— About these photographs
Every photograph here is of a real patient treated at London Real Skin or by our practitioners, published with written consent, and shown without retouching, smoothing or relighting. Where a pair was taken under different lighting we say so rather than correcting it.
Some of these cases were photographed part-way through a course rather than at the end, and the caption says so where that is true. Laser tattoo removal in particular is a course of sessions, not an appointment. Where a treatment is available at the clinic under a specific name you can read about it in treatments, or find the concern it addresses in conditions.
Results vary between people. Skin type, age, the concern being treated, how many sessions are completed and what happens at home afterwards all change the outcome, and none of these cases is a prediction of yours. What a course can realistically do for your skin is a conversation for the consultation, which is free.
