Is the treatment painful?
Answer: Does Halo hurt? When adequate amount of topical numbing cream is applied(we use a 23/7 cream), the typical patient during treatment describes the pain level as a 2 or 3 out of 10. Pretty easy. Once the treatment is completed, you will then go through several hours where you 'feel the burn'. Ice packs, cold air are all that is needed to manage getting through those first couple hours. Once the skin 'seals' it is painless and a very predictable healing process. Most of my patients claim a Halo hurts less than full face corrective BBL.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Halo Laser Treatment is Well Tolerated Hi there, thank you for your question. Halo Pro laser has a reputation for being more comfortable than other resurfacing lasers. I received this treatment myself recently, and I found this to be true. In general, the discomfort is related to the aggressiveness of the treatment settings. The higher the settings the stronger the sensation of heat. That sensation is typically well managed by numbing gel, and only lasts for a few hours post treatment. I recommend seeking out an experienced, board-certified dermatologist who specializes in laser treatment. They can help you understand the understand the full details of treatment and recovery.

Answer: Halo Treatment The Halo treatment itself is managed will with over-the-counter pain relievers and topical numbing. Once the treatment is complete, patients normally feel the discomfort of heat radiating from the skin for the first couple of hours. Once the heat is gone there is no longer any discomfort. Patient do really well with this procedure and I am sure you will too!

Answer: What do Scallops feel like? I'll be totally honest here. When I had it done to me, I couldn't help but picture a seared scallop. At first, I didn't feel much, but it built and built and for awhile I think it hurt. Afterward, my face was hot and I craved sitting in front of the Zimmer chiller for as long as possible to get rid of the heat. I then drove home with the A/C blowing on my face. I had two beers and within two hours I felt totally fine. The next day I went about my business as if nothing happened. So really, we're talking two hours of feeling really hot, then fine. You should also know that when I get sick I'm exceedingly useless compared to my wife who went all natural for delivery number 3, so my colorful description of 3 minutes of pain during the last bit of the procedure and the burning afterwards might deserve to be taken with a grain of salt.

Answer: Halo Laser Treatment Prior to a Halo treatment, a numbing cream is typically applied (however we have an ability to provide a stronger anesthetic if needed). The patient will have slight discomfort from the treatment and may warm post treatment (as if they had a minor sunburn).
