When your skin flares up have that honest conversation with yourself…
Are you performing your skincare routine daily? Cleansing your skin mindfully? Using the correct products? Are you more stressed than usual? Mood changes? Eating junk food? Not sleeping enough? Wearing cosmetic makeup often? Medical changes? Big lifestyle changes?
Firstly we need to figure out why your skin is behaving this way, understanding your skin will be the base of your treatment plan.
Medical grade skin treatments will help but internal health is going to compliment your facials to enhance skin health & keep the results rolling.
The six principle functions of the skin are protection, sensation, heat regulation, excretion, secretion, and absorption. Let’s get the skin thriving not surviving ✌🏽

Hyaluronic acid is a key molecule that is naturally present in the human body, and it is especially abundant in the skin, joints, and eyes.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It has the ability to retain moisture, which makes it an effective moisturiser for the skin - preserving skin health and youth.
There are many products available that contain hyaluronic acid, including creams, serums, and gels. To use hyaluronic acid, you can follow these steps:
1 Cleanse your skin: Begin by cleansing your skin with a gentle balanced cleanser. This will help to remove any dirt, oil, or makeup that may be on your skin. The second cleanse should be your treatment cleanse to correct concerns.
2 Use a hydrating mist spray to dampen the skin which will add vitamins and minerals. Slightly moist skin will attract the hyaluronic acid resulting in good absorption.
3 Apply hyaluronic acid: Take a small amount of the product containing hyaluronic acid massage the product into your skin. Gently work the product into your skin until it is fully absorbed.
4 Follow with other skincare products: After applying hyaluronic acid, you can follow up with other skincare products, such as a serum or moisturiser.
**It’s important to note that everyone's skin is different, so it's a good idea to test out a small patch of skin before using a new product on your entire face. Additionally, be sure to use products that are suitable for your skin type**
FACT

The Super Hydrator can hold 1,000x its weight in water.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s going to be a busy rest of the year ✨ regular clients schedule 1-2 facials in advance if possible & anyone new thinking of starting their skin journey “book now” for your consultation ✅
Peel season is always the busiest time of year so if you’re pre booking appointments try to avoid re-arranging❌
To pre book weekends in November & December message me directly 👋
Try not to leave your skincare until the last drop💧do a 2 weekly check of your skincare bottles & message me to put aside your products, I don’t mind last minute orders but sometimes it may not be in stock 😅
See you all soon ✌🏽
INFLAMMATORY ACNE 💥
Sore, tender to touch, lumpy, painful & persistent.
How to reduce it ✅
• Professional grade skincare
• LED blue light therapy 2-3 times weekly
• Professional skin treatment 4 weekly
• Balancing hormones
• Managing stress
• Diet | Vitamins | Water intake
• Medical coverage if needed
DISCLAIMER
**There is no cure to acne but we can improve, manage & maintain the condition**
**Skin purging is part of the process, be patient & 100% compliant for best results**
The more we stress about the process, our skin gets worse. Acne is caused by hormones + stress so start to look at ways to manage those alongside your facial treatments.
“BOOK NOW” to discuss your concerns.
The light source emits photons which are absorbed in the mitochondria and cell membranes. This process causes an elevation in adenosine triphosphate synthesis which causes a cascade of metabolic events resulting in beneficial biochemical and cellular changes.
💙❤️
Blue LED light therapy emits specific, clinically-proven wavelengths of light to trigger an all-natural effect in human tissue and kill the acne-causing bacteria. Celluma devices emit blue and red simultaneously which is a benefit over devices which emit only blue light. While blue light is busy killing the acne causing bacteria, red LED light helps decrease the inflammation associated with the acne lesions and improve skin tone, texture, and clarity from the inside out.
The perfect stop over between facial treatments if your acne has flared up or your skin feels irritated ✨
For some clients facials are just one-off, luxury treatments. But for many clients, facials are therapies to reduce pre-existing, long standing skin conditions.
Countless clients come to me having tried and tested all the latest treatments, only to be disappointed by their results and on the verge of giving up. Luckily, I like a challenge. There is no magic bullet; this is a long term plan, characterised by careful planning, lifestyle changes, and most importantly, your own commitment.
My clients know that my skincare plan is bespoke, result driven and evidence based, using only the highest grade products to help you power through those bad skin days we all have. Slow and steady ensures effective results, minimal downtime, and avoidance of side effects. Skin beauty equals skin health, and this is my number one priority.
We all have different expectations of our skincare journey, so it’s important you discuss these with your practitioner early and often, so that you can get the most out of your treatment.
So few of us are blessed with truly perfect skin, but that doesn’t mean you can’t improve it significantly. Just like with any skill, you need a good coach for maximum benefit.

Peel season is the time to address skin concerns such as breakouts, pigmentation, dullness, textural concerns & first signs of ageing. 🪄
Skin prep will need to start 2-4 weeks pre peel treatment & time frame between peels will be suggested. Skin types that have barrier impairment will need to be prepped for 6-8 weeks to ensure the skin is stable, healthy & ready to treat with peels.

SWIPE for AFTERCARE refresher & read CAPTION.
I cannot stress how important following your aftercare is when receiving a service, it’s in your best interest to read each point carefully and ask questions if you’re unsure about anything. No question is a silly question.
Your practitioner can follow protocol in the treatment room and be the most skilled practitioner but if the aftercare isn’t followed you could end up with prolonged side effects. People can get confused between post treatment side effects and skin reactions so
I send my clients a form pre / post treatment to read & sign, I go through it verbally to ensure my client fully understands because I want them to have the best outcome & result.
From working in clinics and at the hub I have seen post treatment reactions and I immediately know when aftercare has not been followed. If it’s a skin reaction I suggest seeking medical advice or going to a&e (very rare anyone will ever have to do this) Luckily I have sensible clients that check in with me, ask questions & send me photos if they’re unsure but I want to put the message out there that it is your responsibility to follow the aftercare.
Aesthetic facials are results driven but part of the process is the aftercare which is using the correct homecare regimen, following the aftercare sent to you, being involved in the journey of healing the skin.
At times post treatment reactions can be prolonged due to weather, hormones, illness etc but this is something your practitioner can help you with.
Always disclose all allergies, or if you have a reactive skin type. Ask questions if you’re unsure & don’t panic as there is help for unwanted side effects but they can be avoided.
Just because you didn’t react negatively once doesn’t mean you won’t the next time if aftercare is not followed. This isn’t to scare anyone but to be realistic about the effects and for everyone to be well informed on steps to take ✅

A day in the life of a facialist 🪄
I’m not going to be the facialist for everyone and that’s okay! But for the right person, I’m the right facialist 💯
If you’re struggling to find your facialist talk about your skin goals from the beginning, expertise matters but it’s also a vibe - a feeling that you’re in good hands ✌🏽
Acne is such a persistent skin disease that can take months / years to control but that feeling once it’s improved and we can finally treat the scarring is the best! 💖
✨✨✨
Sometimes the skin can go backwards with another relapse of acne but remember the skin is a clever organ that can self heal so with a little help from your Facialist we can perform some skin magic 🪄
You will require multiple DermaPen sessions before seeing real results ✅
You will be prepped with a prescribed regime for pre /post needling care ✅
Recovery time will vary person to person - be patient ✅
Treatment will reduce & soften scarring not remove scarring - realistic approach ✅
