Coming to the studio isn’t about the quick fix; get in, get out and get your treatment; it’s more about understanding every individual’s personal goals. It isn’t about what the world views as beauty but about understanding how one’s unique perception is affected by choosing to start injections.

Injections are science, but at the Naked Truth, we take that science and merge it with art. Case by case, individuals can achieve on the outside what they feel on the inside.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?
No, it is not permanent hair removal it is permanent hair reduction. The laser can only remove hair that has pigment in it, so fine blonde hair cannot be removed.
Am I A Candidate For Laser Hair Removal?
To determine whether or not you are a candidate your skin and hair need to be classified on the Fitzpatrick scale. Laser hair removal works best on individuals with pale skin and dark coarse hair however here at The Naked Truth Skin Care we have technology that is successful for permanent hair reduction in all skin types, so if you aren’t sure stop in for a free consultation and a spot test.
How Many Treatments Will It Take?
The amount of laser skincare treatments necessary varies from area and skin type but a fair average is between 6 and 8. Roughly only 15 % of hair is in its growth phase at any given time and in order for the laser to work it needs to attack the hair at the root when in this phase. To achieve the best skincare results, it is important to stick closely to the treatment time-line the skincare specialist provides you and maintains good pre-and post-treatment care.
Is It Painful?
To a degree yes, The Naked Truth Skin Care’s laser hair removal isn’t pain-free. We do have several methods in place to help manage the pain and the machines we use are some of the best in the industry for lower pain levels. Once you’ve had a few treatments at The Naked Truth Skin Care and hair growth has been reduced pain levels also diminish. We promise to make it as close to pain-free as possible.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Side effects are uncommon but may include, hyper or hypo-pigmentation, mild to moderate burning, permanent skin discoloration, temporary redness and or swelling. Itching in the treated area, hives or rashes are typically an allergic reaction. This doesn’t mean you have to stop having treatments with The Naked Truth Skin Care, it will clear up in a day or so and if it doesn’t clear up right away usually an antihistamine is all that is needed. The best way to minimize the risk of any of the aforementioned side effects is to avoid sun exposure of any kind at least a week before treatment. Avoid tanning for at least two weeks prior. Avoid sunless tanning products at least a week before as well.

What Should I Do Pre-Treatment?
Unfortunately, in order to be a good candidate for laser hair reduction, there are some things to do, and some things to avoid prior to treatment at The Naked Truth Skin Care. Avoid tanning for 2 to 4 weeks prior if possible. However, if you are tanning still please notify us when you book as we do have lasers that work on tanned skin. Avoid anti-inflammatory medications and antibiotics if possible 5 days prior to treatment.
If you are on a regular medication prescribed by a doctor be sure to consult the doctor and/or the laser specialist to see if the medication will be a problem for laser treatment. If getting treatment in the underarms avoid deodorant for 24 hours prior to treatment at The Naked Truth Skin Care. Make sure to cleanly shave the area the day before treatment. Be sure to keep your medical history up to date with your specialist/technician. Without knowing the truth, you put yourself in jeopardy and open yourself to the risk of burns. Remember here at The Naked Truth Skin Care we bring you back to the bare basics by keeping it honest.
What Should I Do Post Treatment?
Post-treatment care at The Naked Truth Skin Care is necessary to achieve the desired results otherwise you risk poor results and an unhappy disposition after having spent money. We want to make sure you are happy with the results so the best we can do is provide quality machines and proper care instructions.
Be sure to avoid the sun between sessions if possible and if you must be in the sun use an SPF 30 or higher, we prefer you to use higher. Of course, if you’ve been treated with the Diode it is okay to be in the sun although for best skin protection we still suggest using at least an SPF 30. Avoid any other laser treatments on the area for at least 2 weeks. Do not wax or tweeze or do electrolysis between sessions, shaving if necessary is okay as it does not disturb the hair root. Make sure to book your next treatment at The Naked Truth Skin Care and to follow the schedule as best as possible and you will be baby-smooth in less time. Exfoliate treated areas to avoid the possibility of ingrown hairs.
