Pre-Care
Avoid sun exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight for 24 to 48 hours before your appointment. No sunbeds or active tan, your treatment may be refused if your skin is too sun-exposed.
Pause active skincare: Stop using retinoids, acids (AHAs/BHAs), scrubs, and vitamin C for 5 to 7 days beforehand to prevent irritation.
Hold off on blood thinners: Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E for a few days unless prescribed, as they can increase bruising.
Wait if your skin is irritated: Postpone treatment if you have active acne, open wounds, cold sores, or any skin infections in the area.
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days before your appointment to support healing and better results.
Avoid alcohol: Skip alcohol for at least 24 hours prior as it can increase sensitivity and bruising.
No waxing or hair removal creams: Avoid these on the treatment area for 5 to 7 days before your appointment.
Come with clean skin: Arrive with a freshly cleansed face and no makeup, moisturiser, sunscreen, or skincare products.
Wait after other treatments: Wait at least 14 days after anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, or other aesthetic treatments. Let your practitioner know if you’ve had anything recently, as your appointment may need to be rescheduled.
Post-Care
Avoid touching your face: Keep your hands off the treated area to prevent irritation or infection, especially in the first few hours.
No makeup or skincare: Avoid makeup and all skincare products (except what your practitioner provides or recommends) for at least 24 hours.
Skip active ingredients: Do not use retinoids, acids (like AHAs/BHAs), vitamin C, or exfoliants for 7 days post-treatment.
Stay out of the sun: Avoid direct sun exposure for at least a week. Use a high SPF once your practitioner says it’s safe to apply sunscreen again.
Avoid heat and sweating: No hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, or intense workouts for 24 to 48 hours, as heat can worsen inflammation.
Don’t pick or peel: If your skin flakes or peels, let it come off naturally. Picking can lead to scarring or infection.
Use gentle products: Stick to a mild cleanser, the aftercare recovery balm provided, and a plain moisturiser unless otherwise advised by your practitioner.
Keep skin hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support healing from the inside out.
Avoid alcohol: It can dehydrate your skin and increase inflammation, so it’s best to skip it for at least 24 hours.
Sleep on a clean pillowcase: Change your pillowcase the night of your treatment and avoid sleeping face-down.

EXCELLENT Based on 35 reviews Helen Hutt2025-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been a client of Emma’s for 6 months, and I enjoy the treatments with her: she has taught me to take care of my skin. Emma is brilliant, professional and incredibly knowledgeable. I trust and recommend Emma wholeheartedly. Anne Wilson2025-05-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started having skin treatments with Emma around 18 months ago and the condition of my skin has dramatically improved. Emma is incredibly knowledgeable and professional and a pleasure to visit. If I had known as an acne ridden teenager that my skin could look like this, it would have given me hope. Tiffany Joy2025-04-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently visited Emma for a treatment and couldn’t be happier with the results. She dissolved my lips, added subtle chin filler, and also removed my Campbell de Morgan spots. Her attention to detail and calm, professional approach instantly made me feel at ease. Emma has a real wealth of knowledge and is clearly passionate about what she does. She’s incredibly attentive and always puts her clients’ welfare first—everything was explained thoroughly, and I felt in such safe hands throughout. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for expert care and beautifully natural results! Emily Cairns2025-04-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing professional and all round awesome human being. My go-to for all skin care questions. And my 6 weekly vitamin B shot. Thanks Emma! Carley Stone2025-04-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma is amazing and makes you feel really at ease. She knows exactly what treatment is best for your skin and recommends the best products to use. I am so happy with my skin and how it looks! Del “Somerset83” Ellis2025-03-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently started having treatments with Emma through a friend recommendation & I can not speak more highly of her & her abilities. Emma knows her stuff & is highly professional & supportive in her approach. She listens to you. I've battled with skin concerns & issues with acne scarring/blemishes/pigmentation for years. Knocking my confidence. My skin has honestly never looked & felt so good through her advice & treatments. I've also just had my Botox (3 areas) done with Emma for the first time after being really disappointed for the last x3 occasions with a very popular online social media Aesthetics company. The difference is insane. I literally wouldn't go anywhere else for it now. Emma is kind, caring & extremely knowledgeable. She is an absolute gem of a find. If you're thinking of using her for a treatment then do it. You will not be disappointed & her results show that you get what you pay for. Avoid the targeting social media companies offering cheaper deals on Botox. There's a reason they cost less than everywhere else. You get what you pay for with Aesthetics. I literally cannot wait for my next treatment with her. The Vampire facial. Thank you Emma ❤️ Love Lifestyle2025-03-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Jessie R2024-12-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma is extremely passionate, knowledgeable and wonderful. She took the time to talk through the treatment putting my mind instantly at ease and made sure I was comfortable throughout. She truly wants the best results for you and will continue with advice or treatment until you get that result. Could not recommend Emma more!!! Natasha Beer2024-11-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma is amazing at what she does, she’s very professional and makes you feel at ease when having treatment. I went to Emma with what felt like dull skin, she recommended what I needed and what I would benefit from. I’ve seen Emma three times now and her treatments have left me feeling amazing, I can now leave the house without makeup and have the confidence I was lacking with my skin. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone. Louise Horsey2024-11-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma is so knowledgeable and immediately puts you at ease. I’ve always suffered with cystic acne and uneven skin, but by sticking with Emma and following the skin care routine she tailored for me, I now feel confident leaving the house without any makeup - something I’ve never felt comfortable doing before! I totally trust Emma and am always excited for my next appointment! Thank you Emma 😃
