Sciton HALO Hybrid Fractional Laser Training

Laser training with a focus on high-demand treatments will greatly affect your bottom line, and Sciton HALO fractional laser training is designed to meet exactly that kind of demand. 

Introduced in 2014, HALO is the world’s first and only fractional laser able to perform ablative and non-ablative skin rejuvenation at the same time which gives you the best of both worlds: ablative results with non-ablative downtime.

“Halo changes the paradigm,” said clinical investigator Chris Robb, MD, PhD. “The unique dual wavelengths deliver an unprecedented ability to customize treatments for each individual. Every patient has different needs in terms of sun damage and downtime. With Halo, I can finally have the best of both non-ablative and ablative wavelengths. I can precisely dial in the exact treatment patients need for amazing results within the desired downtime.”

What To Expect During Treatment

A HALO treatment typically takes around two hours to complete, depending on the size of the treatment area, and may be performed using a topical numbing cream to ensure client comfort throughout. At the end of the treatment, a cooling device is used to bring the skin back to a comfortable temperature.

5 Common Questions Clients Ask About HALO Treatments

1. How many treatments will I need? 

You can choose how many sessions to have. Discuss your goals with your laser tech — you might opt for one or two more aggressive treatments, or multiple less-aggressive treatments spread out over a longer period.

2. What results can I expect? 

HALO is a complete skin rejuvenation treatment. Expect improvements in overall tone and texture, removal of discoloration, reduced fine lines, smaller pore size, and skin reflectivity and glow.

3. What does HALO feel like? 

Most clients experience little discomfort thanks to topical anesthetic and integrated cooling technology. Afterward, you may feel warm for about 15 to 30 minutes, or longer with deeper treatment levels.

4. When will I see results? 

Results typically begin appearing two to five days after treatment, with skin continuing to improve over time. Many clients report the greatest pigmentary improvement within the first two to three weeks.

5. When can I resume normal activities? 

For the first 24 hours, follow your laser tech’s instructions to keep your skin protected. After that, you should be able to return to your normal routine.

6. Can HALO be combined with other treatments? 

Yes. Because HALO addresses both surface texture and deeper collagen structure, it pairs well with treatments like dermal fillers or neuromodulators for clients seeking a more comprehensive rejuvenation plan, and it’s frequently offered alongside other Sciton technologies as part of a broader treatment menu.

Sciton Also Offers BBL

HALO isn’t the only in-demand Sciton treatment worth knowing. Sciton’s Forever Young BBL™ (BroadBand Light) is a separate, equally popular device that addresses concerns and offers benefits as follows::

• Anti-aging
• Anti-lesion
• Anti-acne benefits
• Pore size improvement
• Skin pigmentation
• Uneven skin
• Rosacea
• Fine lines 
• Wrinkles
• Acne
• Cystic breakouts
• Dark or red spots
• Spider veins 
• General skin tightening
• Treating pigment concerns that Botox alone isn’t designed to address

A BBL treatment typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes to perform, meaning a busy laser technician treating 25 to 30 clients in a day can generate significant revenue for both themselves and their practice.
