Laser skin treatments have evolved in recent years and now address a range of cosmetic concerns, from changes in skin texture to scarring and sun damage. The beauty of laser treatment is its ability to harness the body’s natural healing process in the stimulation of increased collagen production. The depth of the laser is the key factor in what it can treat and the type of results you can expect.
The Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser offers the “best of both worlds” with a dual laser that can boost collagen production for lost volume and improve tone and texture on the skin. It can also reduce even the most stubborn brown pigmentation with no downtime.
Halo: How Does It Work?
The Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser uses customizable laser-generated heat to simultaneously penetrate the skin’s dermal layers to rejuvenate the surface. The resulting glow is both lasting and restorative, enhancing the appearance of your skin while also improving the effects of lost volume beneath the epidermal layer. Patients can receive a more comprehensive treatment that addresses the signs of aging on multiple levels while also improving the health of their skin. Halo can treat a range of concerns:
Fine lines, wrinkles
Acne scarring
Sunspots, age spots
Brown pigmentation
Large, visible pores
Discoloration
Poor skin texture
The ability to customize the depth of the laser provides a more individualized treatment that can also be tailored to target specific areas of the face. We work with our patients to create a personalized treatment plan for their unique cosmetic goals and skin types.
What To Expect
The number of sessions or treatments you will receive is dependent on your goals and will be discussed during your initial consultation and evaluation. Using a topical anesthetic for comfort, the hand-held laser device is moved across the surface of the skin in areas to be treated.
Most patients experience a warming sensation with some mild pressure, especially in sensitive areas around the eyes, nose, and lips. Once complete, you can expect to see minor redness or swelling that will dissipate within a couple of days. Patients can typically return to their regular daily routine right away, depending on the location and intensity of the treatment performed
The results of a Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser treatment will appear gradually and last for years with a good skin care regimen. We can discuss the benefits of using professional skincare products to support improved collagen production and protect from environmental elements.

I have had the extraordinary opportunity to work alongside Dr. Ambro and Dr. Chappell for nearly two months as I finalized my studies as a physician assistant. From the moment I entered the premises, I was welcomed with warm smiles and open arms, this is not always the case as a student in a new environment. The office is immaculate and the staff is well trained and very capable.
Dr. Ambro has an unparalleled bedside manner with his patients and it is evident that he is adored and revered by his peers, staff, and patients alike. His attention to detail is uncanny. Dr. Ambro brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table that is equally matched by humility and character. He makes each patient feel as though he/she is his ONLY patient and is attentive to concerns and questions. He anticipates patient’s apprehensions and is well prepared for discussions. His pre-operative and post-operative instructions are well outlined and are among the most thorough I have seen throughout my education and career. He is truly a jack-of-all-trades and a MASTER of them all. He is your “go-to” for everything above the clavicles and offers a multitude of non-surgical rejuvenation treatments including, but not limited to laser services, fillers, and Botox with dramatic, yet natural results.
Dr. Chappell is an integral part of the team and focuses on breast augmentation and reconstruction, as well as, body contouring and minimally invasive body sculpting among other procedures. As a student observing many consults and interactions with patients, I was very impressed with Dr. Chappell’s ability to navigate sensitive subjects. He spends adequate time with each patient addressing each unique concern and makes a stressful experience a very pleasurable one. It is not always easy to converse about ones “defects”, yet he does so gracefully and with humility. Dr. Chappell is very amicable and went out of his way to welcome me and make me feel as though I was part of the team. I have met students with whom he has worked and my experience was echoed. On a final note, I was very impressed with Dr. Chappell’s drive to learn new information. His desk was filled with articles, journals, and notes about new procedures and new developments in his field of medicine. He is well informed and stays ahead of the times. He will not disappoint!
