About Laser Hair Removal
We use diode and Nd:YAG laser technology. These are medical-grade systems designed to target the melanin in hair follicles with precision, disrupting the follicle's ability to regrow hair. Diode laser works across a broad range of skin tones. Nd:YAG is effective for darker skin tones and finer hair types. At your consultation, your practitioner assesses your skin tone, hair colour, and the areas you want to treat, and selects the appropriate laser setting for your profile.
We treat all major body areas: legs (full or half), underarms, bikini line and Brazilian, full face, upper lip, chin, back, chest, arms, and shoulders. We also offer patch testing before treatment begins to confirm your skin's response to the laser.
A standard treatment session takes between 15 and 60 minutes depending on the size of the area. Most clients notice a reduction in hair density from the third session onwards. Laser targets hair in its active growth phase, which is why multiple sessions spaced apart are necessary. A full course produces lasting results.

Why Choose Changes Clinic Near Guildford
Medical-grade lasers, not IPL. IPL (intense pulsed light) devices are not lasers. They are less targeted and less effective, particularly on lighter hair and darker skin. We use diode and Nd:YAG laser systems. For clients travelling from Guildford, the difference in technology is worth the drive.
VTCT Level 4 qualified, experienced & insured practitioners. Every laser treatment at Changes Clinic is delivered by practitioners qualified to Level 4 in laser and light therapies. This is the recognised clinical standard for safe laser hair removal in the UK.
Free patch test and free consultation. Before your course begins, we carry out a patch test and a full skin assessment at no charge. Klarna lets you spread the cost of a full treatment course across three monthly payments at 0% interest, and parking at Lakeside is free.

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.

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 :) .

She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

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
How far is Changes Clinic from Guildford?
The clinic at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham is approximately 50 to 55 minutes from Guildford via the A3 south. There is free on-site parking at Lakeside, so you arrive at the door rather than a nearby street.
How many sessions will I need?
A full course typically involves six to eight sessions. Facial areas are treated every four to six weeks. Body areas are treated every six to eight weeks. This spacing aligns with the hair growth cycle and is what allows the laser to catch each follicle in its active phase. Your practitioner will confirm a schedule at your consultation.
Is there any downtime after laser hair removal?
Downtime is minimal. The treated skin may appear red or feel slightly warm for a few hours after each session. We recommend avoiding sun exposure, sunbeds, and heat treatments for 48 hours before and after your appointment. Day-to-day activity is not affected.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your first appointment combines a free consultation and a patch test. Your practitioner assesses your skin tone and hair type, selects the appropriate laser setting, and applies a small test area to confirm your skin responds well. This takes around 30 minutes. Your first treatment session is booked separately, usually one to two weeks later.
