Whether you're looking to minimize fine lines or achieve a more even skin tone, our board-certified providers can tailor this innovative procedure to fit your unique needs.

What Is Halo Laser Treatment?

Halo is a hybrid laser system that combines both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to treat the skin from multiple angles. Unlike traditional lasers that operate solely at the surface or deep within the tissue, Halo uses two distinct light energies simultaneously, tackling various concerns in a single session. The ablative component removes damaged skin at the surface, while the non-ablative wavelength stimulates collagen and elastin production in the deeper layers. This dual-action approach addresses a wide range of issues—such as fine lines, pigmentation irregularities, and uneven texture—while minimizing downtime and discomfort.

At pēkomd®, our focus on patient-first care means we adapt Halo's settings to accommodate your skin type, lifestyle, and aesthetic aspirations. By combining advanced laser science with a compassionate, individualized approach, we strive to deliver results that feel both transformative and aligned with your authentic sense of self.

What to Expect During Your Halo Laser Treatment at pēkomd

Your Halo Laser Treatment journey begins with a thorough consultation at one of our Ohio locations—Columbus, Dayton, or Toledo—where a board-certified provider will assess your skin concerns, discuss your goals, and establish whether Halo is the right path for you. If we decide to move forward, you'll receive a customized treatment plan outlining the number of sessions, potential additional therapies, and how Halo can complement your everyday skincare routine.

On the day of your procedure, we start by cleansing your skin and applying a topical numbing cream to enhance comfort. Protective eyewear is provided to shield your eyes from the laser's light. Your provider then calibrates the Halo device to suit your skin type and address concerns like discoloration or texture irregularities. As the laser handpiece moves across your face (or other targeted areas), you may feel mild heat and tingling. Throughout the session, we focus on maintaining a balance between effective energy delivery and minimal patient discomfort.

Depending on the treatment area's size and complexity, a session can last between 30 to 60 minutes. Before leaving, we'll provide you with personalized aftercare instructions—commonly advising you to use gentle cleansers, apply recommended moisturizers, and protect your skin from direct sun exposure. Regular follow-ups allow us to monitor progress, address any concerns, and, if needed, fine-tune your treatment plan for optimal benefits.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

Make you feel like your best self.

Every experience I’ve had at pēkomd® has been amazing. The staff and providers truly take the time to make you feel like your best self. Dr. Koltz takes the time to get to know his patients and listens to their needs, concerns and dreams. I would absolutely recommend giving them a call and taking the steps to feeling the best version of yourself!

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure. The follow-up care has been excellent as well, and I am so happy with my results. I highly recommend!!

Recovering After Your Halo Laser Procedure

Unlike many traditional lasers, Halo Laser Treatment is designed to offer effective results with less downtime. Immediately after your session, your skin may appear slightly red or feel warm, as if you've experienced a mild sunburn—these effects typically subside within a few days. Minor swelling, dryness, or flakiness can also occur, reflecting the skin's natural rejuvenation process. Your provider will recommend soothing products and gentle skincare practices to maintain comfort, along with emphasizing sunscreen use to protect your healing skin.

Within the first week, you'll likely see subtle improvements in tone and texture, with more noticeable changes emerging as collagen production ramps up over the following weeks. Many individuals resume normal activities, including work and moderate exercise, the day after treatment, making Halo an attractive option for those with demanding schedules. Regular follow-up sessions, if suggested, allow you to build on these results, preserving a youthful, luminous complexion that resonates with your sense of confidence and well-being.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for Halo Laser Treatment?

Halo Laser Treatment works effectively for a variety of skin types and is especially beneficial if you're dealing with mild to moderate aging signs, sun damage, or uneven tone. Ideal candidates typically appreciate the dual-wavelength approach, which allows for more comprehensive improvements in skin clarity and texture compared to single-wavelength treatments. If you have deeper wrinkles or severe laxity, a more intensive procedure—or a combination of multiple therapies—may be needed.

During your consultation at pēkomd®, our board-certified providers will evaluate your skin's condition, review your medical history, and ensure you have realistic expectations about the recovery process. This patient-first approach allows us to guide you toward a treatment plan that aligns with your anatomy, goals, and lifestyle, making sure you look better, feel better, and do better in the most natural way possible.

Halo Laser Treatment Frequently Asked Questions

Ready to illuminate your skin with Halo Laser Treatment? Contact pēkomd® today to schedule your one-on-one consultation and discover how our advanced, patient-first approach can help you achieve a radiant, youthful complexion.

How many sessions will I need for best results?

Although some individuals see significant improvements after a single treatment, a series of Halo sessions—often two or three spaced a few months apart—can produce more comprehensive, longer-lasting benefits.

Will I experience discomfort during the procedure?

A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to reduce discomfort. Most patients describe a warm, prickling sensation, which is generally well-tolerated.

How soon can I return to my normal routine?

While you may experience mild redness or flaking for a few days, many people resume daily activities, including work, the following day. Avoiding direct sun exposure and using gentle skincare is key during recovery.

Does Halo Laser Treatment work for all skin types?

Halo's dual-wavelength approach is versatile and can be adapted to various skin tones and textures. During your consultation, we'll confirm it's appropriate for your specific complexion and goals.

Can Halo Laser Treatment be combined with other procedures?

Yes, Halo often pairs well with complementary services like dermal fillers or neuromodulators. We'll discuss any combination treatments needed during your personalized consultation.
