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. Best,Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon
The amount of Clear and Brilliant treatments a patient would need depends on a variety of factors like the patient’s skin condition, treatment goals, response to treatment, etc. The nature of Clear and Brilliant allows it to be customized to each patient’s unique needs and goals, so the number of treatments can vary. Generally speaking patients can expect around 4-6 treatments. While you will experience some results after one session, it does require multiple sessions to see full results.
Clear + Brilliant is a fractional laser at 1440nm. Fractionated lasers use multiple columns of laser light all over the face, so only a portion of the skin is treated at a time. We find a slight improvement in texture and tone after one treatment, but it is minimal. To see the full benefit most patients need 3 to 5 treatments.
After one treatment of clear and brilliant you will experience a slight change in skin tone and texture. If you are treating pore size or pigmentation multiple session will be required, between 4-6 every set 4 weeks apart. Having someone who understands the laser can tailor a program or intensity to your particular area of concern. This breaks the standard protocols of C and B, but it can deliver a much better outcome.

Clear + Brilliant shouldn't burn the skin. It is very low energy low density. I suggest comparing the before and after photos. In the years I have had this device I have never seen burns or hyperpigmentation. I suggest going to an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
Assuming the Restylane was injected properly, both Clear and Brilliant and Fraxel should have no effect on the outcomes from your filler treatment
