The Laser Clinic

Skin tags are small, soft growths that commonly develop in areas where the skin rubs together—such as the neck, underarms, eyelids or under the breasts.

They’re incredibly common and completely benign, although they can become irritated, catch on clothing or jewellery, or simply be something you’d rather not have.

The good news? They can often be removed quickly and effectively using advanced electrolysis.

Treatment is straightforward, and we’ll talk you through exactly what to expect during your consultation, including aftercare and healing.

If you’ve been wondering whether a skin tag can be removed, feel free to get in touch—we’re always happy to answer your questions.

Have you ever caught sight of something new while looking in the mirror and wondered whether it’s normal?

Our skin naturally changes over time, and many lumps, bumps and marks that appear are completely benign. That said, it’s always worth paying attention to anything that’s new, changing or causing concern.

Knowing what to look out for—and when to get it checked—can help you feel more confident about your skin health.

This month’s blog explores benign skin changes, the importance of skin awareness, and when it’s worth seeking professional advice.

It’s something we hear more often than you might expect.

Not because the treatment takes a long time—it usually doesn’t. It’s because so many people spend months (or even years) wondering, researching and putting it off before finally booking that first consultation.

If you’ve been thinking about treatment but aren’t sure where to start, that’s completely normal.

We’re not going anywhere, and there’s no rush. Whether you’re ready now or simply want to understand your options, we’re here to answer your questions with honest advice and no obligation.

Sometimes the hardest part is taking that first step. The treatment itself is often the easiest bit.

There’s a common misconception that aesthetic treatments come from a place of insecurity. But in our experience, this is rarely true.

You can feel confident in who you are and choose to make a change. Equally, you can decide treatment isn’t for you at all. Both are valid.

At our clinic, there’s never any pressure to go ahead with treatment. That’s exactly why we offer free, no-obligation consultations – a chance to ask questions, explore your options and decide what’s right for you, in your own time.

Because aesthetics should always be about choice, not pressure.

Why do we put treatment off?

“I’ve had it for years.”
“It’s only cosmetic.”
“I’ll sort it another time.”

We hear this so often.

The truth is, many benign skin blemishes are harmless—but that doesn’t mean you have to just live with them if they’re bothering you.

Whether it’s catching on clothing, affecting your confidence, or you’re simply tired of seeing it every day, it’s okay to decide that enough is enough.

There’s never any pressure to have treatment, but if you’d like to know your options, we’re always happy to offer honest, impartial advice and help you make the decision that’s right for you.

Sometimes it’s not the big things. It’s the little things we quietly adapt around.

The skin tag that catches on your necklace.
The one you avoid in photos.
The one you’ve been meaning to ask about for years.

Most skin tags are completely harmless and don’t need treatment. But if it’s bothering you, catching, irritating, or simply making you feel less comfortable in your own skin, that’s reason enough to explore your options.

You don’t need to justify wanting a change, and you don’t have to dislike yourself to choose treatment either.

Our latest blog, The Little Things We Stop Noticing, explores why we often live with these small frustrations for so long—and why it’s okay to decide you’re ready to do something about them.

Q. Should I postpone my aesthetic treatment because of the heatwave?
A. Possibly. Possibly not…
Aesthetic treatments don’t stop for summer—but treatment planning is key.

Periods of prolonged heat can affect your skin’s barrier, increase UV exposure and influence the healing process following some treatments.

Rather than applying the same approach all year round, we adapt our recommendations to your skin, your lifestyle and the conditions at the time of treatment. Because the right treatment, at the right time, with the right aftercare, will always deliver better results than following a fixed plan.

If you’re unsure whether the recent hot weather may affect your appointment, we’d much rather you ask than worry. We’re here to help. Reach out in the comments, DM or follow the link in our bio ☀️

The recent heatwave has seen scorching temperatures hitting highs of over 36 degrees, and for some, avoiding the suns rays will have been impossible.

If the sun has caught you out and you’ve ended up tanning or burning, here’s what you need to know:

👉🏼 please be honest with us: if you’re tanned or burned, we need to know. Treating tanned skin with laser or IPL significantly increases the risk of blistering, pigmentation and scarring.

👉🏼 No laser or IPL for 4-6 weeks after tanning.

👉🏼 SPF is non-negotiable. Opt for SPF 50, reapply regularly & wherever possible, avoid direct sun exposure to the treatment area/s.

If you’ve got an appointment scheduled and you’ve caught the sun, have a visible tan or a concern, get in touch with a DM or via the link in the bio. Your safety is our priority and we will be happy to discuss, advise or reschedule for you 😎

A safe space 🌈

There’s a lot of talk online about safe spaces, and if you know, you know. But if you don’t, here’s what that means to us:

A space to be yourself.
A space where your pronouns are respected.
A space to imagine who you’ve always dreamed of being.
A space to explore affirming treatment.
A space without judgement.
A space where you feel seen, heard and valued.

We know that seeking treatment can feel vulnerable. Our commitment is simple: to provide a space where you can show up exactly as you are and receive treatment with respect, compassion and humanity.

If this matters to you, we’d love to welcome you.

TANNING AND LASER - what you need to know…

The weather is doing its finest impersonation of ‘might need a coat this morning, could get sunburnt on the school run this afternoon’ recently, but did you know the impact tanning has on laser treatment? The risk of pigmentation changes, burning, blistering and potential scarring or discolouration means tanning and laser is a big no no.

Whilst we’re never going to advocate for tanning, some treatments are still safe after sun exposure, such as electrolysis. If you’re interested in laser treatment but not sure what that means for you with the ever changing weather, you can find our more in this months blog via the link in our bio ☀️
