HALO™ Hybrid Fractional Laser

GET THE HALO GLOW!

Riva MEDSPA is pleased to offer the one-of-a-kind Sciton Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser treatment, one of the most innovative laser skin resurfacing procedures available. As the world's first Hybrid Fractional Laser, Halo delivers both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to the same microscopic treatment zone.

Over time, your skin can lose its youthful glow due to sun exposure and your body's natural aging process. As a result, your body may develop sun spots, fine lines, and lose that natural healthy glow. Previous lasers couldn't effectively remove this damage, because the treatment was either too shallow or too deep. Halo eliminates years of damage by precisely targeting the right depth. Halo restores the luminous glow you had when you were younger.

Great Results with Minimal Downtime

In the past, you had to choose between a procedure that offered really great results but required a lengthy recovery, or a procedure with a fast recovery but marginal results. Now with Halo you get the best of both worlds: great results with minimal downtime. Halo combines deep dermal rejuvenation with epidermal renewal for a combined synergistic effect you can't get with any other treatment. Halo creates beautiful results without the downtime of more aggressive treatments.

Halo Hybrid Treatments are customized to precisely target years of damage to your skin, including:

Discoloration
Sun damage
Visible signs of aging
Uneven skin tone
Enlarged pores
Poor texture
Fine lines
Scarring

PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

'My skin now feels like it did back in high school. It is so smooth and luminous and I feel like I can't see the pores on my face anymore. I've never felt and looked better.'

Clayton: Crystal Bay, NV

"The best part of my Halo treatment was how easy it was! I have done a few laser and light treatments in the past, but nothing came close. To be able to have a treatment with minimal discomfort, be able to go out the next day and still get results was amazing!'

Gina: Incline Village, CA

"Over the years, I have always worried about how much damage I've done to my skin. My freckles turned into brown spots and my pores were large. Halo not only made my skin feel and look amazing but it also reversed the internal sun damage. Halo hit the spot!'

Maria: San Jose, CA

PHYSICIAN TESTIMONIALS

'With Halo, I can achieve results which I would have only expected from an ablative fractional laser, but get downtimes that I would normally see with a non-ablative fractional laser. It really is the best of both worlds.'

Jason Pozner, MD, FACS - Plastic Surgeon
The Founder and Co-owner of Sanctuary Medical Center in Florida

'Halo changes the paradigm. The unique dual wavelength delivers an unprecedented ability to customize treatments for each individual. Every patient has different needs in terms of sun damage and downtime. With Halo, I can finally have the best of both non-ablative and ablative wavelengths. I can precisely dial in the exact treatment patients need for amazing results within the desired downtime.'

COMMON QUESTIONS

What results can I expect?

Halo is a complete skin rejuvenation treatment. You will see improvements in overall tone and texture in addition to significant removal of discoloration, reduction in fine lines (with hybrid treatment), reduced pore size, skin reflectivity and glow.

How many treatments do you need?

What's great about Halo is that you can choose how many treatments you want! Discuss with your Riva clinician your needs, and you can choose to have one or two more aggressive treatments or have multiple treatments that are less aggressive and achieve a similar goal over a longer period of time.

What happens during the treatment?

Thirty minutes to an hour before the treatment your Riva clinician will place a topical anesthetic on your skin to reduce the sensation during the procedure. The area will be measured with motion tracking technology to ensure the area is treated evenly. The clinician will treat each measured section by uniformly rolling the Halo handpiece over the skin until the system recognizes the treatment is complete.

What does Halo feel like?

With a topical anesthetic and integrated cooling technology, most patients experience very little discomfort. It's often described as a feeling of heat with occasional prickling sensations, but generally comfortable. After the treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 15 to 30 minutes or longer with deeper treatment levels.

How soon after my treatment can I return to normal activities?

For the first 24 hours you should keep your skin protected according to your Riva clinician's instructions, but after that you should be able to go about your normal activities. After the first 24 hours your skin will begin to peel, but you will be able to put on makeup. For a facial treatment, you will see very little change on the first day. After two to three days you will develop a light bronzing appearance. By day three or four your skin will peel, revealing your new skin beneath.

When will I see results?

You will see initial results between two and five days after your Halo treatment, but your skin will continue to improve over time. Most patients see the greatest pigmentary improvement in the first two to three weeks. This is followed by a dermal regeneration phase that continues to improve for months.

How long will my results last?

Your Halo results will last for years to come, but you should continue to keep your skin protected at all times using UV sunscreen to protect your new, healthy skin. Each additional Halo treatment you get will only improve the results, giving you even better looking skin. Riva recommends pre and post usage of our medical grade skincare products that have been shown to complement the Halo procedure, producing better and longer-lasting results.
