How do I know which treatment is right for my skin?
2
You do not need to decide this on your own. Every client begins with a comprehensive skin consultation where we assess your skin type, skin condition, concerns, lifestyle and goals. From this, we create a personalised treatment plan designed to deliver long-term skin health and visible results. We focus on what your skin truly needs, not what is trending or one-size-fits-all.
What makes you different?
3
We are a nurse-led skin clinic based in Lichfield, serving clients from across Staffordshire and the West Midlands. This means your skin is treated with a strong foundation in medical knowledge, safety and evidence-based practice. We take a long-term, educational approach to skin health rather than offering quick fixes. Every treatment is bespoke, every recommendation is purposeful, and we prioritise results that are sustainable. We also place strong emphasis on skin education, so you understand your skin and feel confident in your treatment journey.
What can I expect during a consultation?
4
During your consultation at our Lichfield skin clinic, we carry out an in-depth analysis of your skin. We assess how your skin looks and how it feels, alongside factors such as hydration levels, sensitivity, breakouts, pigmentation, ageing concerns and barrier health. We will also discuss your medical history, current skincare, lifestyle and future skin goals. From this, we design a tailored treatment and homecare plan to support optimal results.
How many treatments will I need?
5
This depends on your individual skin concerns and goals. Some clients may see improvements after one treatment, while others will benefit from a structured course of treatments. Skin concerns such as acne, scarring, pigmentation and ageing often require a series of treatments combined with correct homecare. We will always be transparent and guide you on realistic expectations during your consultation.
Do you offer homecare products?
6
Yes. We retail medical-grade skincare that is carefully selected to support and enhance your in-clinic treatments. Homecare is a vital part of achieving and maintaining results, and all products are recommended based on your skin’s needs following a professional consultation.
