Usually 4-6 treatments are needed but you will need to ask your cosmetic advisor

Pre and Post Care Instructions
Pre Clear + Brilliant Treatment
Stop any retinoids such as Tazorac, Retin-A, Renova, Differin, Veltin, Epiduo or Ziana for 3 days prior to treatment.
If you have a history of cold sores, or prior use of Accutane please DO let the nurse or physician know.
Post Clear + Brilliant Treatment Do’s and Don’ts
DO expect: mild redness lasting hours to a few days, which can be covered with tinted sunscreen (ask us
what we love!) followed by a “sandpaper” sensation for 5-7 days.
DO wash twice a day with the gentle cleanser provided in the post procedure pack
DO liberally apply the gentle moisturizer recommended at least twice a day.
DO NOT vigorously rub the skin and DO NOT pick or use exfoliants or a Clarisonic brush as this may cause scarring.
Sun protection is critical. You should NOT have sun exposure; wear a mineral sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30. This includes driving to work. Obviously, do not use a tanning salon ever!
AVOID laser treatments, peels, waxing, the use of depilatories, or microdermabrasion for 3 weeks.
DO wait 7 days before resuming the use of exfoliating agents, scrubs, or brushes such as a Clarisonic.
If you were instructed to take an antiviral medication, DO complete the prescribed course.
Maximizing Benefits of Clear + Brilliant Treatment
The Clear + Brilliant Treatment creates microchannels in the skin—DO maximize your treatment results with recommended immediate post-treatment skincare products
(Vitamin C Serum is key: CE FERULIC) that have been shown in published studies to boost collagen and improve radiance and pigment. This is key in maximizing your investment towards glowing skin.
For those with hyperpigmentation, DO RESTART Discoloration Defense or you’re prescribed
Bleaching Cream 2-3 days post treatment or when immediate redness subsides.
