More about this treatment
Clear & Brilliant works by creating millions of microscopic treatment zones in the upper layers of the skin, which triggers the body’s natural healing process. This stimulates collagen production, resulting in improved skin tone, texture, and radiance. The treatment is effective in addressing early signs of aging, fine lines, uneven skin tone, and enlarged pores.
This gentle laser treatment is particularly beneficial for those who wish to maintain a youthful appearance without undergoing more invasive cosmetic procedures. By promoting the replacement of damaged skin with healthy-looking tissue, Clear + Brilliant helps to ensure visibly illuminated skin tone and smoother texture. It is suitable for all skin types and can be customized to address specific skin concerns.
Patients often describe the sensation during the procedure as a mild tingling or warmth, reflecting the gentle yet effective nature of the treatment. With minimal downtime, Clear + Brilliant allows individuals to quickly resume their daily activities while enjoying the benefits of a more even skin tone and a radiant glow.
It is crucial to choose a qualified practitioner for this cosmetic procedure to ensure proper care and precautions, such as the use of anaesthetic cream and post-treatment skin protection.
For optimal results, a series of treatment sessions may be recommended by your skin care professional, depending on your unique skin condition and desired outcomes. This non-ablative laser treatment is not only a preventive measure against ageing skin but also an excellent addition to a comprehensive skin care regime. As a clinically proven method, Clear + Brilliant is a trusted choice for those seeking a healthier, more youthful complexion without the need for extensive recovery time.
What Results Are Typically Achieved
Patients can expect to see noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall radiance. The treatment helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, pores, and early signs of aging, leaving the skin looking refreshed and more youthful. Optimal results are typically seen after a series of treatments, spaced several weeks apart. Results from Clear + Brilliant treatments are progressive and can last for months depending on the skin condition and care, making it a long-lasting solution for skin rejuvenation.
Long-Term Benefits and Maintenance
Clear + Brilliant laser treatments offer more than just immediate visible improvements. Over time, as collagen production is stimulated and damaged skin is replaced with healthy-looking tissue, patients can enjoy a smoother texture and more even skin tone. This gentle laser treatment is an ideal solution for maintaining the skin’s youthful appearance and preventing further damage from sun exposure and environmental factors. Some individuals may experience temporary skin sensitivity following the treatment, which is a normal part of the skin’s natural renewal process and typically subsides within a few days.
Regular sessions can be integrated into a comprehensive skin care regime to continuously address skin concerns and enhance the skin’s overall health. The non-ablative laser technology ensures minimal downtime, allowing patients to quickly return to daily activities while enjoying the cumulative benefits of the treatment. Many patients find that routine treatments help maintain their youthful glow and radiant complexion, making Clear + Brilliant an excellent choice for those seeking a proactive approach to skin care.
Versatility Across Skin Types
Clear + Brilliant is suitable for all skin types and tones, making it a versatile option for anyone looking to improve their skin condition. Whether dealing with sun damage, unwanted pigmentation, or simply aiming to achieve a visibly illuminated skin tone, this treatment can be customized to meet individual needs. The gentle nature of the procedure means it can be safely performed on sensitive skin, ensuring proper contact and uniform application across treated areas. Additionally, Clear + Brilliant laser can be used to rejuvenate the skin in areas such as the neck, chest, and hands, expanding its versatility.
By actively treating the upper layers of the skin, Clear and Brilliant not only addresses current skin issues but also serves as a preventative treatment against future signs of aging. This makes it a valuable addition to other cosmetic procedures, such as dermal fillers or chemical peels, offering a comprehensive approach to achieving and maintaining healthy, younger-looking skin.

Preparing for your treatment
Prior to Arrival at Montrose4 weeks prior: Avoid any aggressive treatments such as ablative laser or chemical peels.
2 weeks prior: Avoid abrasive treatments including laser micro-needling, prolonged or recent UV exposure, aggressive facials, and irritant topical products (Acids, Retinol, Vitamin C, or mechanical scrubs).
Blood thinners: If you are taking blood thinners, including NSAIDs such as Aspirin or Ibuprofen, discuss with your doctor whether it is possible to discontinue their use throughout your treatment course.
Your practitioner will remove any makeup, discuss any concerns, review your medical history, and photograph the treatment area. The experience of the practitioner is essential for safe and effective Clear + Brilliant treatment, ensuring optimal results and minimizing risks.
The treatment involves gliding the Clear + Brilliant handpiece across the skin, delivering the laser energy. You may feel a mild tingling or warmth during the procedure.
The treatment takes approximately 20-30 minutes depending on area. During the treatment, you will feel some heat and a sensation like an elastic band snapping on your skin. Patients report feeling a hot tingling during the procedure, which is generally mild and temporary. After the treatment there will be erythema (local skin redness) and oedema (swelling) for a couple of hours. Some redness and swelling in the treatment area will occur which settles within the first few hours but may last longer.
Post Treatment Advice
- 48 hours: Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas.
- 24-48 hours: Keep the area dry and clean, wash with lukewarm water, and allow it to air dry (avoid using towels). Do not apply makeup to the treated area.
- 48 hours: Avoid saunas, hot baths, jacuzzis, exercise, or sweat-inducing activities. Avoid sunlight.
- 14 days: Do not apply Retinoids or Vitamin C
- Post-procedure: From 24 hours post-procedure, avoid direct sunlight on the treated area, use a hat where possible, and apply broad-spectrum physical SPF 50 with 5-star UVA protection.

Thank you
Overall a disappointing experience, sterile and cold enough environment made bearable only by the maximalist decor. No serenity as portrayed in marketing features ie. Lack of music As a director within a private healthcare setting, very poor customer experience and not one I will be recommending to our own clientele.
I was advised if unhappy with results in 2 weeks to come back for a top up but work restrictions meant I did not attend for 4 weeks but was told that this was chargeable: disappointing again with lack of appreciation or flexibility for working professionals. No follow up provided or courtesy call as is often given at alternative aesthetic clinics.
Dr. Noy has been incredible from start to finish. It is a joy to go to this beautiful clinic, and care is second to none.
