The treatment

High Frequency Therapy: how it works

High-frequency therapy delivers a mild electrical current to the skin or scalp via a glass electrode. This creates oxygenating and antibacterial effects at the surface alongside gentle warmth. At The London Road Clinic it is used to calm active breakouts, reduce surface bacteria and support scalp vitality, typically as part of a broader facial protocol that includes cleansing, massage and targeted masks.

A quick add-on, or a short course

The clinic is at 65 London Road, Newark-on-Trent, NG24 1RZ, with free parking at the front.

This is often added to another treatment rather than booked alone, and where it is used on its own a short course is usual. Appointments are brief either way.

With the A1 and A46 both running through Newark, the clinic is easy to reach from Balderton, Farndon and Southwell, from Bingham, East Bridgford and the Vale of Belvoir, and from West Bridgford, Melton Mowbray and Sleaford. If you are travelling any distance it makes sense to pair this with something else in the same visit, which we can arrange when you book.

There is nothing to recover from, so you can go straight back to your day.

Further reading: sensitive skin and the skin barrier. Background on the concern: acne and breakouts.

We also have pages for patients who live near Grantham and Southwell.
