Dr. Lycia Thornburg and her team carefully tailor each treatment to your skin’s unique needs, helping reveal a smoother, clearer, and more luminous complexion while preserving a natural, healthy look.
Renew Skin From the Inside Out
HALO TRIBRID is an advanced fractional laser that treats the skin on multiple levels in a single, highly controlled treatment. It combines an ablative 2940 nm wavelength with non-ablative 1927 nm and 1470 nm wavelengths in a single treatment to address multiple layers at once rather than relying on separate devices. This dual approach stimulates collagen production, accelerates cell turnover, and corrects visible damage. HALO TRIBRID improves skin quality in a way that is both effective and thoughtfully balanced for safety and recovery.
HALO TRIBRID Treats:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage and photodamage
- Uneven skin tone and discoloration
- Hyperpigmentation and age spots
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Enlarged pores
- Acne scars and superficial scarring
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Early signs of skin laxity
Your HALO TRIBRID Treatment at Thornburg MD Dermatology
Your experience begins with a thoughtful consultation, during which your providers take the time to understand your skin, your goals, and how you want to feel in it. We evaluate your skin tone, texture, sun damage, and overall skin health, then design a treatment plan that aligns with your lifestyle and desired level of correction. Every decision is intentional, guided by science and a commitment to natural, lasting results that support how your skin looks and feels.
Treatment
Our providers begin by cleansing the skin and applying a topical numbing agent. The HALO TRIBRID handpiece is then passed across the treatment area, delivering controlled laser energy through three wavelengths. This creates microscopic channels while heating deeper layers to stimulate collagen. The settings are carefully adjusted throughout to match your skin’s needs, ensuring even coverage, consistent energy delivery, and optimal safety.
Recovery
After treatment, your skin will feel warm, similar to a sunburn, with redness and mild swelling developing over 24 to 48 hours. You may notice bronzing and the formation of tiny darkened spots as the skin begins to renew. Peeling typically occurs over five to seven days on the face, with continued dryness as healing progresses. Your providers guide you through skincare, strict sun protection, and supportive products to ensure a smooth, safe recovery.
Results
You’ll begin to notice improvements in tone and clarity within the first week. Over the following weeks, collagen remodeling continues beneath the surface, gradually improving skin texture, fine lines, and skin quality. The results continue to build for several months, with skin appearing stronger and more radiant. Depending on your goals, most patients benefit from one to two treatments, with maintenance sessions to preserve and enhance long-term results.
