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
Sciton® Halo™ Reviews
I had a wonderful experience at Sonterra Dermatology today! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, professional, and efficient. The office is clean, modern, and well-organized, which made the entire visit feel calm and stress-free.The provider took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the appointment. I never felt rushed, and I appreciated how thorough and knowledgeable they were.Highly recommend Sonterra Dermatology to anyone looking for top-quality skin care and a team that truly cares about their patients!
Communication is great with appointment reminders. This was my first time to the dermatologist in 30 years-they were patient with my questions and had great suggestions for skin care regimen.
Teressa did my Halo and was amazing. She’s so kind and thorough. Calmed all my anxieties!!
My daughter recommended the clinic and I went to start annual skin checks and get an estimate on laser treatments for scars. Super friendly staff, techs and doctors. And very professional!!
Sonterra Dermatology was a referral from my PCP for an annual skin cancer screen. Today was my first time visiting and I will not go anywhere else. Dr. Hinojosa and his assistant Val were so personable, professional, and thorough. I was in and out in 30 minutes and that included a birthmark removal. The office also has a variety of cosmetic procedures available which I will be trying next. (Botox and possibly filler). Highly recommend you give them an opportunity to support all of your skin care needs!Terra Gaines

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.
