What Results are Possible with Clear and Brilliant Laser?

Clear and Brilliant targets the epidermis. This is a minimal downtime laser which gently improves skin tone and texture with a single 10-20-minute treatment. It is 2 devices in 1, offering both the 1440nm handpiece for skin rejuvenation and the 1927nm Permea handpiece for pigmentation improvement.   For best results, you need four treatments, one month apart. 
As always, an in-person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training is the best way to assess your needs and provide medical advice. 

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.

Clear and Brilliant is a non ablative fractional resurfacing laser which can help with prevention of early signs of aging and to maintain younger looking skin. It can help with the overall skin texture and elasticity, and to minimizes pore size. Clear and Brilliant Permea laser helps to improve tone, radiance, melasma and enhances skin permeability for topical products. It is safe for all skin types and the results can be enhanced when it is combined with Platelet Rich Plasma.

In my opinion, the Permea (1927nm vs 1440nm) will be a great addition to your treatment. It can brighten the appearance of your skin, as well as reduce fine lines and lift pigment! It is recommended to have at least 2-3 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart. There is little to no downtime except for mild redness (which can easily be covered with make-up). #weightloss    #agespots    #brighterskin

Thank you for your question. Results will vary depending on several factors including past treatments, your current skin care routine, and the proposed treatment combined with how aggressive the treatment is to be.  The most important is a skilled practitioner who knows your skin, and the best alternatives for you.   Be certain to be under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with expertise in laser surgery for the most effective and safe treatments. I hope this helps.

Clear + Brilliant is one of the most gentle but effective laser treatments for patients who want to reverse signs of aging. The treatment requires little to no recovery downtime for patients, making it an ideal option for people with busy schedules. Clear + Brilliant's safe, cutting-edge procedure will promote both deep and surface skin healing. This results in tighter skin and pores, reduction of scars, and the removal of hyperpigmentation and age spots from the skin. Clear + Brilliant with Permea will apply targeted thermal energy to the deeper dermis as well, which will successfully jumpstart your skin's collagen production. While you will be free to return to work the same day as your Clear + Brilliant, your skin will peel throughout the week following their treatment. This is a normal part of your skin’s renewal process. As your new skin works its way to your epidermis, it will have improved volume and elasticity thanks to your new collagen. This additional volume will add youthful support to your skin, filling in your fine lines and wrinkles. With a well-spaced treatment plan of 4 to 6 sessions, patients can take years off their appearance with Clear + Brilliant.A consultation with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon is an excellent way to determine what skin rejuvenation procedure will be right for you. 

C + B is great for minor pigmentation issues, and minor wrinkles and fine lines. It is a gentle laser. It is NOT a corrective laser. The more gentle something is the less deep it us and the less correction you will experience. This is a good laser for youngish crowd that have minor cosmetic issues. I perform a series of 6 separated by 2-4 weeks. 

Clear and Brilliant and the Permea feature as well, are safe for all skin types. I am impressed with the results for improved texture and more even skin color. I recommend this device for younger patients who don't need the Fraxel Dual and for those who had a Fraxel Dual and couple of years have passed and they need a booster treatment. Patients enjoy the no downtime feature. It sounds like you are getting good advice.

Hi There, 

Clear+Brilliant Laser helps fights early signs of aging, maintain younger looking skin, and improves skins radiance and texture. There are two treatments offered with the Clear+Brilliant Laser. The Permea is effective in enhancing radiance and tone and the Original aims at improving the skins texture. Your face and decolletage can be treated with minimal redness and no downtime. The fine lines and texture will see noticeable improvement, however, I would recommend a consultation to pinpoint your needs and determine if this is the right laser for you. 

Hope this helps,
