If your skin looks dull, uneven, or sun-worn but you are not looking for a major resurfacing recovery, a lighter fractional laser may be a better fit.<\/p>\n

Clear + Brilliant and Permea are designed for gradual improvement in tone and texture with less downtime than deeper resurfacing.<\/p>\n

We use them selectively and adjust treatment to your skin tone, goals, and tolerance for recovery.<\/p>\n

Recovery & Results<\/h3>

Daily activities:<\/strong> Often the next day.
Visible recovery:<\/strong> Redness often eases in 12\u201324 hours; roughness can last several days or longer.
Results:<\/strong> Gradual tone and texture improvement; a series may be recommended.<\/p><\/div>\n

What does Clear + Brilliant treat?<\/h2>

Treatment may improve selected concerns involving fine surface texture, the appearance of pores, mild uneven tone and early photoaging. It is not a treatment for every brown spot, a replacement for skin-cancer evaluation, or a solution for significant sagging or deep scars. Bring your main concern to the consultation so we can match the treatment to the problem.<\/p>

Clear + Brilliant and Permea: choosing the approach<\/h2>

The Clear + Brilliant family includes different treatment options, including Permea. The handpiece and treatment plan are selected according to the concern, skin characteristics and available equipment. A brand name alone does not determine the settings, number of visits or outcome. Ask which approach is being recommended and what it is intended to improve.<\/p>

Nonablative treatment creates microscopic treatment zones without the same surface removal involved in ablative CO2 resurfacing. A lighter treatment may suit someone prioritizing a shorter recovery, but it should not be expected to deliver the same result as a deeper procedure.<\/p>

What happens before and during treatment?<\/h2>

We review your history of pigmentation, cold sores, unusual scarring, recent tanning, current skin irritation and previous procedures. Bring a list of prescriptions, supplements and skin-care products. Do not stop prescribed medication on your own. Your clinician will explain any preparation, the comfort measures appropriate for you, eye protection and the planned treatment area.<\/p>

Recovery, results and important risks<\/h2>

Temporary warmth, redness, swelling, dryness or a rough-feeling surface can follow treatment. Recovery varies with the treatment and your skin; minimal downtime does not mean no downtime. Follow the individualized cleansing, moisturizing and sun-protection instructions, and ask when makeup and active skin-care ingredients may be resumed.<\/p>

Risks include irritation, burns, infection, prolonged redness, pigment changes and scarring. Melanin-rich skin, a recent tan and a history of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation require particular care. Improvement is gradual, and a series or maintenance plan may be discussed without guaranteeing a particular result.<\/p>

Planning your visit<\/h2>

Clear + Brilliant is best considered when the expected benefit justifies the downtime, cost, and pigment risk for your skin. Treatment settings and location are confirmed before the procedure.<\/p>

Your Questions, Answered<\/h2>

Why does my skin feel like sandpaper?<\/h3>

Temporary dryness and roughness can occur. Avoid scrubbing or picking.<\/p>

Did it work if I barely peeled?<\/h3>

Visible peeling does not reliably measure results.<\/p>

Recovery varies with your skin, treatment area and settings. Follow your individual aftercare instructions.<\/p>
