About Consultation
Wondering what a mark on your skin is, or if it can be taken off? Start with a skin lesion consultation with Cinzia, who has over 25 years' experience in advanced skin treatments. She'll examine the blemish closely, ask how long it's been there and whether it has changed, and talk you through your options.
Everyday harmless blemishes like thread veins, blood spots and skin tags can often be treated with advanced electrolysis. If something looks unusual, has changed, or can't be identified with confidence, Cinzia will refer you to your GP or a dermatologist for a medical opinion. Your safety comes first, and nothing is treated unless she's sure.

Is this treatment right for me?
This consultation is for anyone with a blemish they want checked or removed. It isn't a medical diagnosis, and any lesion that raises concern is referred for a medical assessment.
You may be suitable if…
- There's a blemish you'd like identified and maybe removed
- You'd like to know if advanced electrolysis would work for it
- You want advice on several blemishes in one go
- You're not sure whether a doctor should see something
Your consultation will consider…
- How long the blemish has been there and if it has changed
- Its size, shape, colour and feel
- Your health history and skin type
- Whether it needs a medical assessment first
What to expect
Before treatment
You don't need to prepare anything. If you can, jot down when you first spotted the blemish and any changes since; photos taken over time help.
During treatment
Cinzia looks at the blemish in good light, asks about its history and explains what she can see. If it's suitable to treat, she'll suggest the best approach and how long to book; if not, she'll tell you why and where to go instead.
After treatment
You go home with a clear next step: a treatment appointment, advice to keep an eye on the area, or a recommendation to see your GP or a dermatologist.
Results & longevity
A consultation won't change your skin, but it gives you answers: what the blemish probably is, whether it can be treated safely, and, if so, what result to expect and how many sessions it may take.
Recovery, side effects & aftercare
Nothing to recover from, as a consultation is only an assessment.
Side effects
None.
Aftercare
If you're asked to keep an eye on a blemish, photograph it clearly every few weeks, and see your GP quickly if it changes size, shape or colour, bleeds or itches.
Contact the clinic or your GP if a blemish changes, bleeds without being knocked, starts to itch or hurt, or looks unlike your other moles or marks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a medical diagnosis?
No. This is an expert skin assessment. If something looks unusual or has changed, you'll be referred to your GP or a dermatologist for a diagnosis.
Can a blemish be removed on the day?
Possibly, if it's clearly suitable and there's time, though many people would rather book treatment after the consultation. Cinzia will advise you.
Which blemishes can advanced electrolysis treat?
Common benign ones like thread veins, blood spots and skin tags. Moles aren't removed; see Mole Assessment Information.
Should I go to my GP instead?
If a mark is new, changing, bleeding, itchy or unlike your others, see your GP first. Cinzia always recommends a medical assessment when one is needed.
Can you look at more than one blemish?
Yes. Just tell us when you book so we can allow enough time.
