Patch test

So looks as though I’m going through with it, as this is kinda the first treatment that needs to be done and to show how more of a step forward it is, I have to reach down to the bottom of my purse in order to go through with it. The patch test was £25.

Before you get all excited and jump on the seat, as you go into the room to get your patch test done, you give the woman the contracts you were given after you had at your consultation, (I know I forgot to mention this but its not like one of those situations like ‘oh my god they want me to sign this because something will go wrong and I cant sue them if I sign’), the contract basically specifies the things you need to do as part of the treatment process. Things such as I will wear protective glasses during treatment, once you have had your treatment aftercare is the most important and that is left to you to do at home, so you agree to be responsible for that. It also mentions you may not always get the same person treating you during each of your visits…you know the usual.

There is another form you have to sign which is basically instructions like its best you wear loose clothing after treatment so fiction doesn’t occur and the after creams they give you should be used like recommended etc.

So, finally, the patch test…I rolled up my baggy jeans, they did a couple of zaps with a gun like thing that shoots the laser and blows cool air since the skin is being exposed to a high temperatures. I roll down my jeans and done and dusted. Apart from having a slight bald patch on my leg, it was a piece of cake.
