Halo Laser - update

WORTH IT$995
The downtown was rough. The day after the treatment I was a swollen mess. Swelling went down before bed but came right back the next morning. Needless to say, I was house bound. I was unable to go into work on Monday the 4th day after Halo. The swelling around my eyelids left by the Tuesday but my face and lower eyes were still swollen. My first day of looking 'like myself" one week and one day after treatment.

Thanks for the update. Is your swelling completely gone now? 

The swelling is all gone now but it took about 10 days to finally look like myself. I could not go through it again if the same swelling resulted each time. For me once was enough.
Wow! I wonder if you had some kind of reaction? I’m going to get a halo treatment and now I’m a little nervous!
My reaction was normal, some people are even worse than I was. My skin looks good but don't think I could do it again, can't go through with the swelling again. How was your treatment
Whenever I have a laser treatment, I request avoidance of the entire eye area. Not only is the swelling brutal, but the risk to eyes worries me.

Great Staff

I didn't like the signs of aging so I consulted with APT. I purchased Skintyte and one Halo laser treatment. Skintyte was painless, unlike Thermage. This week I went for Halo treatment. It wasn't painful just uncomfortalble on my forehead during last pass. At the end, my face was HOT unbelievably HOT. I drove home with the airconditioning one with the vents pointed at my face. The severe heat ended in about 2.5 hours. The next day, OMG my eyes were so swollen I knew not to over use an ice pack. I was looking less swollen at bed time but the next morning my eyes were worst. It is now 1pm and eyes are still swollen. I know it is temporary but panicking as the swelling must go away by Monday! I will post updates
