never felt and looked better."

"The best part of my Halo treatment was how easy it was! I have done a few laser and light treatments in the past, but nothing came close. To be able to have a treatment with minimal discomfort, be able to go out the next day and still get results was amazing!"

"Over the years, I have always worried about how much damage I’ve done to my skin. My freckles turned into brown spots and my pores were large. Halo not only made my skin feel and look amazing but it also reversed the internal sun damage. Halo hit the spot!"

We believe the best results are born from an in-depth discussion of patient goals, followed by a customized treatment plan.
