Halo Body near Minneapolis
Halo is a hybrid laser that produces fractional ablative results with non-ablative downtime by applying both wavelengths in a single pass. Ablative lasers work by removing the outermost layers of dead and damaged skin, while non-ablative lasers pass through the skin’s upper layers to heat the deeper tissues, stimulating collagen.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is Halo Body uncomfortable?
This varies from patient to patient. Some find it to have no discomfort. Some find it to be mildly uncomfortable. Others find it to be very hot and prickly.
- How long will I feel warm?
The first ten to fifteen minutes are the most uncomfortable. Gradually the heat dissipates and will be totally gone in about two to three hours.
- What is used for pain?
We apply topical numbing for an hour prior to the procedure, and for most patients, it is sufficient to control pain. If needed, we can offer you Nitrous Oxide (“laughing gas”). We also may prescribe a mild relaxing medication in certain cases.
- What should I expect right after the treatment?
The treated area will be red for the first three days (longer if the treatment is more aggressive) and will feel like a sunburn. On the second and third days, as the dead skin cells move toward the top layer of the skin, you will notice fine little dark dots that may last up to two weeks before resolving. Your skin will have some mild peeling and feel a little like sandpaper on days two and three.
- What do I use for after care?
We will provide complimentary skin care products with instructions to use for the next two weeks.
- Can I peel off those little brown dots?
We do not recommend aggressive exfoliating of the skin as it is healing. However, gentle brushing with a washcloth when cleansing the skin is acceptable to reduce flaking.
- When do I see the results?
As soon as 1 to 2 weeks after the Halo treatment, you may see results. The stimulation of hyaluronic acid, in addition to better light reflectivity of the skin, contribute to this wonderful result. You will continue to appreciate pleasant changes for at least three months after the treatment.
- How often can I do a Halo treatment?
We recommend waiting at least one month between Halo procedures.
- Is the Halo good for darker skin tones?
Yes, Halo can be used on most patients with darker skin.
