WORTH IT
As a 51 year old who spent way too much time loving the sun without protection, I really wanted to refresh my look but more importantly reverse the sun damage. An RN friend of mine said it looks like a clear canvas. I love how bright my skin is. I love how much healthier my skin not just looks but IS! I was in the 4% percentile for sun damage. Post laser 2 weeks, I was in the 88%. I'm so happy with the improved health of my skin. It's not just the look of my skin, it really is knowing that my skin is brighter because it is healthier.

Dr. Sani was so wonderful throughout the entire procedure. He's very thorough in setting appropriate expectations. He's so caring and genuinely concerned about my well being throughout. Not just my results but how I was doing. He, himself checked on me daily. From color matching post laser Oxygenetics foundation to the post laser kit he sent home, to follow up appointments, Dr. Sani and his staff are amazing! Per Dr. Sani's recommendation, I took an anit-viral med to avoid any blistering. I learned that I am sensitive to heavy hydrating moisturizers and that caused a little irritation but once I stopped the cream and opted for Oxygenetics by day the irritation immediately resolved.

Thank you @gladbee!! This is 1 treatment of Halo + BBL. I wanted an overall improvement. My skin was getting very dull looking, more fine lines, loss of elasticity. My skin texture has improved greatly, skin is brighter, fine lines have diminished greatly. I've also noticed that my skin seems to look better and brighter every week.

can you provide details on what you paid for the Halo + BBL? Dr Sani's rate card is $1800 for a Halo treatment which is 35% above the published RealSelf average of $1175. I'd love to have this treatment but would not be wiling to pay the high prices. Your results look great.

In my opinion, it's worth it. I've had botox and fillers in the past but Halo improves your skin health and your skin continues to look better as time goes on. I've had a waitress say you have beautiful skin, a male friend said your skin looks amazing. It's definitely a noticeable difference!

I just had a Halo done yesterday for the 2nd time, and I totally love the results!!! Last year I was super swelled up for days. They gave me prednisone to help with the swelling this time. So far, 24 hours after treatment its not too bad. Just still HOT!! But believe me, it's totally worth the money, and I will continue to do a Halo once per/year as long as I can. You are going to love love love your skin even more months from now!!

Thank you @mic65 I do LOVE the results!!! Unlike most procedures, this one continues to improve your skin. Out of everything I've done so far, this is by far the best!
