Laser Skin Resurfacing Procedure Information
Halo laser treatments are performed in the office as an outpatient procedure with the patient under no or local anesthesia. The patient’s eyes will be protected as the laser wand is passed over the face, neck, chest, and/or hands. After the treatment, a protective ointment will be applied over the skin before the patient leaves to recover at home.
Halo Technology for Laser Skin Resurfacing
The Halo application on the Sciton system is the world’s first hybrid fractional laser with the 1470 nm laser for non-ablative treatments in the deeper layers of the skin and the 2940 nm laser for ablative resurfacing on the surface of the skin. Halo laser skin resurfacing can improve the quality, texture, and overall appearance of the skin from years of environmental damage (sun exposure, smoking). The Halo laser application can treat several skin conditions, such as:
- Scar Revision
- Skin Firming
- Skin Resurfacing
- Skin Texture Improvement
- Wrinkles
Sonterra Dermatology - San Antonio Reviews
Teresa is amazing. She explains everything so thoroughly and answers all my questions. I have been with her years for all my laser treatments and will never go to anyone else. Sonterra is most trustworthy clinic for all your needs!
Always friendly and so helpful with skin care answers.
All of the nurse and the Doctors are extremely nice and thorough. They take extra time to make sure you're comfortable. All of the procedures are explained, as well as the course of treatment. This is the number one place in San Antonio for dermatology. If you need cosmetic, preventative or diagnostic care, this is the clinic of choice. I trust the doctors with my skin care. If you need a dermatologist, this is the place . I certainly will not go anywhere else.
The staff was great and treated me and my husband very well. I trust this practice with my skin care needs.
Slight wait after scheduled appointment time (15 minutes) but they are very professional and display a positive attitude. He explained everything in detail, with positive recommendations for skin care that I had not considered.

What to Expect from Laser Skin Resurfacing
You may see redness and peeling for 1 – 2 weeks after your treatment as the skin forms a scab and begins to heal. In 2 – 8 weeks after the procedure, you should be able to wear makeup to camouflage your skin. You should use sun protection at all times after your treatment and limit direct sun exposure as much as possible. You should talk to Dr. Garcia about when to schedule touch-up appointments and creating a good home skin care routine.
