Halo +BBL for Skin Texture and Redness, Sun Spots Dull Skin - Edina, MN

This halo recovery given it was more "aggressive" 20% ablation and more dense and depth I think - sorry I am not 100% sure on technical - I don't care as I trust my provider who is so knowledgable, kind and conservative - was way MORE to deal with but now at day 5 I am SO HAPPY - this time my TEXTURE is dramactically changed and my skin color so much more even - I shed A LOT and had WAY more MENDS this time and WAY MORE swelling but overall It seems worth it - last time at this point I was discouraged but now I know what to expect and this time around was a better treatment setting for me. Very pleased - and keep in mind my skin was a challenge! - rosacea, melasma, pores, texture, sun damage galore.

Hi there

I had my second Halo yesterday with the same clinic. I am super red and very swollen under my eyes as we did a bit more there. With that everything is the same as last time, just more swelling. Will keep track - it was nice to come here and remind myself that what I look like today is NOT much unlike what I did a year ago.

I pix taken in bathroom with light on no flash same as before phot bare faced. I am a little over one month out and extremely happy. I went in for a one month fu and pix were taken and I was shocked at the before and after...same light , same bare face, same angles yet way a mother skin and more even tone and color. I really think it is hard to see the big picture day to day but in that manner it was obvious. Everyday I feel my skin gets better and better. My fine lines are nearly gone or so diminished it's not even noticeable and I do not wear any face makeup like I used too with heavy foundation plus concealer etc. I am content to walk out like this with my lashes on and some lipgloss (and massive sunscreen of course)
I just think that some of the effect is more gradual in some people like me but I am super pleased. I got a compliment on my skin this week and was shocked!
While not for everybody I am VERY pleased with the outcome. Doctor, staff and now, my skin. I feel more confident. I will probably do this yearly. I thought maybe another one was needed but this being a class act said he felt my results were so great he would not do another now and wait a year. That is awesome in an industry that can prey on vulnerable people's insecurities. I hope this helps someone!
