Frequently asked questions.

About Clarity
Active acne, and what acne leaves behind. We use AviClear® for active inflammatory acne, and laser resurfacing for post-acne marks, discoloration, and texture — supported by clinical extractions and guided at-home care.
Houston and Dallas.
No — you can book a starting visit directly.
AviClear®
An FDA-cleared laser that treats acne with light instead of medication, using a 1726 nm wavelength to act on the oil glands behind breakouts. It’s designed to work across all skin tones.
Your starting visit is $89; session and series pricing is on our pricing page, and your provider confirms your plan before anything begins.
It treats acne with light rather than oral or topical medication, which can suit patients who’d prefer to avoid prescriptions or aren’t candidates for them. Your consultation determines whether it fits your skin and history.
It’s FDA-cleared for inflammatory acne. Whether it’s right for you depends on your acne type, history, and skin — which your consultation determines.
Most patients describe a warm or snapping sensation, eased by surface cooling, with little to no downtime afterward.
AviClear® works gradually over a series of sessions, and improvement often continues for months after your last one. Your provider sets a realistic timeline at your visit.
It may. AviClear® acts on the oil gland — where hormonal and adult acne produce excess oil — without altering your hormones. Your consultation determines fit.
Cystic and severe acne often need more than a laser — sometimes systemic treatment from a dermatologist. We’ll assess carefully and, if your acne is beyond what we should treat with our tools, help you get to the right care.
Laser resurfacing
Post-acne marks (PIH), discoloration, uneven tone, and texture — including the appearance of acne scars. It’s for after active breakouts are under control, not for active acne.
It softens and smooths their appearance rather than erasing them. Shallower scars improve more than deep ones, and your provider will set realistic expectations for your skin.
More than AviClear® — typically a few days of redness and light peeling per session, depending on the approach. We set clear expectations before you book.
Yes, all Fitzpatrick types. Darker skin tones require specific protocols to fade pigment safely — another reason resurfacing should be clinician-guided, not guessed at.
Extractions & at-home care
The safe, sanitary, clinician-performed removal of clogged pores (blackheads and whiteheads) — not aggressive squeezing, and never on inflamed or cystic lesions. Usually part of a plan rather than a standalone treatment.
Your skin spends far more time at home than with us. A simple, consistent routine protects your progress between visits.
Pricing & payment
Because "clear pricing" is half our name. You shouldn’t have to book a sales consult to learn what something costs.
A consultation, skin and history review, baseline photos, and a personalized recommendation with a clear price — reviewed with you before any treatment. No obligation to book treatment.
Possibly, depending on your plan and whether treatment is medically appropriate. Check with your plan administrator; we can provide an itemized receipt.
Visits & booking
Submit a request online or contact your nearest location, and our team will help you schedule.
Treatment visits are short and focused — often well under an hour. Your starting visit includes time to talk through your plan.
Each treatment has its own prep (notably, pausing certain skincare actives beforehand). Follow the guidance for your specific treatment, and always follow your provider’s instructions.
Results & safety
No — individual results vary, and no responsible clinic can promise a specific outcome. Your provider will give you a realistic picture for your skin at your visit.
We’ll tell you. If something won’t help — or if your needs are better served elsewhere — we’d rather say so and point you in the right direction than sell you a plan that won’t deliver.
Ask us at your visit, or contact your nearest location — we’d rather over-explain than leave you guessing.
