Clear and brilliant laser on neck, age 61 - would this procedure be effective?

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

The Clear and Brilliant laser is a fairly mild laser treatment that is great for young skin just starting to see signs of sun damage and fine lines or as maintenance after more aggressive laser treatments. It would not help neck laxity on its own. A more aggressive laser treatment such as the Fraxel DUAL combined with Thermage radio frequency skin tightening would be more beneficial.
