Step 1 — Your free consultation and skin assessment
Your practitioner assesses your skin under clinical lighting, asking about your history with acne, previous treatments you have tried, your skincare routine and any relevant medical or hormonal factors. This information shapes the treatment recommendation. You leave your consultation with a specific plan, not a generic protocol.
Step 2 — Your treatment
Depending on your skin assessment, treatment may involve a clinical-grade chemical peel, laser, LED light therapy or a combination of approaches. Each session is performed in our clinical environment by a qualified, experienced & insured practitioner. Treatment frequency and duration depend on acne type and severity. Sessions typically take 30 to 60 minutes.
Step 3 — Your results
Acne treatment produces cumulative results. Most clients notice a reduction in active breakouts and skin congestion after the first 2 to 3 sessions, with skin texture improvements building over the course of treatment. Your practitioner reviews your progress at each appointment and adjusts the approach if needed. Book a free consultation

Why Choose Changes Clinic Near Waterlooville
Assessment-led approach, not a set protocol. Acne does not present the same way in every client. Your practitioner spends time understanding your skin before recommending anything. This takes longer than a walk-in clinic but produces better outcomes.

Free initial consultation, Klarna available. Your skin assessment appointment is free. If you go ahead with a treatment course, you can spread the cost across 3 monthly Klarna payments at 0% interest. Changes Clinic holds CQC registration and operates from 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference.
Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much.
Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process.
I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas.
I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method.
I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin.
The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available.
I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common Questions
What should I expect at my first appointment?
Your first appointment is a free consultation. Your practitioner assesses your skin under clinical lighting, asks about your acne history, any medications or supplements you take, and previous treatments you have tried. She uses this information to build a treatment plan specific to your skin type and acne pattern. You leave the consultation knowing exactly what is recommended and why, with no pressure to book on the day.
Am I a suitable candidate for clinical acne treatment?
Most adults with active acne or post-acne concerns are suitable for clinical treatment at Changes Clinic. Some treatments, such as chemical peels and laser, require a period without active tan or recent sun exposure. Clients currently using certain prescription acne medications may need to pause treatment before some procedures. Clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding should discuss this at consultation. Your practitioner will advise on all of this at your assessment.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. You can spread the cost of your acne treatment course across 3 monthly payments through Klarna at 0% interest. No fee applies for choosing this option. Mention it when you make your initial enquiry and we will confirm how it works at your consultation.
How far is Changes Clinic from Waterlooville?
