Doctor's mole and skincheck
A full-body check by a doctor with dermoscopy, photographed for next year. Changing moles seen within three working days.
412 checks, 23 same-day referrals, 4 melanomas found early
№ 01What it is
What it is, and how it goes.
Cosmetic treatment on skin that has not been looked at properly is the wrong order. Dr Haddad checks every mole and mark with a dermatoscope, photographs the ones worth watching, and writes it all down. Anything that needs a specialist is referred the same day with a letter and the images.
How it works
- Your history: sun, sunbeds, family, anything that has changed
- Head-to-toe examination with dermoscopy, chaperone offered
- Photographs of moles worth comparing next year
- Written report the same day; urgent referral where needed
A mole that is changing, bleeding, itching or new after 40 should not wait for a routine slot: call, and we will see you within three working days.

Often the answer to
The review policy
Every injectable treatment includes a review at two weeks with photographs compared to your consultation images. Anti-wrinkle injections are topped up at the review if the result is short or uneven, at no charge. Hyaluronic acid filler is adjusted or dissolved at no charge if we agree the result is not right. Courses are reviewed at three months with imaging. If the doctor advises at consultation that a treatment is not right for you, any deposit is refunded in full.
Your first appointment: a consultation, not a treatment
45 minutes with a doctor, £75, credited to any treatment within three months.
01Why can't I be treated at the consultation?
Because deciding and doing should not happen in the same hour. Every treatment here follows a face-to-face consultation with a prescriber and a cooling-off period of at least 48 hours; England's planned licensing scheme proposes the same minimum. Most people book the treatment for the following week before they leave.
02How do deposits work?
A £50 deposit secures a treatment appointment and comes off the price on the day. It is refunded in full if you cancel with 48 hours' notice, or at any time if the doctor decides at consultation that the treatment is not right for you. Consultations are paid on the day and credited to any treatment within three months.
03Do you treat under-18s?
No. Injectable cosmetic treatment under 18 has been illegal in England since 2021, and we apply the same rule to every cosmetic treatment. We ask for photographic ID if there is any doubt. Skin health checks and acne advice for teenagers are available with a doctor, with a parent present.
04I'm pregnant or breastfeeding. What can I have?
A facial, LED and a routine designed around pregnancy. We do not do injectables, peels, laser, IPL or fat freezing during pregnancy or breastfeeding: not because of proven harm, but because there is no evidence of safety and we will not be the ones to test it. Book a skin health consultation and we will plan the rest for later.
05Will people be able to tell?
Our aim is that people tell you that you look well and cannot say why. We treat by the smallest area and the fewest millilitres that will do the job, and add at the two-week review if you want more. About a third of the people we see are advised to do less than they asked for.
06What if I don't like the result?
Tell us at the review, or before. Anti-wrinkle results are adjusted with a top-up at two weeks and wear off within months. Hyaluronic acid filler can be adjusted or dissolved, and under our review policy we do that without charge if we agree it is not right. Last year we dissolved seven.
07Who is regulated by whom?
Our doctors are registered with the General Medical Council and our nurses with the Nursing and Midwifery Council; both prescribe. The clinic is registered with the Care Quality Commission for the treatments that require it. Our laser therapists are on the Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners register and hold NVQ Level 4 in laser and light. Registration numbers on this example site are demonstration numbers.
08Do you sell gift vouchers, and can they be used for injectables?
Vouchers are for any amount and are valid for twelve months on facials, LED, skincare, programmes and skin plans. They cannot be used for injectables: a gift should never be the reason someone has a needle in their face. If the recipient chooses an injectable after a consultation, the voucher value can be used toward the consultation and skincare instead.
