Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a consultation before booking?
Yes, for your first treatment. Consultations are completely complimentary, and they let me make sure a treatment is safe and right for you.
Why do I need a patch test?
For all laser and IPL treatments, a patch test at least one week before your first session lets me check how your skin responds and choose the perfect settings for you. Safety always comes first.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
Yes, a £25 deposit secures every appointment and comes off your treatment price. It's non-refundable, but you can transfer it to a new date if you give me at least 48 hours' notice. Cancelling or rescheduling with less than 48 hours' notice means the full treatment price is charged.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most people describe it as a warm flick, like a rubber band. It's very quick and very manageable.
Is laser suitable for my skin and hair colour?
It depends on your skin type and hair colour. Very fair, grey, white and red hair don't respond well to laser. I'll assess you honestly at your consultation.
Can I have treatments if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Laser, IPL and microneedling aren't recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Pop me a message and we can go through which options are safe for you.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Avoid sun exposure and fake tan for 2 weeks before laser or IPL, and come with clean, makeup-free skin where possible. Full aftercare is always confirmed at your appointment.
Do you offer courses?
Yes! Courses give you better results and better value, with savings on every laser, skin and tattoo removal course.
Where are you and is there parking?
I'm at Pure Offices Weston, 137 Pastures Avenue, Weston-super-Mare, BS22 7SB. There is a complimentary car park on site, and the code for the barrier will be sent over with your appointment confirmation.
What age do I need to be?
All treatments are for clients aged 18 and over.
