HALO® Laser Treatments in Dallas, Texas
Illuminate Your Skin with Hybrid Laser Precision at Lily Aesthetics and Wellness
Life in Dallas means sunshine, social events, and a fast pace that keeps you on the go. While the city brings plenty of joy, it also leaves its mark on your skin. Sun exposure, stress, and the natural process of aging create changes that creams and facials cannot fully reverse.
That is where HALO® hybrid fractional laser treatments come in.
At Lily Aesthetics and Wellness, we proudly offer HALO treatments to help you rediscover radiant, youthful skin with minimal downtime.
HALO combines two wavelengths of laser energy in a single session, making it the first treatment of its kind. This dual approach allows us to correct surface concerns like spots and rough texture while also stimulating deep collagen for lasting renewal.
The result is skin that looks luminous, smooth, and refreshed from the inside out.
What Makes HALO Different
Most lasers fall into one of two categories: ablative (which remove tiny channels of skin for dramatic resurfacing) or non-ablative (which heat the deeper layers to stimulate collagen with less recovery). HALO is the first laser to combine both in one treatment.
- The ablative wavelength polishes away dullness, rough patches, and surface irregularities.
- The non-ablative wavelength penetrates more deeply to encourage natural collagen and elastin production.
This hybrid method means you can see visible improvement after just one session while still enjoying the safety and comfort of a gentler laser. HALO truly offers the best of both worlds.
How HALO Works in Simple Terms
Think of your skin like a house. Over time the paint on the outside fades and chips, while the foundation slowly weakens. HALO restores both.
The laser handpiece delivers controlled energy through precise channels. Some of those channels reach the surface to gently clear away spots, fine lines, and uneven tone. Others dive deeper, where they signal your skin to lay down fresh support structures.
As the old surface naturally sheds, a brighter and smoother layer emerges, while the deeper remodeling continues for months.
Your skin looks instantly refreshed but also keeps improving as new collagen forms.
Concerns HALO Can Improve
HALO is known for its versatility. It is chosen by Dallas patients who want a powerful yet safe way to address a wide range of concerns, including:
- Sun damage and uneven pigmentation
- Age spots and freckles
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Rough or enlarged pores
- Acne scars and other textural irregularities
- Dull, tired skin that has lost its glow
- Visible signs of long-term photoaging on the face, neck, chest, or hands
Why Dallas Patients Love HALO
Dallas life often involves outdoor activities, social gatherings, and plenty of sunshine. Even the best sunscreen habits cannot completely prevent the signs of photoaging. HALO was designed specifically to reverse those effects.
Patients love HALO because:
- It delivers impressive results in just one or two sessions.
- Downtime is adjustable. You can choose a lighter setting for a “weekend glow” or a deeper one for more dramatic correction.
- Improvements continue to build for months after the treatment.
- Results look natural, not overdone.
For busy professionals, parents, and anyone juggling a packed Dallas schedule, HALO provides visible transformation without requiring weeks of recovery.
Who Makes a Good Candidate
Most healthy adults who notice changes in skin tone or texture are excellent candidates for HALO. It is especially effective for people with lighter to medium complexions, though many individuals with deeper tones may also benefit when settings are carefully chosen.
You may be a great fit if you want to:
- Reduce the look of brown spots or sun damage
- Smooth rough patches or fine lines
- Minimize the appearance of scars or enlarged pores
- Restore radiance and evenness to your skin
During your consultation at Lily Aesthetics and Wellness, we evaluate your skin type, medical history, and goals to ensure HALO is safe and effective for you.
Areas HALO Can Treat
HALO is not limited to the face. In fact, it is highly effective for several commonly sun-exposed areas that reveal age early.
Popular treatment sites include:
- Face
- Neck
- Chest and décolletage
- Hands
- Arms and shoulders
- Back or legs (for scars or texture concerns)
By addressing multiple regions, HALO can restore balance between your face and body so that all visible skin looks equally refreshed.
Your HALO Experience at Lily Aesthetics and Wellness
Thoughtful Consultation
Every HALO journey begins with a conversation. We take time to understand your skin history, daily routine, and personal goals.
Photographs are often taken to track progress. Together we design a plan that fits your lifestyle, budget, and comfort level.
Gentle Treatment
When you arrive for your session, your skin will be cleansed and numbing cream applied for comfort. The HALO handpiece is then passed over the skin in smooth, even strokes. You may feel warmth and a prickling sensation as the laser delivers its dual energy. Most patients describe the feeling as tolerable, especially with the numbing cream.
A typical treatment takes thirty to sixty minutes depending on the areas included.
After Your Session
Immediately afterward your skin will appear pink or flushed, similar to a sun-kissed look. Over the next few days, tiny brown dots called “MENDS” (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) will appear as the skin renews itself. These dots naturally slough away within about a week, revealing fresh, clear skin beneath.
Makeup can usually be worn within a day or two, and most clients return to normal activities the same day.
How Many Treatments Will I Need
One of the advantages of HALO is that many patients see noticeable improvement after just a single session. However, depending on your starting point and goals, we may recommend a series of two or three treatments spaced a few months apart.
For ongoing maintenance, a yearly HALO session keeps skin bright and slows visible aging.
Results You Can Expect
Patients often describe HALO results as a “new skin effect.”
- A youthful glow that makes makeup optional
- Brighter, more even skin tone
- Smoother surface with smaller-looking pores
- Softening of fine lines and wrinkles
- Fading of sun spots and pigmentation
- Noticeable reduction in scars and roughness
Friends and colleagues often notice that you look well-rested and vibrant, without realizing you had a treatment.
Comfort and Safety
Your comfort and safety are always our top priorities. At Lily Aesthetics and Wellness we:
- Use advanced cooling and numbing to minimize discomfort
- Adjust every setting to your skin type and concern
- Provide detailed aftercare instructions for best healing
- Screen for conditions and medications that increase risk
- Postpone treatment if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have active skin infections
You are cared for by trained professionals who value your wellbeing as much as your results.
Pairing HALO with Other Treatments
HALO is a powerful stand-alone option, but it also pairs beautifully with other therapies for a comprehensive rejuvenation plan.
Depending on your goals we may suggest:
- BroadBand Light (BBL) for additional pigment and redness correction
- Microneedling for targeted collagen stimulation
- Chemical peels for added brightening
- Neurotoxin injections for expression lines
- Dermal fillers for restoring youthful volume
- Medical-grade skincare with antioxidants and SPF to protect your investment
Our goal is to create a plan that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle and brings you results that feel natural and balanced.
Preparing for Your HALO Session
For a smooth HALO® laser treatment experience in Dallas, Texas, please follow these steps:
- Avoid tanning and self-tanners for at least two weeks prior to your appointment.
- Apply sunscreen daily and reapply when outdoors.
- Discontinue retinoids or exfoliating products approximately one week beforehand.
- Inform us of all medications and supplements you are taking.
- Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotion, or fragrance.
Healing and Aftercare
The healing process is straightforward and predictable:
Day 1–2: Pinkness or redness, a sensation of warmth, and mild swelling are common.
Day 2–4: Tiny brown dots begin to appear, giving the skin a “bronzed” look.
Day 4–7: The MENDS naturally flake away, revealing fresh skin.
Day 7+: Radiance becomes noticeable, with continued improvement over weeks.
Aftercare is simple: gentle cleanser, hydrating moisturizer, and broad spectrum sunscreen. Avoid picking, scrubbing, or excessive heat until your skin feels calm.
