Sciton® Halo™ is a laser treatment indicated for correcting UV skin damage, signs of aging such as lines and wrinkles, scars, uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, and more.

Sciton® BBL™ Pinehurst is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment featuring both a fast recovery time and amazing results. This powerful form of intense pulsed light (IPL) procedure uses light therapy to rejuvenate the skin.

Want to firm your skin? Consider SkinTyte which uses infrared light energy to deliver gentle pulses producing collagen and promoting skin contraction. This treatment creates firmer skin tissue and requires no downtime.

Depending on the treatment, you may receive a topical anesthetic to apply up to an hour before to reduce sensation in the treated areas. A single device rolls over the targeted area delivering brief pulses of laser light energy to the skin. Patients describe the feeling as a prickling heat. The treatment’s advanced technology evenly distributes energy and determines the ideal duration.

The entire treatment typically lasts 20-30 minutes. Afterwards patients may experience slight redness in the area which disappears within a few days. Skin flaking and crusting is normal. Avoiding sun exposure and keeping the skin covered for 24 hours post procedure are a must. After a day or two, normal daily activities including wearing makeup can resume. Your skin will continue to improve over the following weeks and months.

A Sciton JOULE treatment is customized to your specific skin concerns and desired results. During the procedure, your provider will adjust the laser settings to target the precise areas of your skin needing rejuvenation, such as pigmentation, texture, or fine lines.

Most sessions are quick, taking about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area. You may experience mild warmth or tingling as the laser works to stimulate collagen production and refresh your skin.

While some patients experience mild discomfort during a Sciton JOULE treatment, it is typically well-tolerated. The sensation often feels like a slight snapping or prickling on the skin. To ensure your comfort, a cooling device or numbing cream may be used during the procedure. Most patients find the experience to be manageable, and the benefits of smoother, more youthful skin far outweigh any temporary discomfort.
