The HALO® Effect: A Smarter Way to Rebuild Radiant, Healthy Skin
When it comes to visible skin rejuvenation, timing and precision matter. As we enter our late 30s and beyond, changes in collagen, tone, and texture become more noticeable - and over-the-counter skincare can only do so much.
That’s where HALO®, the world’s first hybrid fractional laser, comes in. It’s the treatment we recommend when your skin is ready for something that truly resets its structure, without compromising on downtime or comfort.
At Interior Dermatology Centre, HALO is part of our commitment to evidence-based, physician-led rejuvenation. It’s not about changing your face - it’s about restoring healthy, youthful skin that reflects how you feel inside.
What Makes HALO Different
HALO stands out as the world’s first hybrid fractional laser, meaning it treats both the surface and deeper layers of your skin at the same time. Unlike traditional lasers that treat only the surface, HALO uses two wavelengths at once - one to renew the upper layers of skin and another to remodel collagen deep below. This dual action delivers comprehensive results with less downtime than older resurfacing options.
What you can expect from HALO:
Visibly smoother, more even skin texture
Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
Reduction in sun damage, and pigment
Improved firmness and collagen density
A long-lasting, healthy glow
Downtime: Typically 5-7 days of redness and peeling—easy to manage and conceal with light makeup.
Frequency: 1–2 sessions per year depending on the condition of your skin and your goals.
As with any medical procedure, results vary. A consultation with a board-certified dermatologist ensures the right approach for your skin.
HALO vs. Other Lasers
You may have heard of MOXI® or BroadBand Light™ (BBL) - both are excellent treatments for prevention and early correction.
MOXI gently brightens tone and smooths texture with no downtime - ideal for maintenance or early collagen stimulation.
BBL targets redness, sunspots, and pigment for clear, even skin tone.
But when it’s time to go deeper - to rebuild collagen, smooth fine lines, and refresh your overall structure - HALO is the next step. It bridges the gap between prevention and transformation.
Why Our Patients Love HALO
HALO results speak for themselves. Clinical studies show noticeable increases in collagen and elastin, with visible radiance returning within a week. Most patients notice a refreshed glow within a week but the real magic unfolds over time - your skin keeps improving for months as new collagen develops.
And because HALO is physician-led and fully customized, treatments can be tailored to each patient’s goals, comfort level, and downtime tolerance.
Every HALO treatment at Interior Dermatology Centre is performed under the direction of a board-certified Dermatologist, ensuring your plan is as safe as it is effective.
We design treatment protocols that complement your lifestyle, season, and skin biology - so your results are both natural and long-lasting.
