Treatment details

You will be given a topical numbing agent that takes about 20 to 30 minutes to work. Once you’re numbed, we will remove the topical and treatment will begin. The handheld laser device will pass over the skin, using the laser light to make millions of microscopic holes within your skin. This causes your normal skin to re-epithelialize and grow in, resulting in skin that is more soft, supple, and beautiful. Treatments are very tolerable and take about 30 minutes. While patients notice results with just one treatment, we recommend a series of four sessions scheduled one month apart for optimal results. Texture and tone results may require more treatments. During your consultation, we will determine how many treatments you will need.

Recovery

With both Clear + Brilliant and Perméa, recovery time is minimal. Your skin may have a sunburn-like feeling and/or some swelling for a few days, and your skin may feel rough. This is normal and means that the dead skin cells are leaving.

Although results are apparent after just one treatment, your skin will continue to look better and better with multiple sessions. With each treatment, your outcome will become more visible and dramatic. Depending on your age, the condition of your skin, and your personal skincare routine, results can last for months.
