Intense Clarity Laser for Clear and Glowing Summer Skin

As the sun starts to shine brighter and the days stretch longer, summer brings a time for some outdoor fun and promises of adventure and relaxation. However, amidst the bliss of sun-kissed days, summer also brings a lot of challenges for our skin and its health. From sun damage to hyperpigmentation, and acne, summer often makes our skin bear the brunt of elemental damage.

Caught between the constant splashing around in the water and the intense heat, the last thing one wants is to pile on heavy makeup or spend hours covering up blemishes. This is why having clear, glowing skin becomes a must in summer. Intense Clarity Laser, also known as Q-switch laser, is a game-changer in the quest for flawless summer skin. With its cutting-edge technology, this treatment offers glowing, blemish-free skin, making it a must-have procedure for the sun-drenched days ahead.

What is an Intense Clarity Laser?

Intense Clarity Laser is a versatile procedure that can tackle uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, acne, and signs of aging, etc. It is a gentle, yet effective skin-resurfacing treatment that’s ideal for most skin types. There’s a widespread myth around the use of laser resurfacing treatment during summer, as it is believed to exacerbate the issue of hyperpigmentation due to harsh UV rays and constant sun exposure.

Intense Clarity Laser, however, can be used all year long. During the treatment, it creates tiny wounds due to the photoacoustic effect. This keeps the epidermis intact and undamaged, and therefore not overly exposed to the strong UV radiation during summer. Moreover, by simply using sunscreen with 30 SPF or higher, you can block the UV rays and avoid the side effects of increased melanin production.

How does Intense Clarity Laser work?

Intense Clarity Laser or Q-switch laser uses fractional laser technology to create a ton of microscopic thermal injuries to the skin. These micro injuries trigger your skin’s natural healing process, and consequently boost collagen and elastin production – the proteins responsible for keeping your skin smooth and plump.

This procedure can be used on the face, neck, and chest, and works effectively to smooth fine lines and rough texture, minimize the appearance of large pores, fade hyperpigmentation, and remove acne marks and dark spots. It is the ideal treatment for anyone noticing early signs of aging or just wanting to improve the tone and texture of their skin.

What should you expect during your Intense Clarity Laser session?

When you come in for your ICL session, your service provider will start by removing any makeup on your face, cleansing your face, and then applying a thick layer of numbing cream to your entire face. The numbing cream stays on for about 45 minutes and after that, your face is wiped clean with some alcohol.

During the procedure, the tip of the laser makes multiple passes over each area of your face, which feels a bit hot and tingly but isn’t unbearable because of the numbing cream. Once the treatment is done, a calming sheet mask is placed over the skin for 10 minutes to minimize the heat and soothe any redness. The whole procedure, including the numbing, lasering, and masking, takes about an hour and 15 minutes.
