Before any in-clinic treatment, our treatment providers complete a 360-degree consultation. Before your first treatment, we start by taking your medical photos.
Your treatment begins by cleansing the skin, and a numbing cream will be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. You will also be given protective eyewear to wear during the treatment to shield your eyes.
The Clear + Brilliant laser device will be gently guided over the skin, creating microscopic treatment zones. You will feel a build-up of heat. The laser energy is designed to stimulate collagen production and promote the growth of new skin cells. To maximize your comfort, we provide you with a fan to help cool the skin throughout the treatment.
After the laser treatment, SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Vitamin C serum will be applied to the skin to help soothe and brighten.
Clear + Brilliant takes about a half-hour, with little to no downtime. Some people may have a touch of redness or swelling for a few hours, and your skin may have a sandpapery texture for a few days after. Using your regular skincare products like moisturizer and vitamin C is no problem.
You'll want to avoid the exfoliator or harsh rubbing, but remember the sunscreen!
It is important to keep your treated skin out of UV exposure as the sun causes most of the visible signs of aging. To maintain and enhance your results, it is important to wear sun protective clothing, wear a minimum of SPF 50 and reapply your sunscreen as directed on the bottle. Results may be enhanced by an antioxidant serum or what is recommended by your service care provider.
After one Clear + Brilliant session, patients have reported that their skin felt smoother, softer, brighter, and with an improved tone for a more youthful, radiant glow. Depending on your skin concerns and goals, it is recommended to have a series of 4 to 6 treatments or once every season to maintain desired results. This treatment can also be coupled between more invasive laser resurfacing treatments
It is important for you to disclose and share your complete medical history with your service provider which includes supplements, prescribed medication and lifestyle to ensure you are a candidate for Clear + Brilliant.
Clear + Brilliant is safe for most skin types. Patients who are breastfeeding, pregnant, have autoimmune disorders, improper wound healing, some skin conditions, recent sun exposure (in the last month) and certain medications cannot undergo this treatment.
