Skin Prick Testing
Small drops of selected allergen extracts are placed on the skin and gently pricked. A qualified clinician reads the response alongside your medical history.
Science
Allergy symptoms can have overlapping causes. Clinic-based skin prick testing helps allergy doctors evaluate relevant trigger areas before recommending personalised management.

Skin responses are measured during the clinic appointment. A response indicates sensitisation for clinical interpretation, not a diagnosis by itself.
Where appropriate, doctor-prescribed drops use measured allergen extracts over time to support a change in immune response.
It shows skin sensitisation to selected allergens. A qualified clinician interprets the measured response together with symptoms and medical history; the test alone is not a diagnosis.
Sublingual immunotherapy, or SLIT, uses doctor-prescribed allergen extracts under the tongue over time. Suitability and dosing require clinical evaluation and supervision.
Skin responses are commonly observed and measured during the clinic appointment, often after approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
The Immuniq allergy quiz is an informational screening assessment. Its result can help structure a clinical conversation but does not diagnose an allergy.
