Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ for Your Trans Journey
Is Radiance Laser & Medical Aesthetics trans affirming?
Yes. Radiance is an affirming clinic for transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and LGBTQ2S+ clients. Care is centred on names, pronouns, privacy, comfort, and practical treatment goals. The clinic's position is simple: we treat skin, not gender.
Can trans women book facial hair removal?
Yes. Facial hair removal planning can include laser, electrolysis conversations, or a combination depending on hair colour, skin type, density, and goals. Consultation helps sequence treatment safely and set expectations for timelines and maintenance.
Do hormone changes affect skin and hair treatment plans?
They can. Hormones may influence hair growth, skin sensitivity, acne, oiliness, dryness, and healing. Radiance discusses relevant medical context privately so treatment settings, timing, and aftercare can be planned with better expectations.
Do I need to explain my gender history to book?
No. You only need to share information that is relevant to safe treatment planning, such as medications, skin history, treatment area, and goals. Staff should not ask invasive questions that do not support care.
Is hair removal and skin care available in a trans-affirming clinic?
Yes. Radiance is explicitly welcoming to transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and LGBTQ2S+ clients. Names, pronouns, privacy, comfort, and treatment goals are handled with care. The consultation focuses on the skin, hair, treatment area, medical context, and desired outcome rather than assumptions about gender.
