She’d been living with a reminder of an old dog bite since childhood.

The injury healed, but it left more than a scar. It had left her lip uneven — part of it rebuilt years ago using tissue from inside her cheek, which meant the colour, texture and shape were never quite the same again

It healed, but it never "felt" like her. The texture was different, the shape off-balance — and every time she looked in the mirror, that’s all she could see. For years, she felt self-conscious about it.
Photos, lipstick, even smiling — it all reminded her that her lips no longer looked symmetrical, and the area that had been repaired just didn’t blend naturally with the rest

She’d seen multiple practitioners over the years, but because of the scar tissue, no one wanted to touch it. everyone told her the same thing: it was too risky, too unpredictable.

Each “no” chipped away at her confidence a little more. She started to believe it was something she just had to live with.

After following my posts for a while, she decided to get one last opinion —Together, we talked through her history, examined the tissue, and this time, came up with a slow, careful plan - together.

We began by treating the scar itself — using microneedling and polynucleotides to soften, stimulate healing and improve the quality of the repaired skin.

Only once the tissue was healthy and flexible again and had healed beautifully, did we look at restoring balance, definition and shape with dermal filler

It wasn’t a “one appointment” journey — but it was absolutely worth it.

The result is natural, soft and perfectly in harmony with her features.

She left smiling (and crying a little too).

After years of feeling self-conscious, she finally felt like herself again.

When you’re dealing with old injuries or complex scarring, this is where experience really matters.

In the right hands, it’s not just about adding filler — it’s about understanding tissue, healing, and rebuilding confidence from the inside out. 🤍

If you’ve been told “no” before or feel unsure about your lips, don’t give up.
DM me to book a consultation and let’s see what’s possible — every lip deserves a second chance. ✨

Lucky for you guys I’m a wizard with a needle and always ready to wave magic wand to sort out the mess poor practitioners leave behind.

I just wish my wizardry wasn’t needed quite so often 😩

Your‎ vibe‎ attracts‎ your‎ tribe.
⁣
⁣I’m‎ not‎ sure‎ how‎ else‎ to‎ explain‎ it,‎ but‎ I actually really‎ like‎ my‎ clients. Every single one. Men, women, all walks of life... you all have a story.

⁣ And when you sit in my chair, it's never just about filler or skin boosters. It's about that moment you exhale when I say, "Don't worry, I get it. I see you."

⁣It’s‎ easy.‎ It’s‎ honest.‎ Its real, there’s ‎ no‎ performance,‎ no‎ pressure. We‎ get‎ on.‎ We‎ laugh.‎ We‎ talk‎ about‎ kids, work and life‎ drama while‎ I‎ quietly‎ erase‎ a‎ decade‎ from‎ your‎ face.
⁣
⁣Because‎ the‎ truth‎ is,‎ this‎ job’s‎ not‎ just‎ about‎ filler‎ or‎ Botox.‎ It’s‎ about‎ knowing‎ when‎ to‎ stop.

⁣It’s‎ about‎ trust‎, me‎ telling‎ you‎ when‎ something’s‎ unnecessary,‎ and‎ you‎ knowing‎ that’s‎ exactly‎ why‎ you‎ booked‎ with‎ me‎ in‎ the‎ first‎ place.
⁣
⁣Sometimes‎ clients‎ say,‎ “I‎ feel‎ like‎ I’ve‎ known‎ you‎ for‎ ages,”‎ and‎ honestly,‎ that’s‎ the‎ best‎ compliment. I'm the non-judgemental, problem-solving, free-therapy injector — and I'm here for it.

⁣Because‎ that’s‎ exactly‎ how‎ it‎ should‎ feel‎ relaxed,‎ safe, human,‎ and‎ never‎ like‎ a‎ sales‎ pitch‎ with‎ a‎ syringe.
⁣
⁣The‎ people‎ who‎ find‎ their‎ way‎ here‎ are‎ my‎ kind‎ of‎ people.‎ No‎ drama.‎ No‎ extremes.

⁣You‎ just‎ want‎ to‎ look‎ better‎ without‎ anyone‎ quite‎ knowing‎ why.
⁣
⁣So‎ if‎ you’ve‎ been‎ wondering‎ whether‎ I’m‎ “your‎ kind‎ of‎ injector”…‎ you’ll‎ probably‎ know‎ just‎ from‎ reading‎ this.
⁣
⁣If‎ you‎ want‎ someone‎ calm,‎ straight-talking‎ and‎ quietly‎ obsessive‎ about‎ natural‎ results‎, you’ve found her

The most destructive habit I see in women isn’t sugar, isn’t wine, isn’t even the sun.

It’s this: you keep putting yourself last.

You’ll drag yourself out of bed for school runs.

Work like a lunatic to keep everyone else happy.

Answer your friends messages at midnight because “they need me.”

But when it comes to booking the one thing that would actually make you feel good in your own skin?

Suddenly you’ve got a list of excuses as long as your arm.

👉 “Maybe after Christmas.”
👉 “When I’ve lost a bit of weight.”
👉 “When life isn’t so stressful.”

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: life is always stressful.

The kids are always going to need you.

The house, the job, the chaos — it’s not going anywhere.

And while you’re waiting for the perfect moment, lines get deeper.

Skin gets looser.

Confidence quietly slips away.

Meanwhile, the women who stopped fannying around and booked?

They’re glowing.
They’re lifted.

They walk into a room and look alive again — while you’re still standing in the mirror pulling your face back with your hands saying, “one day.”

And don’t kid yourself that sacrificing your own needs is noble.

Your family doesn’t want the run-down, grey, apologetic version of you.

They want the woman who walks tall. Who feels confident.
Who actually likes what she sees staring back at her.

That woman only shows up when you stop putting yourself last.

So here it is:

👉 Book the damn appointment.
👉 Stop making excuses.
👉 Stop waiting for later.

Later is a lie.

Nothing reminds you you’re ageing faster than club lighting.

Not that I go clubbing much anymore – unless you count Tesco on a Friday night.

But last night, I went “out-out”

Thought I looked fabulous. Hair curled, lashes on, strut in full swing.

Then I hit the toilets.

And the mirror under those lights? Lord have mercy.

Every pore magnified.

Wrinkles I swear had only just arrived already booking a permanent stay.
Foundation sitting intros lines l like polyfilla on cracked plaster.

My filler had shifted south in solidarity with gravity.

I looked less “hot girl summer” and more “auntie who’s had a hard paper round.”

It’s cruel. They should replace those lights with candlelight.

Everyone looks ten years younger in candlelight. I’d sign a petition tomorrow.

If bad bathroom lighting is ageing you faster than life itself, it’s time to fight back, let us show you a softer reflection. Book your consultation today and step back into candlelight confidence – no petition required

Ok, so don't all groan and come at me in the comments that's its miles off yet, it's really not. 12 weeks to be exact (okay so less 1 day but still!)

We know how life gets super busy and this will fly round faster than Santa in an episode of dancing on Ice.

M&S are already underway with the Christmas food collection slots, Maria is on defrost and the Quality Street are on bulk buy offers!

But lets not forget the most important bit, you!

The last effective date for your anti wrinkle injections is Saturday 6th December, that gives enough time to get your top up completed on the 20th December before we close. Any filler treatments need to be completed by the 17th at the latest to allow for healing so they are all settled ready to kiss under the mistletoe!

Please don't treat your Christmas treatments like most men treat Christmas shopping and leave it till the last minute, no one likes fluffy dice or toilet seat covers, and no one likes wrinkles either so get booked in to avoid disappointment.

No one is sitting round the Christmas table with wrinkles, not on my watch!!

“Meet‎ the‎ most‎ underrated‎ feature‎ in‎ facial‎ balancing:‎ the‎ chin.”
⁣
⁣When‎ most‎ people‎ think‎ about‎ facial‎ filler,‎ they‎ think‎ cheeks,‎ lips,‎ maybe‎ a‎ jawline.
⁣But‎ the‎ chin?‎ It’s‎ the‎ quiet‎ overachiever.
⁣
⁣A‎ balanced‎ chin‎ can‎ completely‎ change‎ how‎ the‎ entire‎ face‎ looks‎ softening‎ profiles,‎ enhancing jawlines, reducing appearance of the dreaded double chin and generally creating‎ better‎ proportions. Bringing‎ harmony‎ to‎ features‎ without‎ anyone‎ quite‎ knowing‎ why.‎ 🤔

That’s‎ because‎ faces‎ are‎ subconsciously‎ judged‎ by‎ balance.‎ We‎ all‎ respond‎ to‎ the‎ golden‎ ratio,‎ the‎ mathematical‎ proportions‎ that‎ make‎ a‎ face‎ look‎ “right”‎ and‎ when‎ the‎ lower‎ third‎ is‎ under-projected,‎ it‎ can‎ throw‎ everything‎ off.
⁣
⁣One‎ of‎ the‎ key‎ things‎ I‎ look‎ at‎ is‎ the‎ rickets‎ line‎ a‎ clinical‎ assessment‎ of‎ how‎ your‎ chin‎ lines‎ up‎ in‎ profile.‎ If‎ the‎ chin‎ sits‎ too‎ far‎ back,‎ the‎ face‎ can‎ appear‎ rounder,‎ less‎ defined,‎ and‎ often‎ heavier‎ in‎ the‎ lower‎ half.

I can't tell you how many times a patient walks in to my clinic and states they need their double chin fat dissolving, and 9 times out of 10 my reply is the the issue isn't too much fat under the chin, its just a lack of chin projection itself.
⁣
⁣For‎ me,‎ this‎ one’s‎ personal.‎ I‎ naturally‎ have‎ a‎ weak‎ chin‎, which has tested my confidence over the years by causing the appearance of a double chin, every time someone takes a photo of me! Over the years I have carefully‎ build‎ it‎ up‎ with‎ subtle‎ tweaks.‎ But‎ the‎ difference‎ it‎ makes‎ is‎ huge!

It’s‎ not‎ about‎ changing‎ who‎ you‎ are‎ it’s‎ about‎ restoring‎ balance‎ and‎ creating‎ a‎ profile‎ that‎ feels‎ right,‎ even‎ if‎ you‎ can’t‎ put‎ your‎ finger‎ on‎ why.
⁣
⁣It’s‎ proof‎ that‎ small,‎ precise‎ changes‎ in‎ the‎ right‎ place‎ can‎ deliver‎ big‎ results‎ without‎ ever‎ looking‎ “done.”

There are moments in this job where you’re reminded it isn’t just about needles, products, or results.

It’s about trust.

And trust sometimes means saying no.

I’ll never forget the first time I declined a treatment.

A woman arrived certain of what she wanted. She’d seen it online, heard a friend rave about it. But as we spoke, I saw the truth in her eyes. This wasn’t really about the treatment. It was about pressure.

Fear.
Trying to fix something deeper than her skin.

Technically, yes — I could have gone ahead.

But ethically? I couldn’t.

I explained gently that I didn’t believe the treatment was right for her at that time. That sometimes the kindest step isn’t an injection — it’s pressing pause.
Was it awkward my side? Absolutely.

But when she left, I knew I’d done the right thing.

Because my role isn’t to sell a dream.

It’s to protect, to guide, to do what’s in someone’s best interest — even if it means turning them away.

And over the years, I’ve done it many times.

Because the truth is, aesthetics isn’t about saying yes to every request. It’s about saying yes only when it’s safe, responsible, and aligned with the person in front of you.

Sometimes the most caring answer I can give as a practitioner is, “Not today.”
