About 30 to 60 minutes before your treatment, we will prepare your skin with a topical anesthetic to minimize the discomfort you may feel during the procedure. We also measure the area we are treating to ensure we are treating your skin evenly. During the treatment, we roll the Halo handpiece over each section of the measured area.

Common Questions About Halo in Kansas City
Every client is different when it comes to downtime after Halo in Kansas City.
Immediately after a Halo laser treatment, your skin will appear red and swollen. This usually lasts about 24 hours. We advise all of our clients to schedule their Halo laser treatment on a day when they can head home to rest afterward and are not obligated to return to school or work. Generally, though, the majority of patients are able to wear makeup the day after their procedure.
In the days following your Halo treatment in Kansas City, your skin will begin to peel. This process usually only lasts around 3-4 days and is what allows clearer, more youthful skin to be revealed!
In the weeks following, your complexion will continue to gradually improve. By week 2 or 3, your skin’s pigment will appear smoother, brighter, and more evenly toned.
Many clients see improved changes with just one treatment. However, most people see the best results after a series of 3 or more treatments.
Most clients experience very little discomfort during a Halo treatment in Kansas City. We use a topical anesthetic and simultaneous cooling technology to help combat any potential unpleasant sensations from the Halo laser itself.
Most clients describe their experience during the Halo laser treatment as a feeling of heat with occasional prickling sensations.
After the treatment is complete, the treated area will feel warm for about an hour, with temporary redness and possible swelling that will dissipate after about one to three hours.
Generally, we recommend patients receive 1-3 treatments, depending on their aesthetic goals.
If you choose to get more than 1 Halo laser treatment, they should be scheduled 6-8 weeks apart. You can also get them as needed to maintain your results long-term.
