ClariTone
Calming the Complexion
ClariTone is a specialized treatment designed to address the visible signs of vascular damage and persistent facial redness.
This technology focuses on the specific colors associated with broken capillaries and sun-damaged skin. By delivering precise energy to these areas, we can effectively clear imperfections that topical creams often fail to reach. Our goal is to provide you with a balanced skin tone that looks naturally healthy and rejuvenated.
Targeted Photo-Thermal Therapy
The system utilizes broad-spectrum light that is specifically attracted to the red and brown tones in the skin. When the light hits these targets, it converts into heat energy that causes the unwanted vessels or pigment to collapse. Once neutralized, these damaged cells are gradually absorbed by the body.
While the treatment focuses on clearing the surface, the energy also warms the surrounding tissue to encourage cell turnover. This helps to thicken the skin over time, making it less prone to future redness or sensitivity. The built-in cooling mechanism ensures the surface remains comfortable while the light works deep.
Ideal Candidates for ClariTone
This treatment is highly effective for patients dealing with rosacea or those who have visible "spider veins" on the face. It is also an excellent choice for individuals with chronic sun damage appearing as red and brown mottled patches. Most people with lighter skin tones see the best results.
If you find yourself constantly using heavy concealer to hide redness, this procedure offers a more permanent solution. It is also beneficial for those who want to improve the overall health and thickness of their skin. During your consultation, we will determine if this specific light therapy meets your needs.

Post-ClariTone Maintenance
Because ClariTone targets pigment and vessels, your skin may feel slightly warm after treatment. Following these guidelines will help ensure the best possible clearing results.
- Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every single day to protect the treated areas from future UV-induced vascular damage or pigment.
- Use a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer to keep the skin barrier healthy and help the body process the treated vascular and pigmented lesions.
- Apply a cool compress to the treated area for ten minutes if you experience any mild swelling or a warm, sunburnt sensation.
- Avoid very hot showers, steam rooms, or saunas for forty-eight hours to prevent aggravating the vascular system and causing extra skin flushing.
- Do not pick or scratch at any treated spots that may darken or crust over, as they will naturally flake off within days.
- Avoid aggressive exercise for twenty-four hours to keep your blood pressure stable and allow the treated vessels to remain closed and heal.
