Serene Beauty Clinic

Why do my clients keep coming back month after month?

Do I do amazing facials for skin concerns yes I do? However it’s all in the way I make them feel. That one hole to switch off forget about the world outside and unwind. To just be present in that moment. Forget all the stress, unwind and just take a moment for you.

No it’s not selfish it’s really needed. We just always do too much for everyone else. I’m here to help you take back the moments that you need.

This is the ultimate hour of calm or two hours you decide …

Everything I do I’m my treatment room is focused on you. Before you even enter my room I have everything ready for you. Low lighting soft warm lights, the comfiest cloud bed, warm blankets and soft towels.

In today’s world women are expected to do more than ever. We work and we work in our house, we bring up children, we study, we try and be the best at everything. Who is looking after us ?

Sometimes that moment you have with me that hour is all you might have had that month. A moment to yourself to reflect and enjoy a girls chat, to put the world to rights. A confidential space to share how you’re feeling. So it’s important to me that you feel safe. The way I do this is through my touch.

Even if you’re having a facial or skin peel. Every touch feels special, every minute counts. The skin peel starts with a luxury oil cleanse followed by a deeper cleanse. You deserve to feel special because you are.

I’m creating a sanctuary for women to take back some time for themselves and truly and deeply feel like themselves again. In those moments I hope to make you feel special and to forget about your long list of to do items and just be present in the moment with me.

With over 18 years experience I have come to realise that I hold a special magical way of making people feel amazing with touch. I feel like I lost myself somewhere along the way as this is how I felt when I first started and I’ve found it again this last 2 years. I really want to share this with you.

I’m looking forward to helping you on your skin journey. I offer video call meetings for a first appointment so that you can get to know me first. Get an idea of who I am and how I work.

The pen is only a tool

When choosing microneedling, it’s easy to choose the cheaper or choose the one who has a £2000 pen as you think it will be better while your pocket is £200 lighter.

But the real value is in everything around the treatment:

• Practitioner training( level 4 training in my experience)
• Skin assessment
• Contraindication screening
• Treatment planning
• Correct technique and needle depth
• Infection control
• Appropriate products
• Aftercare and follow-up

Microneedling isn’t just about moving a pen across the skin. It’s a professional skin treatment that needs knowledge, skill and responsibility.

This along with medical grade serums it’s why it’s different at Serene. I’m not saying there is anything wrong with a £2000 pen but my results speak volumes as I look at a clients skin choose a serum, choose depth and speed according to their skin and do all the above.

Infection control is everything don’t go to anyone who has blankets on the bed this treatment breaks the skin and should be treated in the same way as injections.

Peptides or ceramides… which one does your skin actually need?

I get asked about ingredients like peptides all the time, but there’s another ingredient I think is hugely underrated — ceramides.

And they actually do very different jobs.

Ceramides are about your skin barrier.
Think of them like the cement between the bricks of your skin cells. They help keep moisture in and irritants out.

So if your skin is dry, tight, sensitive, red or easily irritated, I’m thinking about the barrier first — and ceramides can be really important.

Peptides are different.
They’re small chains of amino acids that can act as messengers in the skin, helping support processes involved in things like collagen and elastin.

So when we’re talking about firmness, fine lines and skin ageing, peptides can be a really useful ingredient.

But here’s the bit I really want you to remember…

You don’t necessarily have to choose between them.

For skin over 35, I often want to see both — because there’s no point throwing lots of anti-ageing ingredients at skin when the barrier is struggling.

Healthy skin first. Then we can work on rejuvenating it.

And that’s exactly why your skincare needs to be personalised to your skin
