How to Diagnose Your Skin Type

The first but definitely not the last facial! I originally booked in for microneedling but due to an acne flare up and a conversation Lauren helped me navigate which treatment would be best for my skin, we opted for the Algae Peel which after just 24 hours I’m already seeing the benefits! Lauren talked me through what to expect from this facial and made sure throughout that I was comfortable and talked me through the next steps. It was a little tingly during the actual facial however it’s only for a couple of minutes and the results after just 1 day, my skin is smoother, pores have visibly reduced, and even acne scarring has faded, I’ve already booked in for my next treatment and can’t wait to see the results after that! I’ve always struggled with my skin but the tips that Lauren has given me I can’t wait to try. Even just leaving the house today with no makeup now that my skin has calmed down after being red the first 24 hours I already feel more confident in.

Lauren was absolutely amazing and super reassuring when I went for a facial, she advised me with which facial would be best for my skin type and guided me through what she was doing the whole time and was extremely relaxing! I would highly recommend Lauren for any skin treatments she was super chatty, friendly and provided me with lots of advice for my skin. It was overall a lovely experience ????

I can’t recommend Lauren highly enough. Over the years, I’ve had treatments and procedures from fantastic facialists, medical aestheticians, skincare experts, permanent make-up artists, and laser specialists - but, since finding The Skinician, Lauren is 100% my ‘go to’. I have been undergoing sessions with Lauren for the removal of PMU lip blush liner and the results are incredible. This is a tricky procedure that very few professionals have the confidence to tackle, let alone the competence to achieve such a successful result. I’m equally thrilled with the results from only one session of PMU eyebrow removal and can’t wait to be able to get new - better - brows micro bladed by Lauren. In terms of skincare, the treatment I can’t stop raving about is The Skinician’s algae face peel. It’s chemical free, yet is able to penetrate the deep layers of the skin in a way that no other peel does. I’ve just had my second peel, of a course of three, and my skin already looks and feels like years of damage and ageing have ‘magically’ been removed. Most importantly of all, Lauren is absolutely lovely. If you’re nervous, she will instantly put you at ease. She’ll be very honest in her advice about what you will and won’t benefit from and she’ll work at your pace, to achieve the results you want. She’ll never try to ‘sell’ or suggest something you won’t benefit from. Her salon is beautiful and you’ll always come away feeling great. ❤️
