This laser treatment works by creating millions of microscopic treatment areas in your skin, allowing your damaged skin cells to be replaced with new healthy, younger-looking tissue; your skin is refined and refreshed from the inside out. Our patients report that their skin looks and feels younger with a renewed ‘glow’ and smoothness following Clear + Brilliant.
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 + Brilliant 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 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 this the Clear and Brilliant treatment?
In our experience, no. We do advise that when you have this treatment 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 recovers without any pressure or anxiety about 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 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 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 treatment.
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 treatment plan which may include using this treatment alongside other treatments.
Am I too young for the Clear and Brilliant treatment?
This treatment is easily incorporated into your current skincare regime and lifestyle so patients often use this gentle laser treatment to boost at-home skincare efforts, to maintain their skin and to 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 aging.
There is no reason why those in their 20’s and 30’s shouldn’t consider this treatment as a preventative treatment and to maintain and improve healthy skin.

What people have said...
Amazing & very knowledgeable staff. Very informative in regards to how to use products and the products are very high quality. Not too expensive and already showing signs of improvement. Would highly, highly recommend.
Amazing experience. Jane The dermatologist was knowledgeable but also caring, she gave me tailored advice and an aftercare plan. She made sure I knew what was going to happen and was comfortable throughout the whole procedure. She listened to my concerns and found ways to work with my situation, even gave me some stress ball to help with my nerves :). Looking forward to my next appointment.
had my first treatment today what a lovely experience. Can’t wait till I can see the results and my follow up treatment next month. Thank you Jane 😊
My therapist was very attentive listening and watching to check I was not uncomfortable.I felt confident in her hands due to her professionalism.
I had 2 skin tags removed by my eyes made me feel very calm and was told what was going on lovely staff make you feel comfortable definitely recommend to anyone
Fantastic clinic. Lovely warm and welcoming team who really are experts in their field. My skin has never looked better! I highly recommend.
Thank you Jane, for the friendly professional way you looked at my skin problem with me, it was certainly a lot more in depth and informative than I was expecting, I started the two products that you recommended, using them last night and this morning. I am looking forward to laser treatment you recommended to reduce the scarring that acne has left on my face. First class service, thank you. — Brandon
I had my consultation with Jane today to discuss best treatment for my skin concerns. she was very knowledgable and informative and gave me the best options for my concerns. I was very happy, definitely recommend "Skin to Love Clinic".
I cannot recommend the team the innovation and treatments more highly than at the Skin To Love Clinic. They are at the cutting edge of beauty and have new ways and procedures that make your skin look beautiful. I've spent many years on Harley and Wimpole street and assumed you couldn't get this level of investment and treatments anywhere else but the Skin the Love clinic not only offer every top treatment but the Jane and Sue are so skillful and have a real eye for what will work for you. Their mini thread lift is incredible as is their 'vampire' treatment but skin since I have moved to St Albans has improved dramatically
The staff are friendly, professional and very helpful.Dr Critchow’s knowledge is second to none. I highly recommend this service
The nurse who saw me was excellent - friendly, professional and sympathetic to my condition. I was treated with respect and felt extremely comfortable and reassured throughout the appointment. I would thoroughly recommend Skintolove to anyone with a concerning skin condition.
Jane is absolutely amazing (as with the rest of the team of course!). She goes above and beyond to make you feel at ease before, during and after treatment and ensures you're comfortable throughout. I love the Skin to Love clinic and all everything everyone has done for me. Always a very happy customer!

Top class treatment, unique experience from start to finish. Impressive after care service, could not praise enough
I have several issues with my skin and have been working with my doctor to deal with them. He referred me to a Dermatologist who advised on the treatment I needed. It took me a while to find the right place with the level of expertise that I needed and The Skin to Love Clinic ticked all of the boxes. My first experience with The Skin to Love Clinic was about 2 years ago. I had a consultation with Jane and immediately knew I was in good hands. I had a series of Fraxel laser which dealt with the issue as well as improved the quality of my skin. I am now dealing with a different issue and without hesitation made an appointment with Jane. What a relief to know that once again, I will be in the best hands and get the most appropriate treatment for my skin, not only dealing with the issue but also improving the health of my skin at the same time.
I visited the Skin to Love Clinic today for my fourth and final treatment of Sunekos today. The results have exceeded my expectations. My skin is plumper and lines are definitely diminished. I look younger, healthier and I’m definitely happier. As always the experience was second to none from the moment you walk through the front door, from the receptionist, to all the clinicians, who make you feel welcome and comfortable with their warmth and friendliness whilst still maintaining their professionalism, instilling the confidence needed when embarking on cosmetic treatments. Thank you to all the team! I can’t recommend this clinic enough! Rita x
I had a consultation today, the clinic is lovely and staff are very welcoming, I’m so happy with the information I was given, I’m quite excited to start using the products recommended for my skin type and see the change that occurs, it was so nice to actually have a in-depth conversation with someone that clearly knows what they are talking about, in the past Iv always made the mistake of trusting a beautician and trying treatments that are not suited to my skin.. yes they are great at some things they do but they are not trained enough to offer the advice and treatment that has been offered to me at the skin to love clinic... it’s also great to see the breakdown of all the skin complaints on the computer as it helps to point out the main issues, i can’t wait to start treatment in the very near future, fingers crossed onwards and upwards... thanks for the help today
The Ice Soprano laser treatment is actually bearable. In fact, I hardly felt much! I was in for just over 2 hours and I was nervous but honestly it was a breeze. I had previously had 4 treatments of laser hair removal years ago (somewhere else and not the soprano ice) and it was so painful, but this wasn't at all! Today was my first session, I have 7 more to go and now I'm not worried about that :)
All the staff are lovely & really knowledgable. Clinic is a nice environment, very clean & comfortable. Charlotte put me at ease throughout the treatment & the whole experience was very positive. Definitely recommend
My visit today was excellent! and very relaxed. Treatment was explained and shown by jayne in a professional and friendly manner. Thank you to all the team at the skin clinic.
A huge thank you to Jane Lewis at The Skin to Love Clinic for my wonderful treatment today (dermal fillers in my cheeks and lower face). I am in my mid 40’s and was really starting to notice that the area around my mouth and jowls was looking rather droopy and saggy. I am also getting married in a few weeks and was in need of some gentle rejuvenation. Jane gave me fillers in my cheeks to lift up the lines and then gently filled the area around my nose to mouth lines, chin and jaw. What a skilled nurse she is, she was extremely gentle and very reassuring, explaining everything step by step. It didn’t hurt at all, and all I could feel was a tiny scratch when the needle first goes in, but that was it. The results are amazing, instantly I can see that my saggy lower face has lifted, the lines are smoother and I have a little more subtle volume in my cheeks. No bruises or red marks. In fact, no-one would know, I just look better and refreshed, a few years taken off of me in time for my wedding. I am over the moon, thank you so much Jane and her fabulous clinic manager Kerri. I will definitely be back 😊.
I made the mistake of buying a product called Eyesential; an under eye enhancer which temporarily erases puffiness, fine lines, dark circles and wrinkles in minutes and lasts for up to 8 hours. I used this product for a period of 7 years. During this time, the skin under and around my eyes became thinner, reddened, chronically dry and intensely wrinkled. I thought there was nothing I could do and would be left like this. I felt so depressed. Then one day when I was in The Skin to Love Clinic having treatment for Laser Hair Removal; I was informed about Thermage for the very first time. I now have this procedure done yearly. Jane has brought my skin back to its original state and more. My confidence has come back and I feel a so much happier. This treatment really works!
The Skin to Love clinic is the most special clinic in that it offers a personal, comfortable and reassuring service. I have had various treatments and I always love the attention to detail and the way I am made to feel. It really is a very special place and the ladies are extremely knowledgeable and experts, I trust them with everything. My skin and my confidence is thanks to the wonderful team that make Skin to Love! Stacey Turner

I went to The Skin To Love Clinic for a consultation today with regard to gaining treatment advice for the skin on my stomach after having three children. I did my research and after travelling for over an hour I met with Jane. I could not have asked for a warmer welcome from Jane and her team. She instantly put me at ease with her knowledge and understanding of the treatments that are provided at her clinic. She gave me a thorough run down of what she thought would be best for me and why. From the moment I arrived to my departure, I found the staff and environment to be extremely professional yet inviting. I am looking forward to going back and having my treatments.Having now been back to the Clinic to see Jane for the third time today and I stand by what I have said above. Jane is outstanding in her knowledge of treatments and explains them thoroughly. An outstanding setting which I am so pleased I have found and one that I would highly recommend.
I've had many treatments at this clinic which I must say the results have been above my expectations. I'm now enjoying a course of Byoniks- love the way my skin feels and looks after. Im not surprised they have won so many awards. Keep up the good work ladies.

I had another memorable day at the Skin-To-Love Clinic in St. Albans on Tuesday 26 March 2019. The founder and her staff including the Skin Expert are always polite, respectful and approachable, which in my opinion is second to none in the industry. I do enjoy making the journey from London to see Sharon, the Skin Expert at the Clinic. I am happy the treatment has worked and I will be submitting a full review of my Obagi skin care regime, shortly.
Amazing friendly, informative and supportive service. Always a pleasure.
Always a joy at skin to love, professional service which definitely shows results, calming, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, what more could you ask for??!!!
I have been back to the clinic for 2 treatments, one with Jane and the other with Natalia who are both extremely professional and brilliant at what they do, as is all the team. One treatment was new and I was a little apprehensive about it, but Jane make we feel totally at easy and explained what was happening each step of the way. I am really happy with the results and highly recommend them as experts in their field
Fantastic clinic. Lovely warm and welcoming team who really are experts in their field. My skin has never looked better! I highly recommend.
I love the place and the treatment, really happy with the results. Laura is really nice and professional.

Very pleased with service advise and support before, during and after my procedure . Thank you Jane
Extremely professional and attentive staff! I highly recommend the Skin to Love Clinic! Jane the therapist made me feel like a princess! Her approach and treatment are commendable! Thank you all and have a great Christmas, Margarita
I tried the new Byonik treatment which was really good. It was the first session so wasn't expecting any big changes to my skin but it looked lovely and fresh afterwards and it was very relaxing. To see better results I think I would need to have another 2-3 sessions. The staff are very professional, very skilled and knowledgeable about all the treatments available and I trust them with my skin. MT
Absolutely delighted every time i visit . A faultless professional , service and such a lovely team of ladies
Very quick procedure, in great location with very knowledgeable dermatologist Dr. Sharon Crichlow. Very happy with the result.
The team is super awesome .. they know what they are talking about, treat you like a friend and do the best. Love it.
The welcome and ambiance of The Skin to Love Clinic was perfect.Jane has a rare skill - she listens! She manages to combine her insight with professionalism , empathy and sound advice. The wealth of her experience and knowledge is obvious and there was no pressure to commit to any treatments - in fact her advice was to go away and think about the options.I feel I have just discovered a real gem of a place and a very special practitioner!
No false promises, professional and kind staff.I was made to feel completely relaxed, would highly recommend.I just wish I had sought my treatment earlier.
I have been a client for the last 4 years and can honestly say that my skin looks better and younger now - love the skin scanner technology to get an objective view. I have done courses of clear and brilliant and am now doing Regenlite course - getting Jane’s expert advise is great and as a result I am actually using less products than before. Everyone at the clinic is super welcoming/friendly - would highly recommend clinic!Brigitte
Fantastic clinic. Lovely warm and welcoming team who really are experts in their field. My skin has never looked better! I highly recommend.
