What is Clear + Brilliant?

Let’s start with the basics

Clear + Brilliant is a gentle, non-invasive laser treatment that helps improve your skin’s texture, tone, and radiance by targeting early signs of aging, like fine lines, pores, and dullness, without the downtime of stronger lasers. The treatment uses a fractional laser that creates tiny, microscopic zones on the skin’s surface, which kickstart your skin’s healing process and boost collagen production. It’s a great option for anyone looking to keep their skin looking fresh and youthful or enhance their skincare routine with a simple, effective treatment.

What to Expect on the Day of a Clear + Brilliant Treatment

During your Clear + Brilliant treatment, a handheld laser device will be moved across your skin for about 20–30 minutes. The laser creates tiny, controlled pulses of energy that target the outer layers of your skin to stimulate collagen production and encourage your natural healing process. This will help improve skin texture and even tone and boost radiance. While the treatment is generally mild, you may feel a slight tingling or warmth, but it’s usually well-tolerated. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and effective, leaving you with smoother, more refreshed-looking skin.

Clear + Brilliant Recovery

Right after the procedure, your skin may look a little red, like a mild sunburn, and might feel tight or dry. This usually goes away within a few hours. In the following days, you might experience light flaking or peeling as your skin renews. Just make sure to keep your skin moisturized and apply sunscreen to protect it since it will be more sensitive to the sun. Most people can get back to their regular routine right away, though avoiding intense exercise or anything that might make you sweat for the first day or two is a good idea. The recovery is smooth, with your skin looking smoother and more refreshed in just a few days.

FAQs

Your procedure questions answered.

Is Clear + Brilliant Painful?

During the session, you might feel a mild tingling or a warming sensation on your skin, but it’s not painful.

For those with more sensitive skin, a numbing cream is often applied beforehand, making the experience even more relaxed. Afterward, your skin might feel a little red or swollen, like a light sunburn, but that fades quickly—usually within a few hours.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

For Clear + Brilliant, most people typically need 2 to 4 treatments for optimal results. These sessions are usually spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart to give your skin time to heal and regenerate.

However, the exact number of appointments can vary depending on your skin’s needs and goals. Some people see great results with just one or two sessions if they’re looking for a quick refresh, while others may opt for a series to address more specific concerns like fine lines or uneven texture.

After your initial series, many people choose to maintain their results with a treatment every few months.

How Long Until I See the Results?

With Clear + Brilliant, you’ll likely start noticing subtle improvements in your skin within a few days to a week after your first treatment. The skin’s texture, tone, and radiance will begin to look more refreshed and glowing.

For more dramatic results, especially when addressing fine lines or more significant skin concerns, the full effects can take a few weeks to a couple of months to show. This is because the laser stimulates collagen production, which takes time to build and strengthen the skin.

If you undergo multiple treatments, your results will improve with each session. Over time, your skin will feel smoother, look more even, and have a natural, youthful glow. Many people choose to undergo a series of treatments to achieve the best results.

Can I Combine Clear + Brilliant with Other Procedures?

Clear + Brilliant can be easily combined with other treatments to enhance results and target multiple skin concerns. Many people pair it with procedures like:
