Clear + Brilliant Perméa in Charlotte

Medically reviewed by Dr. Richard Paul Greenberg on 6/4/24

If early signs of aging are making you look less radiant, it may be time to discover the rejuvenating power of Clear + Brilliant/ Perméa.

One of many popular anti-aging treatments offered at Ageless Remedies SouthPark Med Spa in Charlotte, NC, Clear + Brilliant is a noninvasive laser treatment that uses fractional laser technology to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. This promotes collagen production, giving your skin a younger, healthier glow.

Approved by the FDA, Clear + Brilliant can address a range of skin concerns, from enlarged pores to hyperpigmentation. Results typically appear within one to two weeks of treatment and progressively improve in the months to follow.

Benefits of Clear + Brilliant Perméa

Clear and Brilliant is a gentle treatment that can address and prevent the early signs of aging. Key benefits include:

  • Improved Skin Tone: Clear + Brilliant Perméa can reduce pigmentation irregularities such as sunspots and melasma, giving you a brighter and more radiant complexion.
  • Increased Skin Permeability: Clear + Brilliant Perméa enhances the skin’s permeability, allowing for better absorption of topical skincare products. This maximizes the effectiveness of your skincare regimen and helps maintain long-term skin health.
  • Youthful Appearance: By stimulating collagen production and promoting cellular turnover, Clear + Brilliant Perméa can help you maintain a youthful appearance and prevent early signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity.
  • Minimal Downtime: Since Clear + Brilliant is a nonsurgical solution, you can enjoy quick results without a lengthy recovery. Most patients resume normal activities right after their treatment session.
  • FDA-Approved: Clear + Brilliant is FDA-approved, meaning it has undergone rigorous clinical testing and meets high standards for quality and performance.

  • Have pigment irregularities, such as sun damage or melasma
  • Prefer a gentle and minimally invasive treatment option with little to no downtime

Skin Types and Conditions

Clear + Brilliant Perméa can help improve a variety of skin types and conditions, including:

  • Uneven skin tone and texture
  • Pigmentation irregularities such as sunspots, age spots and freckles
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Rough skin texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Mild to moderate acne scars
  • Sun damage and photoaging
  • Overall skin dullness and lack of radiance
 

Clear + Brilliant Perméa is suitable for individuals with all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it’s essential to consult with a qualified skincare professional to determine if Clear + Brilliant Perméa is the right treatment option for you.

What to Expect During Clear + Brilliant Perméa Treatment

Clear + Brilliant Perméa is a safe and effective way to give your skin a youthful glow. Sessions typically last 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the area being treated, and are relatively painless. Here’s what you can expect during your Clear + Brilliant laser treatment.

Step 1: Consultation

Before treatment, you will meet with your skin care professional to discuss your skin concerns, treatment goals and medical history. They will assess your skin and determine if Clear + Brilliant Perméa is suitable for you.

Step 2: Preparation

Before receiving Clear + Brilliant, topical numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area. Your skin will also be cleansed to remove any makeup, oils or debris.

Step 3: Treatment

Once your skin is prepped, your provider will give you protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light. They will then move the Clear and Brilliant Perméa handpiece gently over the treatment area. The laser energy will be delivered to the skin’s surface in a series of precise, overlapping passes. 

You may feel a mild tingling or heat sensation during the treatment. To minimize discomfort, your provider will use a cooling fan.

Step 4: Post-Treatment Care

After treatment, your provider will apply a soothing gel to your skin. They will also provide specific post-treatment instructions.

Potential side effects

Approved by the FDA, Clear + Brilliant is a safe and effective intervention. However, like any cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects. Most patients experience minor swelling and redness in the hours following treatment and dryness and peeling in the days to follow.

To lessen side effects and ensure optimal results, you should: 

  • Minimize sun exposure by wearing protective clothing 
  • Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily
  • Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated 
  • Refrain from using exfoliating scrubs and other harsh skincare products 
  • Cleanse your skin gently with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser
  • Follow any additional post-care instructions provided by your skincare professional

Charlotte Clear + Brilliant Perméa FAQs

What is the difference between Clear + Brilliant and Clear + Brilliant Perméa?

Clear + Brilliant and Clear + Brilliant Perméa are both fractional laser treatments that improve skin tone, texture and overall radiance. The main difference lies in the wavelength used. Clear + Brilliant utilizes a 1440 nanometer wavelength, which penetrates deep into the skin to shrink enlarged pores, reduce fine lines and enhance skin firmness.

Comparatively, Clear + Brilliant Perméa uses a 1927 nanometer wavelength laser, which targets pigment irregularities on the skin's surface and promotes overall skin rejuvenation. Since these two treatments use the same platform, your healthcare provider can seamlessly integrate both therapies into a single session.

How does Clear + Brilliant Perméa work?

Clear and Brilliant Perméa works by creating millions of microscopic treatment zones in the upper layers of the skin, which replaces damaged skin with healthy tissue and yields a younger, fresher complexion.

How long does Clear + Brilliant Perméa last?

The results of Clear + Brilliant Perméa are both immediate and progressive. Within a week or two after treatment, your skin will start to feel softer and look brighter. Results can last for months depending on age, skin condition and how you protect your skin.

How much does Clear + Brilliant Perméa cost?

The cost of Clear + Brilliant Perméa depends on your individual treatment plan. However, this noninvasive solution is much more affordable than surgical interventions.

How should I prepare for my Clear + Brilliant Perméa treatment?

Before receiving Clear + Brilliant Perméa treatment, most skincare specialists recommend that you avoid direct sun exposure, discontinue certain topical skincare products (e.g., retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids), discontinue certain medications that could increase your risk of bruising and drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated.

Is Clear + Brilliant Perméa better than microneedling?

Not necessarily. Clear + Brilliant Perméa may be preferred for individuals seeking to improve skin tone, reduce pigmentation issues and enhance overall radiance, while microneedling may be preferred for those targeting fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and uneven texture. Luckily, you don’t have to pick just one therapy! Your healthcare provider can work with you to create a custom treatment plan that integrates both procedures for optimal results.

Additional Services to Consider

When Clear + Brilliant treatments are paired with complementary procedures, you can enjoy even more impressive and long-lasting outcomes. Here are some common interventions that can be coupled with Clear + Brilliant in Charlotte:

Dermal fillers

Combining Clear + Brilliant laser treatments with dermal fillers offers a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. While Clear + Brilliant Perméa improves skin texture and tone, dermal fillers enhance facial contours and smooth stubborn wrinkles using a safe, naturally-occurring substance called hyaluronic acid. When combined, these two treatments afford amazing, long-lasting results.

Botox

Botox is a cosmetic injectable that reduces the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles. Comparatively, Clear and Brilliant Perméa stimulates collagen production and skin renewal, leading to gradual improvement in the months following treatment. By pairing these two interventions, you can achieve fresher, younger-looking skin.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device containing fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. Treatment plans that integrate both microneedling and Clear + Brilliant can give you the dramatic confidence boost you deserve.
