Laser treatments

the only PRIVATE clinic to offer this treatment in the uk

The Smart Xide Fractional CO2 Laser improves skin texture by enhancing scar quality (e.g., acne, surgical scars), tightening loose or wrinkled skin, and removing small surface lesions like skin tags and seborrhoeic keratosis.

The Vas-Q Pulsed Dye Laser treats red marks such as spider naevi, telangiectasia, rosacea, portwine stain (capillary malformation), cherry angioma, red scars, segmental haemangioma.

WHY WOULD I WANT A LASER TREATMENT?

Both lasers are each designed to treat different concerns safely and effectively — helping you achieve smoother, clearer, and more confident skin. Whether you’re looking to refresh your complexion, remove unwanted marks, or address areas of redness, our advanced laser treatments offer precision results with minimal downtime.

Laser treatments can help to:

  • Improve acne scarring and uneven skin texture
  • Remove skin tags, moles, or other small irregularities
  • Fade birthmarks, redness, and spider veins
  • Correct uneven skin tone or discolouration
  • Stimulate collagen production for firmer, more youthful-looking skin

Each treatment is carefully tailored to your skin type and concern — the Fractional CO₂ Laser works to resurface and rejuvenate, while the Vas-Q Laser targets redness and vascular concerns to restore balance and clarity.

Say Goodbye to Redness and Birthmarks with Pulsed Dye Laser

Red marks on the skin, from small vessels like telangiectasia to more noticeable birthmarks, can be frustrating and draw unwanted attention. Some larger red marks can even feel hot or uncomfortable. Our Pulsed Dye Laser (PDL) treatment offers an effective solution, helping to reduce redness and restore smoother, clearer skin.

For conditions such as Port-wine stains (capillary malformations), early laser treatment can prevent them from thickening or developing blood blisters—current medical evidence suggests that laser-treated areas are less likely to progress in this way.

Our expert team ensures safe and effective results for all skin types, using careful test patching to minimise side effects. With PDL, you can achieve noticeable improvements in redness, whether from birthmarks or smaller vascular concerns, helping you feel more confident in your skin.

Vascular Birthmark Treatments for Babies

At The Grange Clinic, we treat babies with vascular birthmarks, including port-wine stains and haemangiomas. While most birthmarks are harmless, some can worsen over time. Our specialists provide tailored treatment plans using laser therapy or medication, always prioritising your baby’s comfort and safety.

We are the only cosmetic clinic in the UK (outside Alder Hey and GOSH) to treat children’s birthmarks with the VasQ laser. This advanced laser precisely targets problem vessels while protecting healthy skin, helping improve appearance and confidence safely for patients of all ages.
