second session for HALO
I went in about a week ago for second HALO session. It was a more aggressive treatment this time and she actually did BBL for the redness right before the HALO. Experience was painful and very similar to the last treatment. However, since it was more aggressive I do feel like it has been an even more painful process and healing time. My mends have mostly come off still have some around the checks and jawline. My skin texture is looking very much improved! However, my face is very RED. VERY RED still. I tend to get red easily and the last time the redness lasted for at least a month. So I'm assuming it is going to take a couple of months for the redness to go away on my skin. Will let you know how happy I am with the experience and RESULTS in a few months!

Been one week
Been one week. As of right now, and this probably wont change I haven't seen much improvement on the hyperpigmentation I was really hoping would be diminished. My skin does feel soft and like it has a "glow." I'm thinking I would need a second treatment and more aggressive treatment to truly see a difference in the hyperpigmentation.

Instead of the micro needling, you may want to ask your doctor to combine the Sciton BBL along with the Sciton Halo as a duel procedure. The BBL treats hyper pigmentation & redness. I'm having both procedures and I actually just had my 2nd one today. I also only noticed slight improvement after the first procedure, so today he increased the settings for a more aggressive treatment. Hope that helps.

I also had the Halo in columbia, sc around the beginning of Sept. Was hoping for better hyper pigmentation reduction as well. Skin does look more even and have a 'glow'. I also wondered if I needed a 2nd treatment. I have no clue how you went to work the next day because I was scary looking. Not so much from the mends, but the swelling under my eyes! They were slits! I worked from home thank goodness the next day and then had the weekend to recover. Where did u get yours done? Mine was done at Pura. The esthethician did say for some of my darker spots that micro needling would work better. Had never heard that before.

same place. I've heard of micro needling. I might try dermarolling at home basically the same thing just more cost effective. I had actually been looking into dermarolling/micro needling. I just would love to see improvement in the hyperpigmentation of my skin. Do you feel your skin in continuing to improve since the halo laser? Or were the peak results at 2 weeks?

I do feel like for the 1st 2 weeks my skin did glow even though I still had the hyperpigmentation. Doesn't seem to be as 'glowy' after a month. I do feel like my lines are finished somewhat and I hope that continues to improve. The lines above my lip bothered me ( from drinking from diet coke bottles) and they definitely seem softer. Still wondering if I need to try one more but hate spending the money if the results won't be that much better.
I look forward to your update, good luck!
