Guides

Guides and insights

Written by Kim Armstrong, Registered Nurse and Independent Prescriber. These guides cover the questions patients ask most often, including cost, suitability and what to expect.

Understanding your skin and veins

These guides are general information, not medical advice. They cannot replace a consultation with a clinician who knows your medical history.

Editorial standards

About these guides

All guides are written by Kim Armstrong and reviewed at least annually. Clinical statements are referenced to NHS, NICE, British Association of Dermatologists or peer-reviewed sources, and each article shows the date it was last reviewed.

That review date is on the page rather than buried in the markup, because a clinical guide that has not been looked at in three years is worth reading differently from one checked last month.
