Although I have not personally visited the clinic, I am in the industry that deals with laser removal and reconstruction after body modification. After seeing the program on Channel 4 about people's regrets on tattoos and piercings, I was shocked to see the clinic removing people's tattoos without a protective apron, gloves or face mask. Other laser clinics on this programme all managed to wear the correct protective clothing. At one point, the male technician, wiped his face with his hand before proceeding to continue the treatment. This is disgusting and incredibly unhygienic. There are no excuses for not wearing gloves, wether it meets local council guidelines or not, people should wear gloves! It is a basic in any procedure. If they aren't wearing gloves, it makes you think what other corners they are cutting when it comes to your health and safety. I'd advise avoiding this place, as even less experienced and less professional people doing the same procedures even have the common sense to wear gloves and reduce the risk of cross contamination and infection.

I have had 5 laser appointments at the kingston branch with 4 different staff (they all seem to move on). This is a negative experience for the customer as each therapist is different and i get different opinions on what levels the settings should be (eg the first therapist slapped on aloe before treatments, the second said aloe was not required and took half an hour to do each leg.... the third did the both legs in 20min! Unfortunately i have paid upfront for a years treatment otherwise i would not use the clinic. I had assumed that all staff would receive the same training (so it would not matter if they moved
