Laser resurfacing (Sciton erbium TRL, fractional, HALO)

Treatments available with the Sciton Joule platform:

• HALOTM is suited for patients who want to achieve the results of an ablative fractional laser but cannot afford the downtime associated with the standard non-hybrid ablative lasers. HALOTM combines benefits of non-ablative and ablative laser technologies leading to improvement of fine lines/wrinkles, pigment, pores, and irregular texture. Patients report that their skin seems to “glow” after treatment.  Areas often treated include the face, neck, and chest.

• ProfractionalTM erbium fractional laser resurfacing is indicated for treatment of mild to severe wrinkles and texture changes, acne scarring on the face, and surgical scars.  Fractional erbium laser resurfaces a portion of the skin, leaving surrounding skin intact.  This leads to shorter downtime than fully ablative erbium laser that removes the entire surface of the target site.  Parameters of the laser can be adjusted for results ranging from subtle to more dramatic depending on patient preference and available downtime.

• Contour TRLTM erbium fully ablative laser for deep resurfacing is the most aggressive and effective resurfacing offered for moderate to severe wrinkles and texture changes and acne scarring on the face. Especially effective for lines around the eyes and the vertical lines on the upper and lower lips.  Laser parameters are adjustable to meet the needs and expectations of each individual patient.

• MicroLaserPeelTM provides the effects of a moderate to deep chemical peel but with a more controlled, even, and consistent result. Used to even out skin-tone and improve texture on the face, neck, chest, and back of the hands.  It is often combined with intense-pulsed-light (IPL) for an improved overall result.  This is a more superficial form of fully ablative laser resurfacing.
