Everyone has a different tolerance for pain, but Clarity is generally considered to be pretty tolerable. With both vascular and laser hair removal treatments, certain areas are known to be more sensitive than others. Facial laser procedures may be briefly uncomfortable for some people, while others experience similar reactions to an incoming sneeze – eye watering, tingling sensations. Either way, these sensations are very short lived and disappear almost instantly. Laser hair removal with Clarity feels like a rubber band popping against the skin and is also very brief and completely tolerable for almost everyone – without any numbing at all.

Generally, side effects from Clarity laser treatment are minimal. You may experience some redness or swelling of the treatment area in the first couple of hours post-treatment. However, these are both very tolerable and will resolve on their own. When treating vascular skin concerns, bruising is possible. This is due to specific treatment settings which are often needed in order to get the best results for you.

You should have no trouble returning to your daily routine immediately after treatment. Due to the potential for bruising after vascular treatments (e.g.- red veins around the nose), it’s advised that you avoid scheduling this treatment right before any social events.
