What Does ClearLift Treatment Do?

It’s amazing what laser treatments like ClearLift™can do. If you’re looking for a quick, convenient way to give your face a little flex (especially around the holidays), our team at the Virginia Center for Plastic Surgery can help. Dr. Desman has used ClearLift to help hundreds of patients in Alexandria — busy people just like you. ClearLift offers you impeccable results without any incisions (it’s often referred to as the “lunchtime facelift” for that reason). 

Simplified Skin Science

ClearLift is a fast skin treatment that’s non-invasive. Non-invasive procedures are those that don’t use incisions. You heard right! For ClearLift, Dr. Desman uses a fractional Q-switched Nd: YAG laser to target signs of aging beneath your skin’s surface. It’s an advanced laser technology that motivates collagen production. What’s in it for you? How does smoother, firmer skin sound? Plus, laser treatment won’t harm the outer layer of your skin. 

Call In The Collagen

At Virginia Center for Plastic Surgery, ClearLift treatment sends targeted laser energy deep into your skin. The energy jumpstarts your body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives your skin structure and firmness. By triggering this natural process, ClearLift helps alleviate fine lines, sun damage, and mild scars. The best part? Your results develop over time. Your skin continues to improve long after each session. 

Great For All Skin Types

We mentioned above that Clearlift is non-invasive. Another word you might hear our Alexandria team use is “non-ablative.” It means that ClearLift won’t hurt the top layer of your skin like some treatments can. This makes it an excellent option for different kinds of skin types, including darker tones. Because the laser energy targets deeper layers, ClearLift can create noticeable improvements without causing irritation or redness. 

Why ClearLift is a Clear Winner

ClearLift delivers impressive results without the hassle of lengthy treatments or downtime. This versatile laser treatment works great if you’re looking to refresh your skin without disrupting your routine.

The Fast And The Fabulous

Your ClearLift sessions with Dr. Desman typically last only 20-30 minutes. It’s a breath of fresh air if you have a busy schedule. You can fit this “lunchtime facelift” into your day without rearranging your plans. Because it’s non-invasive (no incisions, remember?), taking time off or limiting your activities afterward is unnecessary.

A Soft Touch With Stunning Results

Patients who’ve gotten ClearLift treatments from Dr. Desman say it’s gentle. They describe a warming sensation that feels like a spa experience. There’s no need for numbing creams or anesthesia. The treatment doesn’t disrupt the surface of your skin. We know you have a life to get back to, which brings us to another great benefit. 

No Downtime Required

With ClearLift, you can go right back to your day after treatment—no note from Dr. Desman is necessary. The laser energy gets into your skin to deal with the root of the problem. Your skin’s outer layer stays untouched and unaffected. 

Clearlift Can Tackle It All

ClearLift can tackle different skin concerns in one session. It handles fine lines, sun damage, and uneven tones. The laser’s ability to penetrate deeply without affecting the surface makes it versatile enough for the face, neck, and hands.

The Science Behind ClearLift

Our Virginia Center for Plastic Surgery team touched on the science of ClearLift a little. But let’s go a bit deeper into its mechanics, shall we? 

Deep Laser Energy for Targeted Collagen Boost

ClearLift works with fractional Q-switched Nd: YAG laser technology. The energy kicks protein synthesis into gear. Your body will begin producing collagen and elastin — two essential proteins for bold, youthful skin. By working below the surface, ClearLift promotes natural rejuvenation, resulting in a smoother, tighter appearance. 

Utmost Care For The Outermost Layer

ClearLift from Dr. Desman in Alexandria takes it easy on the top layer of your skin. Treatments that require surgery can cause some irritation in your outer layers. But not ClearLift. No redness, no peeling. By targeting only deeper layers, ClearLift offers a safe and comfortable option for nearly all skin types. 

Gradual Improvement for Natural-Looking Results

ClearLift’s process gets collagen going over time. That way, your skin can rebuild its structure naturally. This gradual improvement means that results develop subtly, which helps you avoid the artificial look of more intensive treatments. Skin continues to smooth out as collagen builds up. You’ll get a refreshed, natural-looking transformation that’s easy to maintain.

What to Expect During Your ClearLift Session at VCPS

A ClearLift session at Virginia Center for Plastic Surgery is designed to be easy, comfortable, and stress-free. Dr. Desman and our team provide a welcoming environment to make your experience fun and enjoyable from start to finish.

Before Your Treatment

Before your session begins, our team will review your skin concerns and goals to see if ClearLift is your best option. There’s no need for numbing or pre-treatment prep—ClearLift is gentle enough to begin right away. The doctor will answer any questions and guide you through what to expect so you feel relaxed and ready.

During the Session

During treatment, you’ll notice a warm sensation as the laser moves over your skin. The ClearLift laser works below the surface. Many patients compare the sensation to a light massage. 

After Your ClearLift Session

After your ClearLift session, you can jump right back into your day. Go back home, head into the office, wherever you need to go. With no irritation, you’ll show up relaxed. You’ll look better and feel better. Over the following weeks, your skin will improve as your treatment’s effects unfold naturally.
