Frequently asked

Questions, answered plainly.

If something is not covered here, ask us directly. We would rather answer a question before you book than after.

01 · Treatments

Choosing and understanding treatments.

You do not need to choose in advance. Book a skin analysis or consultation and we will assess your skin, discuss your goals and recommend a plan. Sometimes the recommendation is to start with something simpler than you expected.

No. Individual responses vary, and no responsible practitioner can guarantee a specific outcome. We discuss likely benefits, limitations and risks before you decide, and review progress as we go.

Often, yes — but timing matters. Some treatments need a gap before or after others, particularly injectables, laser and active facials. We sequence combined plans deliberately rather than stacking appointments in one week.

We assess suitability for every skin type and tone individually. Some devices and protocols carry different risks on deeper skin tones, and we will explain this openly. If a treatment is not appropriate for your skin, we will not offer it.

02 · Skincare

Products and routines.

No. We will recommend products only where they serve a clear purpose, and we are happy to work with what you already own. If we suggest something, we will explain why and offer alternatives at different price points.

Skin turnover takes time, and timelines differ by concern and treatment. We will give you a realistic sense of what to expect and when to review. Anyone promising overnight change should be treated with caution.

Yes — it is one of the most common consultations we have. Bring your current products or photographs of the labels, and we will help you edit rather than add.

03 · Memberships

Continuity and terms.

No. All treatments and consultations can be booked without a membership. Membership is for people who want regular review, priority booking and a named practitioner.

Review appointments, priority booking and continuity with a named practitioner. Any treatment inclusions or discounts would be stated explicitly in final terms — the membership page currently shows demo pricing only.

This prototype does not set prices. In a live clinic, membership fees, notice periods and any price review policy would be set out in writing before joining.

04 · Booking

Appointments and access.

Evening and weekend slots tend to go first. If you have a specific date in mind, mention it in your enquiry and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

Cancellation and deposit terms would be confirmed clearly before booking and in your confirmation.

Please tell us about any access requirements in your enquiry so we can confirm step-free entry, quiet spaces or additional time before you visit.

05 · Preparation & aftercare

Before and after.

We usually suggest pausing strong exfoliants for a few days, avoiding waxing or laser on the face beforehand, and arriving with clean skin. Specific guidance depends on the treatment — we will confirm when you book.

Some treatments can be adapted; others are not performed during pregnancy. Tell us at booking so we can advise appropriately and, where needed, ask for guidance from your midwife or doctor.

Contact the studio with a description and, if possible, a photograph. We will advise on immediate steps and arrange a review where needed. For severe symptoms, seek urgent medical care.

06 · General

The studio and this website.

No. Serein is a fictional studio created for a design prototype. The website demonstrates a front-end experience only; no clinical services, bookings or payments are provided.

This prototype does not transmit or store form data. A live clinic would provide a privacy notice explaining what is collected, why, how long it is kept and your rights. See the privacy notice.

The content is sample editorial for a prototype. In a live clinic, medical content would be reviewed by a registered practitioner with named authorship and a review date.

Still unsure?

Send a question without booking anything. We will answer honestly, even if the answer is “we are not sure yet”.
