Questions before
you begin.

No. New clients can request a complimentary consultation. We begin by discussing your concerns, skin history, routine, sensitivities, medications and goals, then explain suitable options and realistic next steps.

Your provider reviews your current routine and relevant history, examines the areas you are concerned about and discusses what may be contributing to the issue. You receive a prioritized plan that may include home care, in-clinic treatment or medical referral when appropriate.

No. A consultation is a planning visit and there is no obligation to proceed. Some simple treatments may be possible on the same day when time and suitability allow; procedures requiring preparation, testing or detailed consent are booked separately.

Bring your current skincare products or photos of their labels, a list of medications and supplements, known allergies and details of recent aesthetic procedures. Photos showing how the concern changes over time can also be useful.

The team typically calls or emails within two business days. Appointment requests are not confirmed until you receive that follow-up from Radiance.

A facial may reduce congestion or calm visible inflammation, but hormonal and cystic acne usually require ongoing management. Persistent, painful, sudden or scarring acne may also need assessment by a family physician or dermatologist.

Acne is generally assessed over weeks rather than days. Many plans are reviewed after about 8–12 weeks, with clinic visits often spaced several weeks apart. Timing depends on acne type, tolerance, hormones, home-care consistency and whether medical treatment is also needed.

Usually, yes. Microneedling is generally postponed over active inflamed or infected acne. Once breakouts are stable, your provider can assess scar type and whether microneedling or a different combination approach is appropriate.

Melasma can often be improved but commonly recurs because light, heat, hormones and inflammation can reactivate pigment. Daily sun protection, gentle skin care and maintenance are central to long-term management.

Irritation and excess heat can trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, particularly in deeper skin tones. Conservative treatment selection, skin preparation, careful aftercare and consistent sunscreen help reduce this risk.

Radiance offers consultation and barrier-focused support for sensitive or eczema-prone skin. Active, severe, infected or undiagnosed rashes may need medical assessment before cosmetic treatment.

A reasonable average is about 2–5 days of redness, warmth, tightness, mild swelling or light flaking. Deeper or radiofrequency-assisted treatments may involve longer recovery. Your provider will give a procedure-specific estimate before treatment.

A common starting course is approximately 3–6 sessions spaced around 4–6 weeks apart, followed by reassessment. Scar depth and type matter, and no procedure can completely erase scarring.

Initial redness settles first. Collagen-related improvements develop gradually over several weeks to months, so photographs taken under consistent lighting are more useful than judging the skin day to day.

Many non-invasive tightening treatments have little to no downtime. Temporary warmth, redness, tenderness or swelling may last several hours and occasionally 1–3 days. Recovery varies by device and intensity.

No. Energy-based tightening can produce subtle to moderate improvement in skin quality and firmness, but it cannot reproduce surgical lifting. Results develop gradually as collagen remodels.

The accurate expectation is long-term or permanent hair reduction, not guaranteed complete removal. Some hair can regrow, and hormonal changes such as PCOS may make maintenance treatments more likely.

Laser responds best to follicles in an active growth phase, but not all hairs are in that phase at once. A typical initial course is around 6–10 sessions, often spaced 4–8 weeks apart depending on the area and growth pattern.

Many skin tones can be treated when the device, wavelength and settings are appropriate. A consultation, medical-history review and sometimes a test spot help determine suitability. Tanned or sunburned skin may require postponement.

Avoid tanning and self-tanner. Do not wax, thread or tweeze the area for the period specified by the clinic because the follicle needs to remain present. Shaving is generally allowed and is usually requested shortly before treatment.

Laser relies on pigment in the hair, so hair with very little pigment tends to respond poorly. Your provider can assess the hair and explain whether treatment is likely to be worthwhile.

Most clients return to normal activity immediately. Mild warmth, redness or follicular bumps often settle within a few hours to 1–2 days. Prolonged pain, blistering or pigment change should be reported promptly.

Suitability varies by procedure. Pregnancy, certain medications, recent isotretinoin, active infection, sunburn, open wounds, impaired healing, implanted devices or a history of abnormal scarring can affect treatment choices. Disclose your complete history during consultation.

No. Aesthetic consultation does not replace medical diagnosis. Suspicious or changing lesions, severe disease, sudden symptoms or concerns outside aesthetic scope should be assessed by a physician or dermatologist.

Cost depends on the concern, treatment area, technology, number of sessions and home-care needs. Radiance provides a personalized recommendation and pricing before treatment so you can decide without assuming every suggested step must happen at once.
