Achieving radiant, youthful skin requires more than a single approach – it demands access to the most advanced laser technology available and the expertise to use it effectively. Silk Plastic Surgery now offers the newest Sciton laser platform, a comprehensive system that includes BBL Heroic, Halo, advanced Contour TRL, and ProFractional components. This versatile technology allows our double board-certified plastic surgeons to address virtually any skin concern with precision, from sun damage and pigmentation to deep wrinkles and acne scars. Whether you seek subtle rejuvenation or dramatic transformation, the Sciton platform delivers customizable treatments tailored to your unique goals and lifestyle.
Dr. Page is an excellent surgeon who showed me so much patience and personal care throughout multiple reconstruction and revision surgeries. She and Dr. McKay collaborated on one surgery, both are amazing. My results are great so I would choose this practice again. Her staff are top notch and always answered any questions promptly. I’m convinced that I got the very best care from Dr. Page.
Why Our Surgeons Trust Sciton Technology
“The Sciton platform represents the gold standard in laser skin rejuvenation,” notes Dr. Eugenia Page. “Having trained at institutions where precision and outcomes matter most, I appreciate that Sciton gives us complete control over treatment parameters. We can fine-tune every aspect of a patient’s treatment to match their specific skin concerns, tolerance, and recovery timeline.”
Our physicians’ backgrounds in complex reconstructive surgery and microsurgery—combined with training at Mayo Clinic, Emory University, and the University of Pennsylvania—inform every aesthetic procedure we perform. This depth of expertise ensures that patients receive not only advanced technology but also the clinical judgment to use it safely and effectively across all skin types.
What Is the Sciton Laser Platform?
The Sciton laser platform is a modular system that combines multiple cutting-edge technologies within a single device. Unlike practices that offer only one type of laser treatment, Silk Plastic Surgery’s investment in the complete Sciton system means patients have access to the full spectrum of laser-based skin solutions. Each component serves a distinct purpose, and our surgeons often combine modalities for comprehensive results that surpass what any single treatment could achieve.
BBL Heroic: Next-Generation Light Therapy
BBL Heroic—short for High Energy Rapid Output—represents the most advanced broadband light technology available. This treatment delivers intense pulses of light energy that penetrate the skin to target pigmentation, redness, vascular concerns, and sun damage. Studies published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology demonstrate that BBL can actually reverse gene expression patterns in aged skin cells, causing them to behave more like younger cells. The result is skin that not only looks better but functions at a healthier, more youthful level. BBL Heroic treats the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and legs with remarkable speed—completing full-body treatments in minutes rather than hours.
Halo: The Hybrid Fractional Laser
Halo is the world’s first and only hybrid fractional laser, delivering both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths simultaneously to the same treatment zone. This dual-wavelength approach creates the famous Halo glow—a radiant, refreshed complexion that patients consistently describe as transformative. The ablative wavelength targets surface-level concerns like texture and pore size, while the non-ablative wavelength penetrates deeper to address pigmentation and stimulate collagen production. Patients achieve remarkable results in just one to two treatments, whereas older single-wavelength technologies often require five or six sessions to deliver comparable improvement.
Contour TRL: Deep Resurfacing Excellence
The Contour TRL—Tunable Resurfacing Laser—offers unparalleled precision for treating deeper skin concerns. This advanced erbium laser can be precisely calibrated to control both ablation depth and thermal coagulation, effectively emulating the benefits of multiple laser types within a single device. For patients with significant sun damage, deep wrinkles, or severe textural irregularities, Contour TRL delivers dramatic improvement. The system’s tunability also allows for gentler treatments when needed, from light peels to comprehensive resurfacing, all customized to match each patient’s goals and available recovery time.
ProFractional: Precision Scar Revision and Renewal
ProFractional represents Sciton’s fractional erbium laser technology, specifically designed for scar revision and deep skin renewal. By creating microscopic treatment channels while leaving surrounding tissue intact, ProFractional stimulates robust collagen production and accelerates healing. This approach proves particularly effective for acne scars, surgical scars, and areas requiring deep rejuvenation. The fractional design means faster recovery compared to full-field resurfacing, with patients typically returning to normal activities within days while enjoying continual improvement for up to six months after treatment.
Conditions Treated with Sciton Laser Technology
The comprehensive Sciton platform addresses an extensive range of skin concerns, allowing our surgeons to develop truly personalized treatment plans:
Sun Damage and Age Spots
BBL Heroic targets melanin to eliminate brown spots, freckles, and photodamage while preventing future damage
Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Halo and ProFractional stimulate collagen remodeling to smooth surface lines and restore skin elasticity
Deep Wrinkles and Skin Laxity
Contour TRL delivers comprehensive resurfacing that visibly tightens and firms aging skin
Acne Scars and Textural Irregularities
ProFractional creates precise micro-channels that break down scar tissue and promote smooth, even skin
Rosacea and Vascular Concerns
BBL Heroic’s specialized filters target redness, broken capillaries, and inflammatory skin conditions
Uneven Skin Tone and Texture
Multiple modalities combine to restore luminosity, refine pores, and create a balanced complexion
What to Expect During Your Sciton Treatment
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where our surgeons evaluate your skin, discuss your concerns, and develop a customized treatment plan. Depending on the modalities selected, a topical anesthetic may be applied before treatment to ensure comfort. During the procedure, you may feel warmth or a mild snapping sensation as the laser energy is delivered.
Treatment times vary from 15 minutes for targeted BBL Heroic sessions to 45 minutes or more for comprehensive resurfacing. Most patients experience some redness and warmth immediately following treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. Recovery timelines range from virtually no downtime with BBL Heroic to one to two weeks for deeper Contour TRL resurfacing—our surgeons work with you to select approaches that align with your lifestyle and schedule.
