When referring to the Halo treatment, Doctors talk of using conservative vs. aggressive treatment methods. What does that mean? I have just had Botox and fillers, but I have brown and red spots and red uneven skin tone. Will one Halo treatment benefit me?
Answer: Halo and BBL combined can maximize your result Halo laser combines two different lasers at once. One removes surface skin while the other heats the deeper layers. The depth of each lasers penetration and the degree of overlap of each pulse can be customized to the patients needs. BBL applies light based therapy to even different layers of the skin and is often combined on the same treatment day for even better results. Highly recommended.Good Luck!

Answer: Halo laser treatment Thanks for this great question. Halo is an excellent resurfacing tool that we have in our office. Based on your pictures I do not think one Halo treatment, even at aggressive treatment settings, will completely correct fine lines / wrinkles and any pigment /vascular irregularities. If you are interested in a one time only laser I would recommend a fractionated, ablative CO2 laser. I would pair both treatments with BBL to optimize correcting pigment / vascular irregularities. If you do not want significant downtime (two weeks) associated with CO2 resurfacing, I would recommend two Halo lasers with reassessment and then likely a third if necessary. At our office we sell these as packages to make it more cost effective. When we refer to aggressive or conservative laser treatments we are referring to the settings of the laser. We can adjust the depth of penetration of the laser, the energy used, and the time over which the energy is distributed. I hope this is helpful.

Answer: Positive results with Halo treatment. Thank you for the pictures and a good question. When doctors talk about aggressive versus conservative treatments, they are talking about a combination of depth the two lasers are programmed to reach and the density or how close together the laser beams are spaced. We use different settings based on the treatment goals.

Answer: Halo/BBL Thanks for the great question and the photos. I also combine BBL with Halo pretty routinely in my practice. I think that it maximizes the reduction of the brown pigment in the skin. Looking at your photos, you will definitely get an improvement with a single treatment, but you will likely require a couple of treatments for most of the pigment to be gone. An aggressive treatment often times means that the laser will be treating a higher percentage of the skin at a great depth. You are a good candidate for a more aggressive treatment. Best of luck!~Dr. Sieber

Answer: How Many Halo Treatment for Best Results Great question - you are an ideal candidate for Halo treatment! In our office, we always combine BBL (Broad Band Light) with our Halo treatments. It doesn't add anything to the downtime, but you get much more improvement in browns, reds and antiaging than you would with Halo alone.
