Clear and Brilliant Laser Treatments

Clear and Brilliant laser treatments work by creating millions of microscopic treatment areas in your skin, allowing your damaged skin cells to be replaced with new healthy skin tissue with a youthful glow; your damaged skin is refined and refreshed from the inside out. Our patients report that their skin looks and feels younger with a visibly illuminated skin tone or renewed ‘glow’ and smoothness following Clear + Brilliant.

Microscopic Treatment Zones

Depending on your concern, treatment can be a single session, however, results are accumulative and after each consecutive treatment, your results can become more significant and noticeable. Results are progressive; you are unlikely to notice immediate results from the treatment however in the days following your treatment, your skin can start to look brighter, more refined, feel softer and show a more even tone and texture.

Indications that Clear and Brilliant Laser may be right for you:

  • You would like to improve the appearance of your pores; in 2012 Clear + Brilliant was announced as the ‘gold standard’ treatment for pore refining at the annual American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery conference.
  • You have an uneven tone and texture that you would like to address.
  • You like the way your skin currently looks and want to help maintain your fresh, youthful look for years to come.
  • You have a consistent approach to your skincare and are looking to boost your results.
  • You already have or plan to start a skin care regimen to help protect against the natural and environmental effects of ageing skin.
  • You don’t have the desire, time or need for more invasive procedures like cosmetic surgery or aggressive resurfacing treatments.

Will I need to take time off work after having the Clear and Brilliant laser treatment?

In our experience, no. We do advise that when you have this cosmetic procedure for the first time, plan it for when you don’t have any social or work commitments the next day so that you can better understand how your skin tone recovers without any pressure or anxiety about it your recovery.

How frequently can I have repeat Clear and Brilliant treatments?

Usually, the minimum time we recommend between treatment sessions is a month. Your practitioner will assess your skin and your needs and make an individual recommendation for you.

Are there any skin tone side effects to the Clear and Brilliant treatment?

Clear + Brilliant has a great safety profile and at The Skin, to Love Clinic we are able to draw upon a huge wealth of expertise and experience as one of our practitioners is the trainer to other medical practitioners using this laser in the UK and Europe.

Consultations are an important part of the treatment process in allowing you to understand the treatment and to establish if the benefits of the treatment are outweighed by any possible side effects.

During a skin consultation, your concerns will be assessed. Your medical practitioner will be able to discuss whether this treatment is appropriate for you, as well as any suitable alternative treatments.

Your practitioner will discuss any possible side effects, questions you may have and any aftercare you should adhere to prior to you having laser treatments.

I’m looking for dramatic correction for my signs of ageing, is this Clear and Brilliant right for me?

We will be able to give you specific advice during your consultation, however, if you have very sun-damaged, loose skin and/or have other advanced signs of ageing such as deep wrinkles there may be alternative treatments for you such as Fraxel, Thermage CPT, Wrinkle Relaxing Injections, Dermal Fillers and the Thread Lift treatment.

You may need more than one treatment of Clear + Brilliant to achieve your results. You and your practitioner will create a skin condition treatment plan which may include using this treatment alongside other cosmetic procedures.

Am I too young for the Clear and Brilliant treatment?

This treatment is easily incorporated into your current personalized treatment regimen and lifestyle so patients often use this gentle laser treatment to boost at-home skincare efforts, maintain their skin and help prevent signs of ageing.

If your skin doesn’t need much correction, you have or are planning to take the basic steps to keep your skin looking its best, and you like the way you look now, Clear + Brilliant can help maintain your skin’s youthful appearance and prevent the early signs of ageing.

There is no reason why those in their 20s and 30s shouldn’t consider this treatment as a preventative treatment and maintain and improve healthy skin.

Treatment Summary

No. of treatments
Depends on your concern. You can have single sessions, but a course may be beneficial. This will be assed and discussed with you prior to treatment

Procedure time
30 to 40 minutes if treating the face. We usually recommend using an anaesthetic cream on the skin for 30 to 60 minutes prior to treatment, which would be applied in-clinic by one of our practitioners to ensure your comfort

Final results
Dependent on your concerns. You can expect to start seeing changes approximately 4 days post treatment

Recovery time
Some patients will look flushed immediately after treatment which usually subsides after 12 to 24 hours. For a few days after the treatment your skin may feel a little rough, often described as ‘sandpapery’; this is usually only noticed by the patient and not by others and will gradually subside

Most patients find that they can continue their usual activities with the use of a tinted moisturiser the following day. Full aftercare will be provided prior to treatment

Discomfort level
Non to mild with the use of local anaesthetic cream. Patients liken the sensation to warm scratches

Duration of results
Months to years dependent on concern treated and number of treatment sessions

Consultation needed prior

Had another great treatment at the clinic. An hydrofacial platinum. I would highly recommend it. I've had these before else where but this way by far the best. Super relaxing and I left looking vibrant. Worth every penny. I'm now booked for Laser to remove some broken capillaries around the nose area. I am really looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend Skin to Love.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the wonderful review, and for coming back to see us, Maria. We're thrilled the HydraFacial Platinum left you feeling relaxed and looking vibrant. Looking forward to seeing you for your laser treatment soon!

A great appointment with Jane today for Fraxel. Not to be confused with a relaxing facial treat but the results are amazing. Over time, my pigmentation has vastly reduced, clarity and brightness returned with a smoother overall complexion. A few days downtime which is fine and so worth it, I wouldn't trust anywhere else for skincare advice and treatment. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Carey, thank you so much for leaving us feedback and for sharing your Fraxel experience. It's a total pleasure looking after you. Thank you for your loyalty, it means a lot.
