Your skin keeps your body safe. It protects your vulnerable organs from radiation, pollutants, and other harmful foreign materials. But by protecting you, it can sustain noticeable external damage in the form of fine lines, aging changes, irregular pigment, and dull skin tone, and a dull skin tone.

If you’re considering coming to our clinic for SCITON HALO TRIBRID laser skin rejuvenation in Elgin, you may be wondering how it works. The answer lies in the name.
TRIBRID is named for the 3 wavelengths of laser technology it uses to provide comprehensive results: 2940 nm, 1927 nm, and 1470 nm are combined in a single laser pulse. There is no other laser device available that can accomplish this.
These laser wavelengths penetrate the skin at different levels, treating skin concerns on and beneath the surface. This device targets unwanted pigment and provides the skin with a natural glow. It also facilitates the development of enhanced skin tone and texture for lasting aesthetic improvement.
If you’re interested in SCITON HALO TRIBRID laser skin rejuvenation in Elgin, the first step is sitting down with our team for a consultation. Our expert providers will ask you about your goals, concerns, and medical history.
If we determine you could benefit from this treatment, we can create a custom treatment plan and schedule your first session.
When you come in for treatment, our providers will administer a topical numbing ointment to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
Then, your aesthetic specialist will pass the specialized laser handpiece over your skin, treating damage with 3 integrated wavelengths of energy.
The results timeline varies from patient to patient, but in many cases, people first notice their results within 4 or 5 days.
However, with proper skincare maintenance, these results can last for months.
No. Any discomfort you may experience from the SCITON HALO TRIBRID treatment process is minimal. Thanks to its advanced cooling technology, patients have consistently rated the discomfort as 3 out of 10, even for the higher energy treatments.
Before we begin, your provider will apply a topical numbing ointment to make the treatment process more comfortable. The device also includes a highly advanced integrated cooling mechanism to reduce any heat stemming from the laser treatment.
You may need to take 3 to 5 days of social recovery time following your treatment. Following your session, the treated skin may become red and tight, like a sunburn.
In the 2 or 3 days after your treatment, particles of debris may slowly rise to the surface of your skin. These should fade away after a few days, revealing fresh skin below.
We recommend avoiding direct sun exposure for at least 7 days.
Initial results may appear after 4 or 5 days. For continuing results, we may recommend patients schedule annual sessions for SCITON HALO TRIBRID laser skin rejuvenation in Elgin.
We can also supplement your results by combining it with another aesthetic treatment or one of our medical-grade skincare products.
