Skin Type Consultation
The consultation you receive from us at the time of your first visit
will include a short questionnaire which will help us determine
your skin type. It is very important to establish your skin type
as this highlights the way our body responds to UV. Skin Types are
categorised as follows
Skin Type 1: Very Sensitive Skin
Definition: Typically red/blond hair, blue/green eyes, very pale
skin.
Skin Type 2: Sensitive Skin
Definition: Typically fair to light brown hair, blue/green/grey
eyes, light to medium skin.
Skin Type 3: Normal Skin Sensitivity
Definition: Typically medium to olive skin, medium to brown hair,
grey/brown eyes.
Skin Type 4: Skin very well resistant to the
sun
Definition: Typically dark olive to light brown skin, dark eyes
and dark hair.
Skin Types 5 and 6: Naturally tanned/dark skin
Definition: Typically dark hair, eyes and skin.
