What Is Clear + Brilliant® Touch?
Clear + Brilliant® Touch is a fractional laser resurfacing system designed to prevent and address visible signs of aging. The system was developed by Solta Medical®, the maker of Fraxel® Dual Laser Resurfacing. During a Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatment, the laser targets the outer skin layers to effectively minimize the appearance of fine lines and pores, while creating a more even skin tone and texture.
The advanced Clear + Brilliant® Touch system offers two wavelengths, allowing providers to switch between the Original 1440nm and Perméa® 1927nm handpieces. The Original mode is effective for enhancing skin tone, texture, and pore size, while the Perméa® mode is ideal for addressing pigmentation and texture issues. This innovative approach enables us to deliver a more comprehensive and customized treatment for patients.
The non-invasive procedure can be performed in a quick office visit with little to no downtime. The Polacek Center for Plastic Surgery is the first and only practice in Rhode Island to offer the Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatment.

What Does Clear + Brilliant® Touch Laser Treatment Involve?
A typical Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatment session lasts about an hour in total. The target area will first be numbed with a topical cream to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the duration of your appointment. The laser handpiece is then guided across the area for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. During this time, millions of microscopic treatment zones are created—a process that stimulates the body to replace the damaged skin with healthier tissue. For optimal treatment results, the Clear + Brilliant® Touch technology utilizes Intelligent Optical Tracking™, a patented system that ensures an even treatment across the target area.
What Can I Expect in My Clear + Brilliant® Touch Results?
Results from Clear + Brilliant® Touch will vary for each patient. Over the next week or two, your skin should continue to improve, feeling softer and looking brighter and more even. The rejuvenating results from Clear + Brilliant® Touch can typically last for several months, depending on your age, skin condition, and skin care regimen.
How Many Clear + Brilliant® Touch Treatments Will I Need?
Most patients are recommended to undergo a series of Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatments to get the best possible results. Many men and women can benefit from 4-6 sessions, while others regularly come in for a Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatment to maintain their youthful appearance. To further enhance your overall facial appearance, you may be interested in complementary procedures, such as dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic.
How Much Does Clear + Brilliant® Touch Cost?
The average cost of a Clear + Brilliant® Touch treatment is $500. Financing options are available if you would like to divide your treatment cost into smaller, monthly payments through CareCredit®. Our practice recommends 3 treatments 3-6 weeks apart for the best results.
