Smooth + Brilliant FAQs
How is this different from Clear + Brilliant alone?
Clear + Brilliant focuses on fractional laser renewal. The stack adds microneedling for deeper collagen and texture work in the same visit.
Can I do this before an event?
Plan buffer time. Redness, dryness, roughness, and peeling can occur, and your provider can advise timing based on your skin and event date.
Will I need more than one session?
Many texture, pigment, and collagen goals benefit from a series or maintenance plan. Your provider can recommend timing after assessing your skin.
