I had fractional laser CO2 treatment and it has been the worse experience of my life. I have PTSD, anxiety permanent scarring and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Before the procedure no patch test was carried out which apparently is a legal requirement and no potential risks were explained. I have a darker skin type which means I am at more risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation which wasn’t explained to me. I was not asked to sign any consent form and the after care was non existent !! I was told the downtime was five days which is incorrect, it has been nearly three weeks and my skin is still recovering. If the risks were explained I would never have had the procedure done!!. I visited out of hours three days after the procedure because I was in severe pain and worried I had an infection. Luckily I did not have an infection but was prescribed strong painkillers to help with the pain.
6-7 days after the procedure, I was beginning to panic and had a lot of concerns and asked the beauty consultant to see me. She agreed but this should not have even been something I asked for. This is a prerequisite after such an invasive proecudure!! This would in fact allow the beauty consultant to assess the client’s recovery. !! At this point, my skin was very pink, raw, irritated and sore. When I went to see the beauty consultant she fobbed me off and said it’s part of the process. She then asked me to give her a good review on Google which I agreed to because I was scared if I didint she would not agree to see me if my skin did not heal. As soon as I got home, I realised that I cannot morally give this person a good review as I dont trust her and don’t want another human being enduring what I did. I changed the review and then she messaged me saying ‘ I am a horrible and vile person and she will get rid of the review’ . That was extremely unprofessional and rude!! How can I give someone a good review when they have messed my face up.
Over the next few days I developed post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and subsequently went to see medical professionals who specialise in aesthetics, laser treatment and skin dermatology. They were shocked that this treatment was carried out on my skin type. I was in fact told this procedure should have never had been done on me. I was also told the wrong settings were used!! I was prescribed a topical ointment to help with the post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and was told that it can take a minimum of 3-6 months to get rid of the post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The nurse at the clinic I am attending has been checking up on me regularly, she told me she couldn’t stop thinking about me because of the way I was dealt with from beginning to end. I have cried myself to sleep every night since I have had this procedure, I don’t want anyone to go through what I am going through. It has taken a significant toll on my self of esteem and mental health. I will be escalating this issue further!!.
I wouldn’t have even given this person a one star review but unfortunately that was the only option I had otherwise I wouldn’t be able to write a review, and I want to make sure others don’t make the same mistake I did!!
Treatment by Amalie Mee•Skincare Consultation
I had a co2 laser fractional resurfacing treatment and it was the worse ever experience. I have PTSD, permanent scarring and hyperpigmentation. The beautician did not discuss any potential risks especially for my Asian skin type, after care and did not arrange follow ups with me. She only agreed to see me when I highlighted my concerns. I went to see a dermatologist today who was shocked firstly with the treatment and lack of after care and have been advised to take legal action!
Treatment by Amalie Mee•Skincare Consultation
I've never met a more passively aggressive and rude person when getting a treatment.
Purchased a block of 3.
First she took a very personal call during my first treatment completely bad mouthing someone.
Second app she didn't show for, wasting my afternoon.
Third she stood over me while I was getting treatment #2 and told me I changed the settings on the machine when she left me alone again! I couldnt even reach the machine.
Told me to get out when I suggested her attitude was inappropriate
Treatment by Amalie Mee•Body Sculpting
I have a bad experience with Amie. She asked for extra deposit of £150 for the fat dissolving session and hardsell for a 2nd session. when I am having an infection and want to cancel future sessions, she said deposits are non-refundable.
Treatment by Amalie Mee•Lipo Treatments
Brilliant experience, went in for a consult and came away with treatments all done! Amalie was so sweet and listened to what I wanted - a professional through and through.
