Hello Im looking to have laser resurfacing. My option is the halo resurfacing or the sciton nanopeel? What is the more intensive of the two lasers? I know ill need a few treatments. Downtime isnt an issue for me. The Dr is a board certfied plastic surgeon. Thanks

Answer: Sciton Halo vs Nanopeel Great question! So much depends on your skin type, goals and tolerance for downtime. It might help to repost with pictures and what you are attempting to address. We even often do both treatments in one session.The Nanopeel is very light - about as deep as 3 microderms in one session. It is good for brightening. If you go deeper it is called a Microlaserpeel and that can do a lot for surface texture and if done really deep, it is TRL or deep resurfacing with about 2 weeks downtime at which point you can get very dramatic changes in pigment (mostly gone) fine lines (mostly gone) tightening and even some of the deep lines like around the mouth.Similarly, Halo is a huge spectrum of intensities from quite light to fairly aggressive. It is always bigger than a Nanolaserpeel, and less than a full TRL deep resurfacing. It is great for moderate downtime (4-7) improvement in pigment, fine lines, crepey texture and pores. With both treatments, we like to do them over top of a BBL for even more improvement in pigment and antiaging.

Answer: Halo vs nanopeel Sciton is the manufacturer of both the Halo laser and the Erbium laser used in the nanopeel. The Halo is more aggressive then the nanopeel. Both lasers can be adjusted for different skin types and problems
