What Is HALO Laser Resurfacing by Sciton?

Long-term sun exposure, or just the effects of living your life each and every day, can take a toll on your skin. Visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles, age spots, discoloration, and skin laxity, can cause you to look for an effective treatment for skin rejuvenation. For anyone looking to treat sun damage and boost the production of collagen, HALO can address both of these needs with one treatment. HALO Laser Resurfacing by Sciton is a complete skin rejuvenation treatment that significantly improves skin quality, tone, and texture.

Are You a Candidate for HALO Laser Resurfacing?

Once you leave your 20s behind, you will see the first signs of aging appearing on your face. Sun damage, fine lines around your eyes, uneven skin tone, and enlarged pores are common issues. Maybe you struggled with acne in your younger years, and as a result, you live with lingering scars that no cosmetics can hide. If you are looking for a non-surgical treatment with quick results and minimal downtime, HALO resurfacing in Scottsdale & Paradise Valley might be the perfect treatment for you. HALO is versatile and safe for men and women of all skin types.

What Can I Expect During My HALO Laser Resurfacing Treatment?

When you arrive for your HALO treatment in Scottsdale, your expert aesthetician will apply a medical-grade topical numbing cream to the treatment area. The topical cream has had time to allow for comfortable treatment, and the HALO laser skin resurfacing will begin. Your aesthetician will use the work in a crisscross pattern on the damaged areas of your skin. The HALO device’s technology has built-in safety measures and recognizes when the treatment is complete.

How Long Will My Appointment Take?

Each patient is unique and has different skincare goals. Depending on the procedure, timing can vary, but typically, you should be in and out within two hours.

Will I Experience any Pain With My HALO Treatment?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort with a topical anesthetic and the HALO’s integrated cooling technology. You may feel a slight prickling sensation as the device crisscrosses over your skin.


Are There Any Side Effects of Laser Resurfacing?

Once your treatment is over, you might feel some sensitivity in the area. Your skin may appear a bit flushed, similar to a minor sunburn. There could be a bit of swelling that will resolve itself quickly.

Will I Need More Than one HALO Laser Resurfacing Treatment?

HALO is a complete skin rejuvenation treatment. The HALO laser technology is significantly more advanced and flexible than earlier skin treatment options, which means it can take fewer treatments than in the past to address most issues.

You can choose to have one or two more aggressive treatments or decide that you’d rather take your time with a less aggressive approach, but choose to undergo milder treatments more often. Determining the number of treatments that you need will be determined with the help of Dr. Shapiro.

When Will I See Results?

After your first HALO treatment, you will start to see improvement in your skin’s tone and texture in two to five days. Progress will continue to build with most patients seeing the most dramatic improvements in about three weeks. Significant improvement in your skin’s tone and texture can be seen with just one HALO treatment. A series of treatments is typically recommended for certain issues, such as acne scars.

I’m 22 & I recently had a rhino/ septoplasty done by Dr.Shapiro and also some facial graphing and a fat transfer to my lips. & I’m over the moon with my results! Dr.Shapiro and his team were so kind and professional through the entire experience. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic they made my dream nose come to life. & took every precaution to make sure we’re all safe by checking temperatures and wearing face masks. Being in the hands of someone with so much knowledge and experience made it so easy for me to go into surgery. I will forever trust Dr.Shapiro and his team with anything I decided to do in the future! Thank you so much!

Always do your own research and interview different surgeons but be assured that Dr Shapiro will give you what you ask for. I’m delighted with my results and I had a full face lift, eyes and neck done, and fat transfer to eyes and nasolabial folds. I wish I had done it years ago. Office staff is wonderful and attentive too. Can’t say enough kind words.

Words cannot express how GRATEFUL I am to Dr. Shapiro!!! I had a rhinoplasty done by Dr. Shapiro 2 months ago and it has truly changed my life. My nose looks very natural and I could not be more happy with my results. After years of research and various consultations with plastic surgeons (in and out of state) I knew I had found the one when I met Dr. Shapiro!

During my first consultation with Dr. Shapiro he pointed out all the things that bothered me about my nose before I even brought it to his attention. That’s when I knew he and I were on the same page about what I wanted. He is EXTREMELY detail-oriented and a perfectionist (which is exactly what you want when undergoing any procedure especially if it’s on your face). He truly listens to you and makes you feel so comfortable. The thing I love the most about Dr. Shapiro’s technique is that he works with what you have and enhances it to its maximum potential, he is truly an artist. Dr. Shapiro’s makes it seem as though you never had any work done. His work is astounding, he gives you the nose you were supposed to be born with but even better! The before and after pictures of his patients will leave you speechless. When it comes to plastic surgeons there is truly no doctor that can compete with Dr. Shapiro’s beyond amazing work!

If you’re looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon I would recommend him 100%. I’m so in love with my results and I’m extremely lucky to have found him. Dr. Shapiro I seriously cant thank you enough!!!!

Dr. Shapiro and his staff are your top choice for plastic surgery in Arizona. He listens attentively to your specific desires and explains what can honestly happen to meet your personal goals. Everything about the experience at his office is what you would expect from a top surgeon and professional medical staff. Conveniently, the Skin Klinic inside his office offers the best aesthetic services to really complete the package of an even more beautiful you. You always feel welcomed in his office and can ask as many questions as you need regarding procedures, products, financing, and after surgery care. I have had several procedures performed by Dr. Shapiro and I must say if you want the body that you dream of that cannot be accomplished by diet and exercise then you need to make time for a consultation. I struggled for most of my life with a poor body image and after many years of trying to change things on my own I finally decided to make an appointment and was forever on a different path. I have amazing proportionate breasts now and my thighs are the thighs of my dreams. Life is truly different when you are content with your body image. That is not to say I was trying to look like someone else or had a false hope; it is about being happy in your own skin. Dr. Shapiro made that possible for me and I cannot thank him enough for his expertise, caring nature, and professionalism. His quality and follow on care are the best you can invest in for your ideal body image. Do something wonderful for yourself and allow him the opportunity to exceed all expectations as he did for me :)

Dr. Shapiro knocked it out of the park!!! I could not be more thrilled with the results of my breast augmentation with lift. Not only are the results amazing, but the process from start to finish far exceeded my expectations. Dr. Shapiro and his surgical nurse Sage Hallman work as an amazing team and will make you feel like you're their only patient. Experience matters and that is exactly what you will get at Shapiro Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Thank you Doc , you have truly changed my life in the best way!
