Is it considered safe to have the Sciton Halo treatment performed by a licensed and trained esthetician or should the procedure be performed by an M.D.?
Answer: Level of Training to Provide Laser Procedures As far as legality goes, this varies widely state by state, but it really shouldn't be about the law, but who is going to do the best job on your face. It really comes down to training and experience, experience, experience. In our clinic, I did the original protocol research on Halo laser and as a physician, I personally perform all of our Halo treatments. This allows me the most control, to get patients the very best results.

Answer: Qualifications to perform Halo Laser treatment? Thank you for your question! Our laser technicians have had extensive training through Sciton, the Halo manufacturer, and with our Board Certified Plastic surgeons. These treatments are performed in our state of the art facility after a complimentary consultation is scheduled to assess the patient's skin tone, type & texture. Good luck with this amazing procedure!

Answer: Who performs Halo Thanks for the great question. Much of who is able to operate lasers and other in-office devices is dictated by state laws. I personally perform all of my Halo treatments as I find myself often tweeting the settings to get the patient the best results possible. Most aestheticians if they are operating lasers still need to be over seen by a MD who acts as a medical director. This doesn't mean that you'll ever see the Dr though. My opinion is that as a patient it's always best to see someone who will still be able to take care of you even if something goes wrong. Best of luck and I hope you love your results!~Dr. Sieber

Answer: HALO and legislation Depends on the State and Country. With all due respects, HALO is designed as an entry level superficial treatment with preset settings. This means it can be tailored to a minor degree to your skin concerns. I do own Scition devices, and I absolutely stand by the company, but the reality is this 30/70 rule. 30% laser reputation, 70% is due to the operator. Always find a Specialist centre with many, many laser devices, this way a treatment can be tailored to your needs rather than shoe boxed for a device. HALO is so simple to work anyone with a tiny bit of physics knowledge can perform the procedure (press a button), however for the best results, its about a method, not a device. Dr Davin Lim.
