How planning works
A clear three-step pathway
- 01
Assessment
Skin type, treatment area, indication, previous procedures and risk of pigment change are assessed before device selection.
- 02
Personalised plan
Device settings and session intervals are selected conservatively and adjusted according to response and tolerance.
- 03
Measured follow-up
Healing, pigment response and visible improvement are reviewed before the next session is confirmed.
Safety and expectations
What consultation should establish
- The diagnosis or treatment indication is clinically appropriate.
- Benefits, limitations, alternatives and relevant risks are understood.
- The number and interval of sessions are based on response, not a fixed promise.
- Aftercare, review timing and warning signs are explained before treatment.
