You will be asked to attend a consultation with one of our nurse prescribers prior to treatment, during which they will carry out a medical history check, assess the area(s) of concern and agree upon a treatment plan to suit your needs. At your treatment appointment, your practitioner will take you through the consent documents and take some pre-treatment photographs. The treatment area will be cleaned ready for treatment. You will then be given aftercare advice, which will also be emailed to you.

A patch test is not required but a consultation prior to treatment is required to assess suitability and discuss your treatment plan.

Most patients do not find treatments painful. Individual treatments will be discussed at consultation.

Side effects and downtime vary depending on treatment used. Some treatments carry possible localised redness, tenderness, swelling, and bruising to the treatment site. Any bruising is usually minimal, redness and swelling usually resolving within a few hours after treatment.

Treatment will be carried out by one of our nurse prescribers.

Some treatments require patients to avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin and ibuprofen for at least 24 hours prior to treatment (unless instructed by your GP). Please avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior and where possible, attend without makeup.

Cost varies depending on treatment required. Price will be discussed at consultation.
