Schedule appointmentOver time, sun exposure, environmental pollution, and the natural aging process leave their mark on our skin. The HALO® laser combines two types of lasers in one innovative technology—for gentle yet effective skin renewal with visibly fresh results.
Dr. Rosalia LuketinaOur skin changes over the years—fine lines, pigment spots, enlarged pores, or a dull complexion are often caused by UV radiation and environmental influences. HALO® is the first hybrid fractional laser that combines two different wavelengths simultaneously. This allows both superficial and deeper skin layers to be treated in a single session.
What makes it special is that while the upper skin structure is renewed, collagen production is stimulated in the deeper layers. This not only smooths the skin on the surface, but also strengthens it from within. The treatment is suitable for the face, neck, décolleté, and hands—precisely those areas that are particularly affected by light-induced skin aging.
Just a few days after HALO® treatment, the skin appears fresher, smoother, and more even. Pigment spots fade, pores appear refined, and the complexion takes on a new glow. At the same time, the skin structure improves sustainably as deeper processes such as collagen and cell regeneration are stimulated. The effect is natural—no mask-like result, but healthy, regenerated skin with more radiance. Since UV radiation damages the cell structure in the long term, HALO® is particularly well suited for treating light-induced skin changes. Acne scars, redness, fine wrinkles, or an uneven complexion can be significantly reduced—depending on the skin type and treatment goal.
Before the HALO® treatment, a consultation will take place during which your skin will be analyzed in detail. Based on this, we will determine how the treatment can be optimally tailored to your needs. You should avoid intense sun exposure for 3 to 4 weeks prior to the treatment. You should also refrain from using tanning beds, self-tanners, and chemical peels in order to avoid unnecessary irritation of the skin.
About an hour before the start, we apply an anesthetic cream to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. An integrated cooling system enhances this effect. As the laser glides over the skin, many patients experience a warm sensation similar to intense sunbathing. The HALO® laser combines two wavelengths to treat both the surface and deeper layers of the skin at the same time, making the method particularly effective.
Immediately after the session, the skin is usually reddened and may be slightly swollen. A feeling of warmth often persists for the first 24 hours. After that, fine scabs and flakes form, which peel off within 3 to 5 days. This process is part of the natural regeneration process and results in visibly renewed skin. Important: Avoid direct sunlight, solariums, or saunas for the following four weeks and use a sun protection factor of 50+ every day to provide your skin with optimal protection.
Your skin should be treated particularly gently during the first few days. Avoid harsh products and instead opt for mild cleansing, plenty of moisture, and consistent sun protection. Makeup should only be used again once the superficial scabs have completely fallen off. Your treatment team will provide you with a personalized skincare plan for this purpose.

We look forward to hearing from you! Feel free to ask us anything before you decide!
HALO® laser treatment is suitable for UV-induced skin aging, pigment spots, coarse pores, fine lines, acne scars, or a dull complexion. It is particularly effective on sun-damaged skin, as HALO® penetrates deep into the cell structure and activates natural regeneration. This makes it ideal for anyone who wants smoother, fresher skin—without invasive procedures.
After a thorough skin analysis, an anesthetic cream is applied and left to take effect for around an hour. An integrated cooling system also ensures greater comfort during the treatment. The laser creates fine microchannels in the skin, which trigger the healing process and cell renewal. The session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
In the first few days, the skin appears reddened and sensitive. There may be slight swelling and crusting, similar to sunburn. After about three to five days, the skin begins to peel. Soon, a smoother complexion becomes visible, which continues to improve in the weeks that follow.
Treatment costs vary depending on the size and location of the treated area. You will receive exact prices during your personal consultation. Careful aftercare is particularly important following treatment: use SPF 50+ sun protection and avoid sun exposure, sports, saunas, and makeup for at least 7 days. This will ensure optimal results.
Side effects such as redness, scabbing, or tightness of the skin are common but only temporary. In rare cases, pigmentation changes or prolonged healing may occur. However, thanks to our experience and modern technology, complications are rare.
The initial healing phase lasts around 3 to 5 days. During this time, the top layer of skin flakes off and heals. Deeper skin regeneration takes several weeks, during which time the complexion steadily improves and the skin structure refines.
HALO® treatment is suitable for women and men of all skin types who want fresher, smoother skin. It is particularly recommended for the first signs of skin aging, light-induced damage, acne scars, or generally tired skin. HALO® can also be used as a preventive measure.
