Advanced skin consultations in Kettering
If you are not sure what a mark on your skin is, whether it can be treated, or which of our treatments would suit you, start here. A consultation is a proper look, an honest opinion and a plan, with no obligation to go ahead.
What happens at a consultation
We sit down with you, look closely at the concern under good light and magnification, and ask about its history: how long it has been there, whether it has changed, what you have tried. We explain what we think it is, in plain words, and which treatment we would suggest, how many sessions, how it heals and what it costs. If a blemish needs a medical opinion before we treat it, we tell you so and help you get it. Moles always need a professional check before cosmetic reduction; our Map My Mole service can provide that.
Skin planning
A consultation is also where longer skin plans begin. For concerns like pigmentation, redness, acne scarring or general skin health, we will put together a realistic programme combining the right treatments and homecare, and set out what to expect and when.

What to bring
Any photographs that show how a blemish has changed, a note of medications and medical conditions, and your questions. Come without make-up on the area if you can.
Free treatment consultations
Our treatment consultations are free. Map My Mole assessments are a separate, chargeable service. Current appointment options and prices for every treatment are shown in our online booking system.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a consultation before every treatment?
No. Straightforward skin tags and similar blemishes can be booked directly and assessed at the start of the appointment. Moles, cysts, xanthelasma and anything you are unsure about should start with a consultation.
Can you treat on the same day?
Where it is appropriate and time allows, often yes. We will say at the consultation.
Can you diagnose skin conditions?
No. We can tell you what a blemish appears to be and whether it is something we treat, but diagnosis is a medical matter. When in doubt we will always send you to your GP first.
