Clinic treatment
Clear + Brilliant (gentle fractional)
A "baby Fraxel" for glow, early pigment and prevention.
Worth it?
3/5Nice, subtle, low-risk — but the results are modest. Worth it for maintenance, not for real problems.
How it works
A low-energy fractional laser treats a small percentage of skin per pass, nudging collagen renewal and shedding of dull surface cells.
How it feels
Prickly warmth after numbing cream; tolerable for most.
Clear + Brilliant (gentle fractional) downtime — and is it worth it?
How much downtime: Low — A day of pinkness and a rough, sandpaper feel for 2–3 days.
Cost for that downtime: $300–$500 per session, 4–6 sessions, 2–4 weeks apart.
Is it worth it? Our verdict (3/5): Nice, subtle, low-risk — but the results are modest. Worth it for maintenance, not for real problems.
