Treatments · Twelve
Sessions, downtime, price. All of it, up front.
Not one of the twenty-one clinic sites we looked at published the downtime. It is the first thing anyone asks in the room, so it is the first thing on every card below.
A wedding, a shoot, an interview, a holiday. Kept in this browser for this visit only — nothing is sent anywhere unless you fill in the enquiry form.
With no date entered, nothing below is hidden: every treatment already shows its full course, its downtime and its price. Adding a date simply sorts the twelve into what can be finished in time, what is cutting it fine, and what cannot.The last of those three is the one most clinics will not tell you.
