Skin Concerns? We're Here To Help
Using innovative fractional laser technology, we can effectively address various skin concerns:
Advanced Handpiece Technology
We feature both the original Clear + Brilliant handpiece that works deep into the dermal structure, stimulating fibroblastic function to increase hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastic fiber production, and Clear + Brilliant Permea, the newest, most advanced handpiece that works on a more superficial level to aid in absorbing topical serums into the skin while addressing pigmentation concerns.
Exclusive Clear + Brilliant Touch System
Cosmetic Laser Dermatology is one of the only practices in San Diego – and across the country – to offer Clear + Brilliant Touch, which seamlessly switches between both handpieces for an efficient, completely customized treatment plan. Treat multiple concerns in a single 30-45 minute treatment session for superior results.
Safe for All Skin Types
Unlike other aesthetic and skin resurfacing treatments, Clear + Brilliant has minimal risk of side effects and no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, making it one of the safest choices for all skin tones, including darker complexions. Most patients can return to work or social activities immediately following treatment, and Clear + Brilliant treatments are gentle enough to be performed year-round, even during the summer months.
Gentle Yet Effective Approach
Clear + Brilliant is so gentle and non-invasive that it’s the perfect option for those looking to address skin concerns without resorting to more aggressive treatments. Treatment sessions take only 30-45 minutes and leave you with a revitalized, radiant glow with minimal downtime.
Comprehensive Skin Enhancement
Combined with professional skincare products, Clear + Brilliant treatments complement your existing skincare program and routine. The treatment is designed for people who are mostly satisfied with their skin’s general appearance and looking for an advanced treatment to boost the effectiveness of their current routine.
FAQ

Due to its gentle, non-invasive nature, Clear + Brilliant is ideal for people of all skin types looking for a mild procedure that can effectively reduce fine lines and wrinkles while maintaining their skin’s healthy, youthful appearance. It’s perfect for those wanting to enhance their existing skincare routine.
We apply topical numbing cream 30-60 minutes before the procedure and protect your eyes during treatment. Multiple passes are made over the treatment area while cold air is applied directly to the skin’s surface to reduce heat sensation and protect your skin. Treatment takes 30-45 minutes.
There is minimal downtime. You may feel a sensation of heat/sunburn that lasts a few minutes, with possible mild redness and swelling for a few hours. Your skin will feel slightly rough to the touch for a few days, and you may develop temporary darkening of brown spots that can be covered with makeup.
You can wear makeup and shower on the day of treatment. Gentle cleansing with fingertips is fine, but avoid washcloths or devices for 3-5 days. Do not rub, pick, or wipe the treatment area. Apply mineral-based sunscreen with zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide daily.
Benefits include non-surgical and non-invasive treatment, no scarring or significant downtime, little to no side effects, effectiveness on all skin tones, visible reduction in pores and fine lines, and complementing your existing skincare routine. It’s milder than other resurfacing procedures and chemical peels.
