Overview
Hybrid fractional laser
Sciton built it to deliver two wavelengths into the same microscopic treatment zone at once: an ablative one that resurfaces the very top of the skin, and a non-ablative one that works deeper, where sun damage actually sits. That pairing is what does the job of a far harsher resurfacing in a single pass.
Often in one or two sessions, it softens fine lines and wrinkles, refines pores and uneven texture, and lifts sun damage and discoloration, all while rebuilding collagen for results that keep improving. You get the glow of a deep resurfacing with a fraction of the downtime. Often paired with BBL, so together they renew tone, texture, and pigment for one radiant result.

BBL or HALO?
They do different jobs, and many plans use both. Your provider maps which one your skin needs at your free consultation.
| Treatment aspect | BBL® HEROic™ | HALO® |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | BroadBand Light: a wide band of wavelengths, filtered down to the range your skin needs. | A hybrid fractional laser: an ablative and a non-ablative wavelength delivered into the same microscopic treatment zone. |
| What we reach for it on | Sun damage, redness, uneven pigment, active breakouts, unwanted hair. | Fine lines and wrinkles, uneven texture, enlarged pores, acne scars. |
| Downtime | Little to none. | The glow of a deep resurfacing with a fraction of the downtime. |
| How results arrive | The effect compounds, visit over visit. | Often one or two sessions, with results that keep improving. |
Both platforms are built by Sciton and are FDA-cleared. Individual results vary.

Questions
Frequently asked questions.
- What is HALO® laser resurfacing?
- HALO is a hybrid fractional laser, a true laser and the counterpart to BBL's broadband light. Sciton built it to deliver two wavelengths into the same microscopic treatment zone at once: an ablative one that resurfaces the very top of the skin, and a non-ablative one that works deeper, where sun damage actually sits. That pairing is what does the job of a far harsher resurfacing in a single pass.
- How much does HALO® laser resurfacing cost?
- $1,500 for the face, $1,850 for the face and neck, and $2,500 for the face, neck and décolletage. Your first visit is a free consultation. We partner with Cherry, so you can split the cost of a treatment into monthly payments. Applying takes about a minute on your phone, and checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score. You can start at eclatazmedspa.com/payment-plans, ask at checkout, or raise it at your consultation and we will walk you through what fits. Every price comes from our published menu, so you can think it over at home first.
- Is HALO a laser?
- Yes. HALO is a hybrid fractional laser, delivering an ablative and a non-ablative wavelength into the same microscopic treatment zone. It is the laser on our menu.
- How long is the downtime after HALO?
- Expect three to five days of visible downtime: swelling for two to four days, redness peaking around day three, then a bronzed, sandpaper texture that flakes and peels away. Healing varies with the depth of the treatment and with the person, so we plan yours with room to spare.
- When can I wear makeup again after HALO?
- Once the peeling is finished. On the second or third day the skin takes on a bronzed, sandpaper texture, then flakes and peels off. We send you home knowing what each day of the healing should look like.
- How far before an event should I schedule HALO?
- A month, and six to eight weeks if there will be close photographs. The visible part of healing runs three to five days, but sunscreen stays part of the daily routine for up to three months afterwards, and healing varies from person to person, so five days is not the number to plan to. Bring the date to your consultation and we will work backward from it.
- Does HALO hurt?
- Most people describe a feeling of heat with occasional prickling, and find it manageable. Sciton's guidance pairs the treatment with a topical numbing cream and built-in cooling, so most people feel very little discomfort.
- How many HALO treatments will I need?
- Often one or two. Sciton describes results in one to two treatments for most people, and how many suit your skin and goals is set at your consultation.
- How long does a HALO appointment take?
- We book an hour for a HALO appointment. Sciton puts the treatment itself at fifteen to thirty minutes.
- How long do HALO results last?
- Sciton says results can last for years, as long as your skin is protected from the sun. Your skin keeps aging after any treatment, so daily sunscreen is what keeps the result looking its best. Results vary.
- Is HALO right for my skin tone?
- Suitability depends on your skin tone and is always assessed at your consultation.
- Should I choose HALO or BBL?
- HALO works mainly on texture: fine lines, pores and uneven skin, with three to five days of visible downtime. BBL works mainly on tone, such as sun damage, redness and pigment, with little to no downtime. They are often paired, and your consultation decides which suits your skin, or whether both do.
- Is the consultation free?
- Yes, always. A consultation here is a real appointment with our nurse practitioner, our registered nurse or one of our licensed aestheticians, depending on the treatment, with no pressure and no obligation. We talk through your skin, your goals and what we would honestly recommend, and you leave with a plan you can take home. Come for the consultation and decide on treatment after.
