Considering cosmetic scalp care
Start with the specific concern, rather than a general promise of scalp rejuvenation. Symptoms may need healthcare assessment before cosmetic care.
What treatment planning should establish.
These four points support treatment planning. The detailed guide below covers this treatment.

Discuss your concern

Oiliness, flakes, itch, breakage and thinning are different concerns. One scalp service cannot be assumed to address all of them.
Dr Sknn is an aesthetics and cosmetics clinic. This guide does not establish a specialist medical scalp service or promise treatment of psoriasis, eczema, infection or every cause of hair loss.
Preparing for a consultation
Discuss the concern before considering an intervention.
01 · Before Describe the concern
Bring details of the change, relevant health history, current products and previous procedures.
02 · Consultation Discuss scope and realistic limits
The consultation should establish whether a cosmetic approach is appropriate or further assessment is needed. No procedure is promised.
03 · Next step Make an informed choice
If a cosmetic option is appropriate, review the exact proposal, risks, price and follow-up before deciding. No treatment is a valid choice.
Questions before choosing a cosmetic approach
Consider the specific concern, realistic limits and the actual proposal.
Choose the right starting point
Describe the change and bring details of products, medicines, previous procedures and any existing diagnosis. Persistent or concerning symptoms should receive appropriate healthcare advice.
What to ask about a cosmetic service
Ask for the exact procedure, intended cosmetic effect, evidence, risks and recovery. A cleanse is not equivalent to a peel, light treatment, needling or an injectable procedure.
Confirm the actual appointment
Check the selected service, clinic and practitioner in the booking app. Wilmslow is the primary clinic; Didsbury availability depends on the exact service. No medical service or practitioner eligibility is inferred from this guide.
