Halo + Beard - hair growth.

Great question!  Halo on its own should not permanently impact your beard growth at all, so it is safe to treat your full face.  That said, you will need to shave off your beard in order to have the treatment on your lower face, and you will not be able to shave while your skin is healing.  Also, Halo is often combined with BBL treatments, and BBL treatments can impact hair growth.  So if you opt to have BBL done as well, I would recommend avoiding the beard area with that treatment.  Best of luck! 

The Halo laser will not affect hair growth. However, to properly perform the procedure on the full face, shaving will be necessary. 

The Halo laser does not remove your hair. However, if you want to keep a full beard then you would just get your upper face done. If you choose to shave the beard, then the provider can treat your whole entire face. It's your choice.

Great question. Halo does not target the pigment in hair follicles, only water so it is my go-to treatment for guys who have sun damage or desire skin improvement in areas where they don't want to lose hair (generally scalps and beards, but even hands and forearms. You will want to shave the area before your treatment though as stubble can interfere with the laser/skin interface and rollers. Hair will regrow as you heal in from the treatment at your usual rate of beard growth.

Halo should not affect your beard growth. Another treatment that I often do with Halo is BBL and that can affect beard growth so if you are opting to add that treatment, I would avoid the beard area for that aspect of the treatment but not for the Halo. Good luck!Dr. Quenby Erickson
