This swelling can often be \u201cdistorting.\u201d In other words, it looks very obvious and you will likely want to stay home. There is often 48 hours of swelling. The swelling is not painful. Once the swelling starts to subside, you may experience redness, itchiness, or light peeling. We provide all necessary wound care to help you get through this part of the healing process. By day 5 to 7 after HALO\u2122 treatment, you are able to wear makeup and may start to see the \u201cglow\u201d that everyone raves about.  We typically see our patients back 4 to 6 weeks after HALO for a synergistic treatment called BroadBand Light\u2122 (BBL\u2122). There is no downtime associated with this procedure and it improves your eventual result. The cost of BBL\u2122 is included in your HALO package.","name":"HALO\u2122 Hybrid Fractional Laser Skin Rejuvenation","procedureType":"NoninvasiveProcedure","howPerformed":"First, we apply numbing cream for 60 minutes. Then, we remove the numbing cream thoroughly. We then begin the laser treatment; the settings used are customized for each patient\u2019s individual goals and desires. During the laser treatment, you will experience burning discomfort. To help with the discomfort, we use a device that blows out very cold air, and we apply cool sterile gauze to the skin. The treatment typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the areas treated.  Most patients see noticeable improvement with one treatment; however, sometimes two treatments lead to better results.","relevantSpecialty":"Dermatology","url":"https:\/\/www.mnfacialplastics.com\/non-surgical\/halo-hybrid-fractional-laser-skin-rejuvenation\/","description":"HALO hybrid fractional skin resurfacing is an advanced treatment for skin rejuvenation. HALO by Sciton is the first-of-its-kind hybrid fractional laser. Utilizing the power of two lasers in one, the HALO laser simultaneously does two things: 1) resurfaces the upper layers of the skin and 2) improves the clarity and health of the deeper layers of skin. Both lasers work to create an efficient laser treatment and effective skin rejuvenation. The result for most patients is smoother, clearer skin that is known to have a \u201cHALO glow.\u201d  Dr. Prischmann\u2019s advanced practice esthetician is highly trained in HALO laser resurfacing. Amy Nelson has completed a preceptorship on HALO with Chris Robb, MD, a dermatologist and thought leader in this specialized treatment.","@id":"https:\/\/www.mnfacialplastics.com\/non-surgical\/halo-hybrid-fractional-laser-skin-rejuvenation\/"}
