In short, no, they are different. Clarity II differs from ablative resurfacing lasers, which remove layers of skin and typically require more recovery. We use Clarity II to target excess pigment and visible vessels without creating that same level of surface injury, giving patients a gentle approach to laser skin resurfacing in Kansas City.

Laser Treatment for Pigment, Redness, and Uneven Tone
We use Clarity II because pigment and redness do not respond to the same type of laser energy. Its dual wavelengths let your provider address concerns differently.
What It Treats:
- Sun spots and hyperpigmentation
- Broken capillaries
- Spider veins
- Angiomas
How We Guide Your Care
Setting the Course at Your Consultation
We look closely at the spots, redness, or visible vessels you want treated and ask how your skin typically behaves. Recent sun exposure, skincare products, sensitivity, and past treatments also help us decide if Clarity II is a good fit.
Your Laser Treatment
We prepare your skin and provide protective eyewear before treating the selected area with Clarity II. Your provider works methodically across the skin, focusing treatment on the areas where it can make the greatest improvement.
Ongoing Support
Pigment can temporarily darken after treatment, and vascular redness may fade gradually. At your next visit, we assess what improved and what concerns remain before deciding what your skin needs.
