Patch / sensitivity tests Consent & medical history Pigment / jewellery batch traceability Sterilisation Hygiene & infection control Sharps / clinical waste Training & registration Incidents Before / after photos
Why operators upgrade to Pro
Keep every record
Free keeps your last 90 days. Your patch-test and consent history — your defence in a claim — never disappears on Pro.
Before/after photos
Store treatment photos securely (Pro) for medico-legal evidence and portfolio, with explicit client consent.
Patch-test reminders
Get emailed before a client's patch test expires so you never book a pigment treatment without a valid test.
Frequently asked questions
- Do piercers and SPMU artists legally need to keep records in the UK?

- Is SkinReady a replacement for my insurance or legal advice?
- No. SkinReady is record-keeping software that helps you stay inspection-ready and keep the patch-test, consent and batch records that protect you in a reaction claim. It is not legal or medical advice.
- What does it cost?
- Free to start with all sections and your last 90 days of records. Pro is £4.99/month or £39/year for unlimited history, before/after photo storage, patch-test reminders and branded report export.
