HALO®

Anyone ready to enhance their skin’s appearance, irrespective of age or skin type, is an ideal candidate. A consultation with a Tru Beauty by Trevor expert will ascertain your eligibility.

Initial results are typically visible between two and five days post-treatment, with continued enhancement over time.

The effects of HALO® can last for years, especially with proper skin care and UV protection. Periodic maintenance treatments are advised to sustain the benefits.

Post-treatment, you might experience mild swelling and redness, reminiscent of a sunburn sensation, which usually subsides within three to four days.

Prior to the treatment, it’s essential to avoid sun exposure and certain skincare products as directed by your practitioner. Post-treatment, adhere to the specific care guidelines provided by Tru Beauty by Trevor Medical Spa to optimize results.

The procedure is tailored to your needs. A topical anesthetic may be applied for comfort, and the treatment duration typically ranges from 30 to 90 minutes, contingent on the area being addressed.

Halo is the first hybrid fractional laser using non-ablative and ablative laser wavelengths. The outcomes are based on the depth and density of the treatment taking into account your skin concerns, the health of your skin, and your desired recovery time. Response and recovery can vary after a Halo fractional treatment.
