Why Battersea chooses Melatone

Three things every Battersea laser clinic should be doing.

01

The right wavelength for your skin.

Most Battersea and Clapham laser clinics use Alexandrite or Diode-only platforms. For Fitzpatrick V and VI, that is the difference between a clean result and a burn. We use 1064nm Nd:YAG as the default for darker skin tones, with 808nm Diode for medium tones and 755nm Alexandrite for the lightest. We choose at patch test.

02

VTCT Level 4 delivery, supervised by a GMC-registered clinician.

Catia Zaki holds the VTCT Level 4 Certificate in Laser and IPL Treatments, specialising in Skin of Colour. All laser work is delivered by Catia under the clinical supervision of Arman Zaki, our GMC-registered clinical lead. Read Catia's full bio.

03

Patch test, every time.

£10 patch test before your first session, regardless of where you have been lasered before. We use it to confirm your Fitzpatrick type, settings, and tolerance. It is also a 20-minute consult with Catia, where you can ask anything before you commit.
