Classic signs of aging, such as fine lines, age spots, uneven skin tone, and sun damage, often make us feel self-conscious about our appearance. While aging is a natural process we all go through, there are ways to combat these issues and age gracefully. Dr. Ladie Araña-Domondon may recommend Halo™ laser skin treatment at Concordia Star Medical Aesthetics.
Halo is a hybrid fractional laser that uses ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to treat the top and deeper layers of tissue, addressing a wide variety of cosmetic concerns at once. Call our office in Puyallup, WA, and book a session today. We'd love to help you achieve a more radiant and youthful-looking complexion.
How do signs of aging manifest in our skin?
As we age, our skin undergoes many changes that result in visible signs of aging:
- Fine lines and creases: Wrinkles become more prominent as our bodies produce fewer proteins like collagen and elastin.
- Age spots: Also known as sun spots or liver spots, these dark areas are caused by prolonged sun exposure.
- Uneven skin tone: Over time, we may develop an uneven tone due to a decrease in melanin production.
- Sun damage: Years of exposure to UV rays can accelerate aging and deepen existing lines.
How does Halo laser skin treatment target these issues?
Halo is a cutting-edge treatment that combines both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to provide results. The ablative wavelength removes the top layer of damaged skin to reveal fresher, smoother skin underneath, while the non-ablative wavelength bypasses the top layer to stimulate collagen production. This dual approach allows Dr. Araña-Domondon to address multiple concerns in just one session.
How is Halo laser treatment performed?
Before your Halo laser treatment in Puyallup, WA, we use a topical anesthetic to numb the area and make you feel as comfortable as possible. We then use a handheld device to deliver laser energy to your skin. The process typically takes 30 – 45 minutes, depending on the size of the area involved. You may experience some redness and mild discomfort for a day or two post-procedure, but our patients say that any minor side effects are worth the results.
When will signs of aging disappear?
The results of Halo laser skin treatment are progressive, meaning they will continue to get better over time. You may notice some darker spots flaking off after 72 hours, but this is normal and part of the natural healing process. Dr. Araña-Domondon can provide aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results. Most people see significant improvements in several weeks, with continued improvements over the following months as collagen production increases.

Halo laser treatment can provide a wide range of benefits for aging skin, including:
