Get glowing with minimum downtime!
Clear + Brilliant is a gentle laser that refreshes the skin from inside out. The laser energy creates millions of microscopic treatment zones in your skin, replacing damaged skin with healthy, younger looking tissue.
What to expect during treatment:
Being a laser virgin, I was initially worried about the potential pain and after-effects of the treatment. Dr Tsu assured me that the numbing cream will minimise any pain. After gently removing my make-up, the nurse applied a thick layer of numbing cream and left it on for 35 minutes. With the cream on, I almost dozed off in the comfy chair. After removing the numbing cream, Dr Tsu started the treatment by first showing me the sleek Clear + Brilliant machine. He set it to medium strength and ran the laser handpiece on my chin, followed by my cheeks, nose and forehead.
To my surprise and relief, there was no pain at all and I almost fell asleep again despite the buzzing noise of the machine! After he completed my whole face, he repeated the same routine again. This time round, there was a slight stinging sensation. The treatment took approximately 30 minutes as Dr Tsu was very thorough and ensured that all areas of my face was treated. The nurse then applied a cooling mask, which was a welcome treat after the stinging sensation. She left it on for 15 minutes and after peeling it off, she applied moisturiser and sunblock for me. Dr Tsu showed me my face with a mirror before I left and to my relief, I only looked sunburnt.
The next day, the stinging sensation was gone and my face felt like sandpaper. I still looked sunburnt although my sister commented that I looked like I got a healthy tan. My skin is supposed to start peeling on the third day and I should have clearer, smoother baby skin after a week. Looking forward to that!
