At Vivify Plastic Surgery in Tampa, skin rejuvenation is approached with clinical precision and an artistic eye. Under the leadership of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Dallas Buchanan, and with treatments performed by Michelle Buchanan, a nurse practitioner with advanced laser training, our team prioritizes results that look healthy and natural. HALO™ Laser has become one of the most popular skin treatments in Tampa because it delivers visible correction of sun damage, fine lines, uneven tone, and texture concerns with minimal downtime and long-term collagen stimulation. In this blog, we break down exactly why patients continue to choose HALO™ over other resurfacing options.

1. Hybrid Technology for More Complete Resurfacing

HALO™ by Sciton is the first hybrid fractional laser, meaning it uses two distinct wavelengths in a single session. One wavelength targets surface-level concerns such as pigmentation and fine lines, while the other penetrates deeper to stimulate collagen remodeling.

Treating both the epidermis and dermis at the same time allows for more comprehensive rejuvenation than many traditional single-mode lasers. Patients often see clearer tone and smoother texture after fewer sessions.

2. Meaningful Results Without Extended Downtime

Many patients want noticeable improvement but cannot step away from work or family obligations for weeks at a time. HALO™ offers a balanced approach.

After treatment, redness and mild swelling are common for several days. As the skin renews, pigmented cells darken and shed, revealing fresher skin beneath. Most patients return to normal routines quickly, making HALO™ a practical option for busy lifestyles.

3. Improvement Across Multiple Skin Concerns

HALO™ remains a patient favorite because it addresses several concerns in a single treatment plan.

  • Fine lines and wrinkles: Stimulates collagen to soften visible creases and improve skin firmness.
  • Sun damage and discoloration: Reduces brown spots and uneven pigmentation caused by UV exposure.
  • Enlarged pores: Refines overall texture for smoother-looking skin.
  • Acne scarring: Improves the appearance of mild to moderate textural irregularities.
  • Dull or uneven tone: Enhances clarity and brightness for a healthier glow.

Rather than focusing on one isolated issue, HALO™ supports overall skin quality.

4. Customizable for Your Skin Type and Goals

No two complexions age in exactly the same way. HALO™ settings can be adjusted for depth and intensity based on skin tone, degree of damage, and desired outcome.

At Vivify Plastic Surgery, every treatment begins with a thorough consultation and skin evaluation. This individualized approach allows our team to calibrate the device precisely, helping optimize results while maintaining safety across a broad range of skin types.

5. Long-Term Collagen Remodeling

HALO™ does more than refresh the surface. By triggering the body’s natural healing response, it encourages new collagen production in the weeks following treatment.

This gradual remodeling process is what gives HALO™ its lasting appeal. Many patients notice continued improvement in firmness and smoothness over several months, especially when paired with medical-grade skincare and diligent sun protection.
