Keratosis Pilaris
Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition characterized by small, rough bumps that develop on the skin, often appearing on the arms, legs, cheeks, and buttocks. The condition is caused by the build up of keratin, a protein that protects the skin from harmful substances and infections.
Free, about 40 minutes, in London, Birmingham or Manchester. A written plan and the price before you decide.
Although keratosis pilaris is harmless, it can be unsightly and embarrassing, causing many people to seek treatment. Keratosis pilaris affects people of all ages, including children, adolescents, and adults. The condition is more common in people with dry skin and is often more severe during the winter months when the skin becomes even drier. While there is no cure for keratosis pilaris, there are several treatments available that can help manage the condition. One of the most effective treatments is laser hair removal. Laser hair removal works by using laser energy to target the hair follicles and disrupt the hair growth cycle. This results in a significant reduction in hair growth, and can help to smooth the skin, reduce the appearance of bumps, and improve the overall appearance of the skin. At The Clinic Room, we use state-of-the-art laser hair removal technology that is specifically designed to treat keratosis pilaris. Our highly trained technicians use the latest laser machines that are painless, effective, and safe. Our laser hair removal treatments can help to manage keratosis pilaris and improve the appearance of the skin, resulting in smoother, clearer, and healthier-looking skin. If you are tired of living with the unsightly and embarrassing bumps of keratosis pilaris, contact The Clinic Room today. Our experienced technicians are here to help you achieve the smooth, clear skin you have always wanted. We are the leaders in laser hair removal, and our treatments have helped thousands of people improve their skin's appearance and boost their confidence.

Questions people ask before booking
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. About 40 minutes, in person, in London, Birmingham or Manchester. You leave with a written plan and the price. No obligation.
How much will it cost?
It depends on what your skin needs. Your figure is written into your plan at the free consultation, before you decide, and there are flexible instalment options with no interest or admin fees.
How many visits, and how long?
A standard course is three to six visits over six to ten weeks. If there is a date you are working to, count back ten weeks and tell us.
Does it hurt?
Most treatments feel like warmth, tingling or a quick sting rather than pain, and numbing cream is used where it helps. The practitioner tells you exactly what to expect for your treatment before you decide, and you can stop at any point.
How many visits will I need?
It depends on the treatment and on your skin. Many plans are three to six visits over six to ten weeks; some single treatments are one visit. Your written plan says the number before you pay for anything.
When will I see a difference, and how long does it last?
Some treatments show a change within days; those that work by building collagen take six to twelve weeks to show fully. How long results last depends on the treatment, your skin and how well it is protected from the sun. The practitioner gives you a realistic timeline rather than a promise.
What is the downtime?
Anything from none to a few days of redness or peeling, depending on the treatment. Each treatment page says what to expect, and the plan is timed around your diary where it matters, for example before an event.
Is it safe for darker skin?
Darker skin has more active pigment cells and marks more easily, so settings and treatments are chosen for your skin type and some are avoided. Tell us your skin type at the consultation and the plan is built around it.
Who should not have it?
Pregnancy, some medications, active infections and certain medical conditions rule some treatments out. The consultation goes through this with you, and if a treatment is not suitable the practitioner says so and suggests what will work instead.
Can I combine treatments?
Often, and the programmes are built that way. The order matters: active acne is calmed before scarring is treated, for example. The practitioner sets the sequence.
