Every angel deserves their HALO
If you’re considering laser resurfacing, you should be considering the HALO laser. In Toledo, Blush Aesthetics is the premier choice for professional laser treatments, with visitors from across the city and even from other states! HALO treatments wipe away the effects of age and give you the youthful, confidence-boosting skin you deserve. Our specialists use the leading techniques, technology, and practices to ensure you receive the best possible treatment with the HALO laser in Toledo.
What happens after HALO laser resurfacing
After treatment, your skin will be a little red and sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. On the second or third day, you should expect rougher skin texture as your old skin cells slough away. By day 3, any lingering redness can be easily covered. Most patients find great results appear after 1 week.
How it Works
01. Consultation
An optional consultation can be super helpful for getting to know you and your goals! We start with a health history, skin analysis, and discussion of your current skincare regimen.
02. Determine Treatment
We will determine your candidacy for laser treatment and recommend a customized plan to get you from where you are to where you want to be. If you're ready for your first HALO session, we can get started!
03. Treatment
While you lay back and relax, your provider applies the HALO device to your treatment area. It delivers pulses of both ablative and non-ablative energy to provide an effective treatment that's gentler than traditional laser resurfacing.
04. After care
After your HALO laser resurfacing, we provide step-by-step instructions on how to care for your skin and discuss any additional ways we can help you look and feel your best.
The Unicorn of Laser Skin Resurfacing
HALO is the world’s first hybrid fractional laser (HFL), and it’s raised the bar for skin rejuvenation forever. This hybrid technology combines ablative and non-ablative light waves to maximize your results and minimize downtime.
While the ablative wavelengths vaporize damaged skin cells in the epidermis (the outermost layer of skin), the non-ablative wavelengths work deeper in the dermis layer to trigger healing. During your HALO laser in Toledo, your skin specialist will use this dualistic approach to trigger controlled “micro-injuries,” sending your body into repair mode. This forces your skin to ramp up collagen and elastin production. While collagen proteins act as your skin’s building blocks, elastin fibers allow it to stretch, but your skin produces about 1% less of these materials every year.
The HALO Advantage
Replenishing your skin’s vital resources gives it the power to rebuild itself; no need to fear looking “overdone” or not like yourself. With HALO, you can revive your youthful glow and make it last.
Improvements You Can See
HALO targets imperfections at the source, working deeper than other surface-level “solutions.” This unique hybrid laser reaches all the way to the dermis (the middle layer of skin) to break down melanin clusters responsible for discolored sun and age spots. Plus, it shrinks visible blood cells to eradicate redness from the inside out, whether it’s from rosacea or chronic stress.
In those deeper layers of your skin, HALO also sends a message to your body that it needs to produce more collagen and elastin, forcing it to rebuild itself. So, beyond creating a more even skin tone and revealing a healthy glow, you can enjoy skin that’s still yours, only more youthful.
Changes You Can Feel
HALO presses the “reset” button on your skin, giving you a smoother canvas. Acne scars? In the past. Bumps? Banished. Rough patches? Gone.
Beyond smoothing fine lines, we also use the HALO laser in Toledo to shrink your pores for a flawless finish without the filter. Working its magic beneath the surface, HALO’s collagen production boost smooths your skin’s texture and improves firmness (and your skin’s long-term resilience).
What is photoaging?
Sure, aging is inevitable, but there are some things you can do (and avoid) to push off time’s toll on your skin. “Photoaging” refers to premature signs of aging, directly caused by sun damage.
The sun is not your skin’s friend, as exposing it to UV rays speeds up the aging process on a cellular level to make you look older than you are. It’s not too late to take action if you’ve spent a little too much time tanning and have noticed spots or lines. HALO can help you start fresh, fortifying your skin’s internal framework to reverse visible damage from within.

Frequently Asked Questions About the HALO Laser
We usually recommend to take the rest of the day, and maybe the next day, to ensure your skin stays fully protected from any external factors.
You will begin to see a difference starting 2 to 5 days after your treatment. You will see the full effect within 2 to 3 weeks.
With the right at-home skin care and ongoing maintenance treatments, the effects of HALO laser resurfacing can last a lifetime.
While BBL and HALO laser technology share some similarities, and we love both proven technologies, there are some key differences that make them more suitable for specific scenarios. Remember, our HALO laser in Toledo is a hybrid fractional laser. BBL is not a laser, but rather a kind of light therapy. A BBL photofacial does not break the skin’s surface, so it can’t address all of the same concerns as HALO (such as enlarged pores, acne scars, and sun spots).
While BBL doesn’t improve your skin’s texture, it does improve its tone, treating concerns like redness, inflammatory acne, and visible blood vessels. Again, neither is “better” than the other, but our skin specialists will help you decide which is better for you during your consultation. Some patients even combine these two therapies!
Absolutely! We’re firm believers in the power of combination therapies, and so is science. Our skin specialists will help you create your unique treatment plan during your consultation, recommending combinable therapies to help you achieve your specific goals. While everyone is different, many of our patients combine HALO with MOXI, laser peels, and BBL treatments.
Before your appointment, our providers will walk you through exactly how to prepare and maximize the effectiveness of our HALO laser in Toledo. These detailed instructions will explain that you should stop using harsh skincare products, such as retinol, at least 48 hours before your treatment. You should also limit your sun exposure in the weeks leading up to your appointment, as we’ll have to help you reschedule if you develop a sunburn.
We’ll review your specific medication use with you during your consultation, but generally, it’s best to avoid blood-thinning medications in the weeks prior to your visit, too. These medications, including ibuprofen, can make your skin more prone to bleeding and bruising. Rest assured that if you need to take some kind of blood-thinning medication, our skin specialists can adjust the device’s wavelengths to avoid those complications.
Giving your skin time to heal on its own is key. Remember, your skin may feel slightly tight and warm, a similar sensation to a mild sunburn, immediately after your treatment. Swelling is a natural response that will resolve itself, but in the meantime, it’s important to prioritize hydration and be gentle with your skin. You should avoid using ice or medications to reduce swelling, as they can negatively affect your results.
Do not pick at or exfoliate your skin, even if it begins to peel. Follow your provider’s instructions for when to return to swimming, exercising, and saunas, and you can expect to notice improvements over the next week. Your full results will take effect in about 8 weeks.
Optimizing your skincare routine is key to maximizing your results from our HALO laser in Toledo. Remember, not all skincare products are equal. Medical-grade products are clinically proven. With the right regimens and regular maintenance appointments, your results can last for years to come.
