What the clinician will assess.

For Scarring skincare, the clinician reviews the skin concern, current routine, medicines, previous reactions and likely triggers. The aim is to create a tolerable, coherent plan rather than adding several products or procedures at once.

The consultation explains the proposed route, likely treatment course, alternatives and the limits of what can reasonably be achieved. A different treatment—or no treatment—may be the safest recommendation.

Expected short-term effects, less common but important risks, recovery, aftercare, warning signs and the appropriate review point are discussed before consent. Individual response varies and no particular outcome can be guaranteed.

A consultation may conclude that a different treatment—or no treatment—is the safest and most appropriate recommendation.
What to expect

From assessment to review.

The exact plan varies by treatment and patient; these are the decision points that remain consistent.

01 · Before History, goals and suitability.

Your clinician reviews medical history, medicines, previous treatment, the relevant area and the change you would like to discuss. Suitability, alternatives and risks are covered before a plan is agreed.

02 · Plan A measured, individual route.

If treatment is suitable, the approach and expected course are selected for your anatomy, skin or hair and goals. The safest recommendation may be a staged plan, another treatment or no treatment.

03 · After Recovery, review and aftercare.

You receive individual aftercare, warning signs and review guidance. Response and recovery vary between patients, and no particular outcome can be guaranteed.

Questions before booking

Frequently asked questions.

Clear, general information to support—not replace—your individual consultation.

How is a skincare plan personalised?
The clinician reviews your skin history, routine, medicines, previous reactions and goals, then introduces suitable ingredients and frequencies in a way your skin can tolerate.
How many treatments will I need?
That depends on the concern, treatment route and your response. The clinician will explain whether one visit, a course or maintenance may be appropriate and when progress can be judged.
What downtime should I expect?
Recovery varies by treatment and patient. Expected redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising, dryness, sensitivity or other route-specific effects are explained before you decide.
When will I see a result?
Timing varies with the treatment and individual biology. Some effects are early while others develop gradually; no particular appearance or degree of change can be guaranteed.
Who may not be suitable?
Suitability depends on medical history, medicines, pregnancy or breastfeeding status where relevant, infection, skin condition, previous procedures and treatment-specific factors reviewed in consultation.
What aftercare will I receive?
You receive individual written or verbal aftercare, warning signs, contact guidance and the appropriate review timing for the chosen treatment.
