At Franklin Skin and Laser in Franklin, TN, we offer the popular and highly effective Clear + Brilliant® laser treatment to perfect the skin, combat and prevent the signs of aging, and treat stubborn skin concerns.
This laser treatment can significantly improve the appearance and health of the skin without significant downtime or the use of surgical or invasive techniques.
Clear + Brilliant®
Clear + Brilliant® is a treatment that uses advanced laser technology to improve the skin. During the treatment, the laser device creates microchannels in the skin. This initiates a healing response in the body, enacting a process that removes damaged cells and replaces them with healthier and younger cells, which results in younger-looking skin.
The treatment is simple, comfortable, and doesn’t require significant downtime. You’ll see noticeable results after one treatment, and the best results will be visible after completing the recommended number of treatments.
What It Treats
This laser treatment can combat some of the most common signs of aging and promote optimal skin health. A single treatment will improve the skin’s overall appearance, promote a vibrant glow, and prevent accelerated aging. It can help shrink the pores, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, lines, and facial folds, and make the skin look and feel softer and smoother.
The Treatment Process
The Clear + Brilliant® treatment process begins with applying a topical numbing cream. This numbing cream will ensure that you maintain comfort throughout the process.
Once your skin is numb, we will use the handpiece to target your areas of concern. The device is equipped with Intelligent Optical Tracking® technology, which allows us to ensure we’ve adequately targeted every area and delivered the most uniform treatment possible. Treatments take around 15 to 20 minutes.
Customizing Your Treatment
At Franklin Skin and Laser, we don’t just perform this laser treatment and send you on your way. Instead, we follow our proprietary post-treatment protocol to enhance your treatment results and target your unique skin concerns. After completing the laser treatment, we apply a topical prescription-strength vitamin C serum to the skin.
This serum provides antioxidant protection and brightens the skin. We also offer a prescription brightening acid that specifically targets melanocytes, making it an excellent option for clients with stubborn melasma. Post-treatment, we also apply a gel serum containing growth factors and peptides and follow this final step with the application of thermal spring water to cool and hydrate the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Prepare for My Treatment?
Is There Downtime?
You won’t have to plan around social downtime after your Clear + Brilliant® treatment. Some clients may experience redness, peeling, and a warming sensation immediately following the treatment. Peeling is a natural process that indicates cellular turnover and tissue regeneration. We will give you instructions about which products to use to help your skin heal, take advantage of its significantly increased absorption rate, and protect the newly revealed layer from the elements.
When Will I See the Results?
You can expect the most noticeable results within two weeks of your initial treatment. You’ll see a gradual improvement in your skin after your first treatment and will notice that your skin not only feels smoother but appears brighter, and the signs of aging will begin to fade.
How Long Will My Results Last?
After you undergo the recommended number of treatments, you can expect your results to last for several months. Regular treatments can help you extend results and maintain the healthiest and youngest-looking skin.
Can I Extend My Results?
While regular treatments are the best way to promote healthy and younger-looking skin long-term, there are ways to promote and extend your results between treatments. Protecting your skin from sun exposure by wearing quality sunscreen daily will prevent sun damage and accelerated aging. Using professional-grade skincare products, eating a healthy diet, drinking enough water, and exercising regularly will all improve skin health and enhance your treatment results.
How Often Should I Schedule Treatments?
We recommend that clients schedule Clear + Brilliant® treatments every four to six weeks. This treatment schedule provides your skin with the necessary healing time and ensures its adequately prepared for another treatment.
Can It Be Combined With Other Treatments?
The Clear + Brilliant® laser treatment pairs well with other skincare treatments, including dermaplaning, DiamondGlow® facials, Crystal Clear facials, and chemical peels. We recommend that clients schedule this laser treatment approximately two weeks before or after these treatments for the best results. Patients who require a deeper laser treatment can pair the treatment with neuromodulators like BOTOX® and Xeomin® and other anti-aging treatments like microneedling or our microinfusion treatment.
Who Is It Right For?
The Clear + Brilliant® treatment can help clients with all different skin types and tones achieve healthier and younger-looking skin while also fighting against the early signs of aging. Whether your lifestyle, diet, excess sun, exposure, or other conditions have negatively impacted your skin, we can design a treatment plan with this laser to promote a healthier complexion. This treatment is an investment in your current and future skin, and it is both a prescriptive and preventative treatment that can address your skin concerns while preventing future imperfections. An initial consultation is the best way to determine whether this treatment is the right choice for you.
