At Sussex Laser and Skin Clinic we have multiple methods and technologies available to us enabling us to choose the correct method for your hair and skin to achieve the best possible results. All laser treatments will require a consultation prior to treatment, pricing for longer times and larger areas will be discussed at the consultation. Consultations are charged at £25 and include a patch test.

Patch Test

Test patches are carried out to determine the treatment parameters and to judge how your skin might react to a full treatment.
A test patch is a small trial in an area with similar hair and skin to the treatment site and allows the practitioner to assess how well the light energy is absorbed and whether the skin is responding as would be expected.
Patch tests are required a minimum of one week prior to full treatment.
