Clear + Brilliant® Laser Skin Resurfacing
Environmental pollutants, stress, and aging can all contribute to a tired or dull complexion. Clear + Brilliant at our Manhattan office can smooth away fine lines and refresh skin for a radiant glow. Cosmetic laser resurfacing treatments have long been recognized as an excellent way to rejuvenate skin and correct early signs of aging, but many traditional laser procedures require a lengthy recovery period. Clear + Brilliant is revolutionary because it is a gentle laser and effectively improves skin tone and texture for all skin types with little to no downtime.
Why Choose 740 Park Plastic Surgery for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Our Aesthetic Registered Nurse Tamara Spaide is a skin rejuvenation specialist with extensive experience in minimally invasive anti-aging treatments. Tamara often recommends Clear + Brilliant for men and women who are seeking a skincare treatment that is more effective than topical products but without the time commitment of other laser procedures.

How Does Clear + Brilliant Work?
Clear + Brilliant is a non-ablative fractional laser that works by targeting specific areas in the upper layers of skin with microscopic thermal energy. Your body will respond to fractional laser technology by replacing damaged skin with new healthy skin cells. It does this by increasing natural collagen production to reveal firmer, clearer, younger-looking skin. Clear + Brilliant may be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as BOTOX® and injectable dermal fillers.
Preparing for Clear + Brilliant Laser Treatment
Minimal preparation is needed for Clear + Brilliant. If you are interested in skin rejuvenation, a consultation appointment with Tamara Spaide, RN at our Manhattan office should be your first step. She will evaluate your skin and discuss your goals in order to determine if Clear + Brilliant is right for you.
What to Expect During Your Clear + Brilliant Procedure
Clear + Brilliant is a quick, in-office procedure with no incisions or needles. A topical numbing cream may be applied prior to treatment to minimize any potential discomfort. The specialized Clear + Brilliant handpiece will be gently guided over your skin for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. This procedure uses a patented Intelligent Optical Tracking™ System to ensure optimal and even application of laser energy during treatment.
Recovery after Clear + Brilliant
Very minimal downtime is required after Clear + Brilliant. You may experience some redness, swelling, and peeling in the treatment area for a day or two following your procedure. Any side effects should resolve quickly and while patients can typically resume regular activities right away, we do recommend limiting direct sun exposure for at least one week.
Clear + Brilliant Results
While you may notice some results immediately, Clear + Brilliant results are progressive and will continue to improve as your collagen production increases. You can expect softer, brighter, and more healthy skin that is refined and even-toned. You will enjoy optimal results with a skin care regimen that includes sunscreen.
