Assessment before treatment
The clinician examines the concern and reviews relevant history before discussing treatment. If the concern is uncertain or outside scope, referral may be the safest next step.
Treatment options are concern-specific
SmartPICO may be discussed for selected suitable pigmentation concerns. Skin lesions, warts or verrucas require their own assessment and treatment pathway rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Consent, patch testing and pricing
The expected benefits, limitations, risks, preparation, likely number of sessions and exact fee are discussed before treatment. A patch test may be required for laser services.
Aftercare and review
Follow the written aftercare instructions and contact the clinic about unexpected reactions. Review arrangements depend on the treatment and response.
