Visit Team PageThe first step toward your ClearSilk or ClearV treatment is a consultation at our Fort Wayne, IN, practice. During this meeting, you can discuss your aesthetic concerns and medical history, after which a personalized treatment plan can be created for you.
To prepare for your treatment, you should avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning at least one to two weeks prior to treatment. On the day of treatment, your skin should be clean and free of lotions, makeup, and sunscreen.
Both ClearSilk and ClearV treatments are non-invasive laser treatments, though they are designed with different concerns in mind. While ClearSilk focuses on gentle skin rejuvenation, ClearV targets vascular concerns such as visible vessels.
During your ClearSilk or ClearV treatment, your provider will pass the laser over the skin using a handheld device. For the ClearSilk treatment, patients may experience a gentle warming sensation as the laser stimulates collagen production. Those undergoing the ClearV treatment may experience a warming or snapping sensation, as the goal is to gently eliminate vascular structures.
The length of your treatment session may vary depending on the size of the treated area.
Following your ClearSilk or ClearV treatment, you may experience temporary skin redness or swelling. However, these effects should be temporary and resolve with time. There is no downtime required, so you can return to your regular activities. We will provide you with specific aftercare instructions to ensure proper skin healing and optimal results. These may include avoiding hot showers and vigorous exercise after treatment, as well as using sunscreen daily to prevent pigmentation changes.
Both ClearSilk and ClearV by Sciton are considered safe, non-invasive laser treatments with minimal risks. However, as with any laser procedure, there are potential side effects and risks that patients should be aware of. Common and mild side effects may include redness or flushing, skin sensitivity, peeling, bruising, or temporary darkening of veins. Less common risks may include hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, blistering or burns, and, very rarely, scarring. Our team takes all required precautions to reduce these risks and achieve the results you desire.
ClearSilk patients can enjoy more evenly toned, radiant skin after their first session, while collagen production will continue to improve over time. ClearV patients may notice that some treated veins will shrink or darken immediately, while others may take several weeks to fade.
Multiple treatment sessions may be required to achieve optimal results.
