Summer is behind us and while we're all reaching for the chunky sweaters and the pumpkin everything, fall is also one of the most important seasons for your skin.
Here's why: the months you spend away from direct sun exposure are the months your skin can do its best work. Laser treatments, resurfacing, and light-based therapies all perform better when you're not heading back out into UV rays every weekend. Your skin heals faster, holds results longer, and can handle more intensive correction than it can in the summer months.
If you've been putting off doing something for your skin, this is your window. Here are the three treatments we're seeing the most of this fall at New Image and one we often recommend in between.
1. HALO Hybrid Fractional Laser
HALO is our most comprehensive laser treatment for sun damage, texture, and overall skin quality — and fall is exactly when it shines.
HALO combines two wavelengths in a single pass: a non-ablative wavelength that works beneath the surface, and an ablative wavelength that addresses the outer skin layer. The result is meaningful, visible correction of tone, texture, pigment, and fine lines all in one treatment. Clients describe the afterglow as unlike anything they've experienced from other treatments. There's a reason "HALO glow" has become a phrase people use on their own.
Downtime is typically three to five days. Most clients experience some redness and peeling as the skin renews, then the results come through and continue to develop over the coming months.
HALO + PRP at New Image
One of the things that sets our HALO treatments apart is that we offer PRP — platelet-rich plasma — as an add-on. At New Image, PRP is injected at the treatment site to amplify your body's own healing response and enhance your results. We draw a small amount of your blood, filter and process it to concentrate the growth factors, and inject it to work alongside the HALO treatment. For clients who want to maximize their results and support faster recovery, this is a treatment combo to ask about.
2. BBL HERO
If summer left your skin with uneven tone, sun spots, redness, or visible blood vessels, BBL HERO is where we start.
BBL HERO uses broadband light to target pigment and vascular concerns at the surface of the skin. There's no downtime but most clients notice their pigment darkening slightly in the days after treatment before it clears, and the overall result is a more even, clearer complexion.
We love a good treat come combo to maximize results and BBL HERO pairs exceptionally well with HALO. BBL addresses tone and surface pigment; HALO addresses texture, depth, and overall skin quality. Together, they cover more ground than either treatment can on its own…and fall is the ideal time to do both.
3. Moxi
Not every client needs a full resurfacing treatment. Moxi is our entry point for laser care or the treatment we look to when a client can’t afford more significant downtime. It’s a non-ablative laser that improves skin clarity, tone, and early signs of sun damage with minimal downtime.
Moxi is ideal if you want to start small, if you're maintaining results between bigger treatments, or if you're addressing early changes before they deepen. It's also an excellent option for younger skin that needs a refresh rather than intensive correction.
In Between Treatments: DiamondGlow
Whether you've just had a laser treatment or you're in the planning stages, Diamond Glow is the treatment we recommend to keep your skin at its best between sessions.
DiamondGlow is a three-step professional facial that exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with SkinMedica serums customized to your skin's current needs. After a laser treatment, your skin is primed to absorb active ingredients more effectively — and Diamond Glow takes full advantage of that. It's also the treatment we recommend to maintain and boost results as your skin continues to improve between laser appointments.
A relaxing treatment with no downtime and no recovery. And every visit earns you Allē rewards points through Allergan's loyalty program.
New Image is the only provider offering DiamondGlow in the Chillicothe area.
