Your care and treatment is provided by experienced and skilled laser nurse practitioners.
At your consultation, one of our laser nurse practitioners will discuss the treatment you have requested and assess your suitability.
If it is appropriate to proceed, all aspects of the treatment will be discussed in further detail and you will be given an opportunity to ask any questions .
During your consultation we will ask you the following questions:
- Medical history
- Medications current and past
- Skin problems past and present
- Ethnic origin to evaluate your skin type prior to treatment
- General health and wellbeing
- Current skin routine.
We will not be able to carry out laser treatment in the following circumstances (and you may lose any deposit paid)
- If you are tanned (this is a skin tone darker than your natural skin colour due to sun exposure). You must allow any tan to fade back to your natural skin colour before your appointment.
- Fake tan has been used within 3 weeks. This can be spray tan or moisturising gradual tan. Please allow this to wear off completely before you attend for a consultation.
- Botox or fillers in the treatment area within 2 weeks.
- Cold sore within a month.
