This procedure offers a safe and effective solution for individuals seeking a rejuvenated and more youthful complexion without downtime and discomfort.

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Minor acne scars
  • Sun damage
  • Enlarged pores
  • Skin texture irregularities
  • Age spots and pigmentation issues

How Does ClearSilk Work?

ClearSilk operates through non-ablative fractional laser technology. It emits a controlled beam of light that penetrates the skin, targeting specific chromophores within the tissue. This process stimulates collagen production, a crucial protein responsible for skin elasticity and firmness.

By encouraging collagen synthesis, ClearSilk smooths fine lines and wrinkles while improving overall skin texture and tone. Additionally, the fractional nature of the laser means it treats only a fraction of the skin’s surface area at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact.

Preparation:

  • Cleanse your face thoroughly before the appointment.

Procedure

During the ClearSilk treatment, you’ll relax comfortably as your practitioner begins by cleansing your skin. Protective eyewear will be provided to shield your eyes from the light. The practitioner will pass the ClearSilk laser over the targeted areas of your face, emitting controlled pulses of light. You may feel a warm sensation or mild tingling during the procedure, but it’s generally well-tolerated. The treatment takes 20-30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.

Downtime

Following ClearSilk treatment, you may experience mild redness or swelling in the treated areas, akin to a sunburn, which usually resolves within a few hours to a day. Some individuals might notice slight peeling or flaking of the skin in the days following the procedure, indicating the skin’s natural renewal process. Generally, there’s minimal downtime associated with ClearSilk, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately afterward.

Recovery Guidelines

  • Apply a soothing moisturizer to hydrate your skin post-treatment.
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure for at least a week and use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.
  • Gently cleanse your face with a mild cleanser to maintain skin health.
  • Refrain from using harsh skincare products or exfoliants for a few days to prevent irritation.
  • Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing from within.
  • Contact your practitioner if you experience any unusual or severe side effects.

Results

You may begin to notice improvements in your skin’s appearance shortly after your ClearSilk treatment, with optimal results typically becoming more apparent over the following days as your skin rejuvenates. While individual experiences may vary, results from ClearSilk can last several months to a year. To maintain the benefits, it’s advisable to undergo periodic ClearSilk sessions as recommended by your practitioner and to follow a consistent skincare routine.
