Very nice premises, it doesn't feel like a hospital and you don't get offered their nice coffee in the NHS! Unfortunately I had an allergic reaction to the surgical tape (not the steri-strips) which left skin blisters but I left them alone to heal and the scars can barely be seen now, 10 weeks later. I don't know if I had taken the bandages off sooner if it would have helped. The nurse said keep them on for a week, the doctor said two days in an email I read on day 4, but I think there was already an issue. However, the procedure itself was very successful, and I needed minimal treatment in the follow up just to tidy up, which is usual. All the staff were lovely, very friendly, putting me at ease.
