Your Comfort

Comfort & Pain Relief

Comfort is planned into every treatment here, not added as an afterthought. Everyone’s tolerance to pain is different, so before anything begins, Dr. Sarai talks through how you feel about discomfort and builds the answer into your plan.

The Approach

Planned
with you

Some treatments at the clinic are gentle enough to need nothing at all; others involve moments of heat, cold or a brief sting. What matters is that none of it is left to chance. There is no single, fixed comfort option per treatment: just like the treatment itself, the approach to pain relief takes into account your own tolerance and your thoughts on what would make you comfortable.

The options below can be used on their own or combined. Dr. Sarai will recommend what suits the treatment you are having and the way you would like the appointment to feel.

Four Ways We Help

The options

  • Numbing cream

    For certain procedures, a medical numbing cream is applied and left to work for at least 30 minutes before treatment begins. By the time the treatment starts, the area has had time to become properly numb.

  • Dental blocks

    As a medical physician, Dr. Sarai can provide the same small local anesthetic injection you would receive at the dentist. A dental block numbs the region rather than just the surface, which can be particularly beneficial for laser treatments around the mouth.

  • Nitrous oxide

    Nitrous oxide, better known as laughing gas, is available during treatments. It can take the edge off while you stay fully awake, and Dr. Sarai will discuss whether it suits your appointment.

  • Zimmer Cryo 6

    The Zimmer Cryo 6 is a cooling device that directs a stream of chilled air over the skin while the treatment is delivered. Cooling the skin this way can ease discomfort as the session goes on, so it works alongside the treatment rather than only before it.

None of this is decided without you. At your consultation, you and Dr. Sarai agree on a comfort plan alongside the treatment plan itself, and it can be adjusted on the day if you would like more.
