    As I have been battling with Rosacea and redness for years I only wish I had found The Pulse Light…read moreClinic sooner, as many have said before on this site that they wish they had found the clinic that gives the required results sooner!!! Having achieved remarkable results & a quality of service to match, this clinic provides state of the art equipment combined with very experienced & knowledgeable staff to deliver really good results. Better results within a few visits than years of me running around to a scattering of beauty salons offering IPL treatments, some at better pricing too but they didn't have the depth & breadth of knowledge or understanding or quality of machines, but more importantly I am most impressed with the holistic approach of the clinic who take into account a multitude of factors not just procedural but your diet & lifestyle too, you can see this by even downloading an ebook for free that I did after my first treatment and it has really helped, I would recommend it, it has great dietary advice! http://www.pulselightclinic.co.uk/rosacea They are conveniently located within the City, right near Fenchurch Street Station, useful if you work in or around the City, I don't live or work nearby at all but the unique ability of this clinic to deliver tangible lasting results along with excellent service and friendly staff ensures that I keep coming back and don't mind the travel involved, well worth it! I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for treatment on any of the host of conditions they offer medical pulse light treatments for, it certainly worked for my redness & Rosacea! Notwithstanding the above you also have the back-up of a highly trained & friendly team who really seem keen to monitor my progress. I hope this review helps, I would recommend a consultation if you are considering treatment!!!

I was a…read morevery hairy man but after my course of laser hair removal at the Pulse Light Clinic I am now a smooth man! The staff are really nice and fun to talk to and also very professional and the clinic is clean. Even though I was hairy the hair removal took less sessions than I had anticipated and is much cheaper than having hair removal in London elsewhere. Thanks again team! I will send any of my hairy friends to you for laser hair removal in London anytime!

    I bought a Groupon voucher for this salon on the premise that it would cover a Brazilian. Both the…read moreadvert and my voucher made a point of saying 'including Brazilian' repeatedly. However, when I arrived at the salon for my consultation I was told that 'A Brazilian here isn't like a Brazilian at other places - it's just high bikini.' When I pointed out that that isn't a Brazilian, that's a high bikini and they shouldn't be advertising it as such, they said well we don't offer Brazilian to Groupon customers. I pointed out that it was advertised on both the voucher and their Groupon advert, but they refused to uphold this. Completely false advertising - I bought the voucher and took time out of my working day to go down there for the appointment, only be told that in fact I wasn't entitled to what I'd been promised. Very bad customer service.

    In brief: STAY AWAY FROM THIS CLINIC!…read more After purchasing an offer of six sessions at what seemed to be initially a very good price for what I was promised ("at least 80% of the hair will be permanently removed, nothing else to worry about"), I got a nightmare experience of a skin infection that led to skin scaring that might be permanent, and the hair is growing back only three months after the last treatment! The skin infection was not identified by the beautician despite my initial concerns - probably due to lack of training, who continued with the IPL treatment which caused the infection to spread! The clinic has shown no interest and has taken no responsibility for the damage they have caused! Total lack of professionalism. Even one star is generous. I am currently seeking legal advice.

    I would not recommend Sk:n. It felt very "for profit" and less "health and wellbeing" from the…read moreappointment setting via a mega call center, deposits required for consultations and then only applied to treatments that are very expensive, etc. I left the experience very annoyed and switched to another practice I've had great results with. This is a big corporate operation, I'm not a fan. I wrote in based on my experienced and received a very thoughtful reply (yet zero offer of compensation - I spent upwards of £300 -- or to make it better), thus 2 stars instead of 1. Transcript below. -- Hi, Dr Halfhide's bedside manner is abrupt. He made several comments generalizing Americans, of which I am one. I found this unprofessional and frankly, annoying. If I'm paying £150 for an appointment lasting 15 minutes, I don't expect to be insulted in the process. Besides that, I was booked in for a nurse consultation that felt more like a pitch for products, then had to rebook in for the next day to come see a doctor. That initial consultation could've easily taken place over the phone, she didn't even LOOK at my skin! It lasted about 3 minutes. I had to rearrange my work schedule 2 days consecutively and the entire process felt like I was being manipulated. Also, I was sold products I cannot use now that the doctor prescribed Differin (adapalene). These were pitched to me on the "consultation." Expensive products that I no longer can use that felt forced on me so someone could earn a commission. There was zero coordination between the doctor and consultant. Very odd. I was not pleased with my experience at Sk:n. I'm not sure if this is always how business is done, but I certainly feel I was treated unfairly and inappropriately, not to mention that there didn't seem to be a lot of cohesiveness to the treatment plans between the nurse and the doctor. Colleen -- Response from Sk:n via email -- Hi Colleen, Thank you very much for getting back to me. Firstly I would like to apologise for your experience with Sk:n. I am very disappointed to hear about your consultation with Dr Halfhide, noone has complained about his bedside manner before and this is feedback that he would definitely want to know. We do take customer care very seriously so I am sincerely sorry for his comments. In regards to the nurse consultation, she did write notes in your file as to why you were booked with the Doctor so I am sorry she did not communicate this effectively to yourself. There are several types of acne and she is an acne specialist, we can usually tell pretty quickly what type of acne a client has and whether or not this is something we can treat or if a client needs antibiotics, it isn't something you can diagnose over the phone unfortunately. I apologise you felt like it was 'a pitch' for products for commission purposes, however, our practitioners, nurses and doctors do not earn commission on any of our products or treatments. It is not like a spa or beauty salon, it is a medical clinic so this doesn't apply to our clinics. I have spoken to the doctor and nurse in regards to the products and the antibiotics, and you cannot use the products in conjunction with the antibiotics but as soon as you have finished these you can go straight onto the products to prolong the affects of the prescription that the doctor administered. This is why they were offered at the time. Once again, I really do apologise that the whole experience has seemed rushed and a push for sales with inappropriate bedside manner from the doctor. I will raise this with the staff in question, this is not how we wish to portray our company nor treat our clients who we do value. We really do appreciate your feedback so thank you for taking the time to respond.

    For all the girls out there, if you want a life changing experience I highly recommend the laser…read morehair removal treatment. It's a little bit pricy as you have to follow a course of 6 treatment to have the full result but it is definately worth it. It does work and you don't need to worry about waxing anymore!!

When I finally decided to get rid of it for good I started investigating what my options were and what the best clinic in London was, and after days of searching I've found the Elan Medical Skin Clinic. I understand it's run by the lovely Sue Ibrahim and has its main branch in Rayleigh, Essex. Sue is in the London branch every Wednesday. I've enquired and booked all online (which I appreciated as I hate phoning people). There is a £50 fee to pay for the first consultation. Last week I headed to Whitecross Street and met Sue. She talked me through the different ways a mole can be removed and what her preferred methods are, then examined my mole and told me a cut at the base with radio wave would suffice as it didn't have any root. I was able to do it there right after the consultation, didn't feel any pain whatsoever and all in all I was out of there in 30 minutes. The actual removal took about 3 minutes. Paid £250. Today the scab has fallen off and I can barely see anything, I am ever so grateful to Sue for her professionalism and kindness, and I could not recommend her enough. I was really scared of heavy scarring and I feel silly now that I can see it'll all be fine once the new skin isn't as pink as it is now. Thank you Sue.
