What are the different levels/strengths of the Clear and Brilliant laser?

Hello, There are two different hand pieces and three treatment levels for the Clear + Brilliant (low, medium, and high). The original hand piece is best for textural issues, and the permea hand piece is great for pigmentation issues.The Clear + Brilliant and Fraxel are both fractional lasers and do similar things BUT the C+B is much more mild, with virtually no downtime. One Fraxel is equivalent to approximately four C+B treatments, with about 5-7 days downtime which can include swelling, redness,  darkening of pigmentation and peeling/flaking. You can expect more dramatic result with the Fraxel. The C+B is great for younger clients, rejuvenation, and melasma.

Thank you for your question! For facial rejuvenation I would suggest a combination approach including:1) skin care with products and microneedling/PRP2) PDT Light Therapy a few times per month with growth factors3) laser treatments like Clear + Brilliant regularly and others (Fraxel, Viva, CO2, Erbium) a few times per year4) Sculptra injections a few times per year for collagen production with fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Radiesse, and/or Bellafill5) Thermage/Ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone-based Instalift threads for lifting6) Botox every 2 to 3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest
See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

I always use the highest settings for the Clear + Brilliant laser but it is not as aggressive a laser as Fraxel. A cosmetic dermatologist can assess your skin and suggest which treatments would be best for you.
