Contact UsWhat is a HALO® by Sciton Treatment?
A Halo treatment is designed to address scarring, sunspots, fine lines, and enlarged pores while improving your skin texture. This hybrid fractional laser treatment is both ablative, which removes a superficial layer of the skin, and non-ablative, which focuses on the surface layer of the skin without physical injury.
What to Expect during a Halo Treatment?
Before undergoing a Halo treatment, patients will have a consultation with one of Oak Dermatology’s experienced estheticians to assess skin type, discuss specific concerns, and determine the appropriate setting for the treatment. Additionally, the provider will provide education for pre and post-treatment care instructions to optimize results.
Preparation: On the day of treatment, the patient’s skin will be thoroughly cleansed and a topical anesthetic will be applied to enhance comfort during the procedure. Protective eyewear will also be provided to shield the eyes from the laser.
Sensation: Patients may experience a warming sensation and mild pricking during the treatment. The integrated cooling technology, as well as the numbing medication, helps manage any discomfort. Following the treatment, the treated areas may feel like having a sunburn.
Treatment Duration: Sessions typically last between 60 to 90 minutes. After treatment, patients can expect a downtime of approximately 5-7 days, which consists of having no sun exposure, not wearing makeup and a red appearance on the treated areas.
Oak Dermatology Reviews
Dr. Fang is the best dermatologist in Joliet she explains you things well and take care of you. She's not rushed she takes her time.
Dr. Fang and is an absolutely amazing dermatologist! She’s extremely personable and is thorough in her discussions about procedures and after care. I highly recommend her.
After trying to get rid of my acne with over the counter products I decided to try going to a dermatologist. They got me on a routine and my acne is significantly better since I have stuck to it daily.
Staff is friendly and helpful. Stephanie Tracey is personable and takes her time during visits.
Had an excellent first experience with Oak Derm today. I was seen by NP Emily Schnurstein for facial flushing and hair loss. She listened carefully to all of my concerns and addressed each one of them throughly. The front desk staff was also very pleasant.

Do I need a HALO® by Sciton or BBL Treatment?
For patients more concerned about scarring, pore size, texture, sun damage, or melasma, HALO® by Sciton is the better option. For patients who are happy with their skin texture, but are concerned with their redness, brown spots, blood vessels, or inflammatory acne, BBL is recommended.
