“My skin just looks a bit… meh.”

Honestly, I hear versions of this all the time. 😅

Dull. Dry. Tired. Not quite as fresh as it used to look. Or maybe your usual skincare just doesn’t seem to be doing the job anymore.

But you don’t need to know whether you need a skin booster, peel, microneedling, polynucleotides — or something completely different — before you come and see me.

That’s my job. 🤎

We’ll look at what’s actually going on with your skin, what you’d like to improve and what’s realistic for you, then create a treatment and/or skincare plan that actually makes sense for your skin.

And sometimes? The answer is much simpler than you expected.

Your own blood… but make it skincare 👀

iPRF is one of those treatments you might not have heard quite as much about yet — but it’s definitely one worth knowing about.

Using a small sample of your own blood, iPRF is prepared to concentrate platelets, fibrin and growth factors and can be used as part of a personalised treatment plan for concerns including skin quality, fine lines, under-eyes, texture and acne scarring.

The important bit? It’s not about changing how you look. It’s about supporting your skin and working with what your body already has.

And as always, you don’t need to arrive at CDL knowing exactly what treatment you need. That’s what your consultation with Claire is for. 🤎

Save this one if iPRF is new to you — or drop Claire a message if you’d like to know whether it could be suitable for your skin.

There’s a big difference between wanting to change your face and wanting to feel a little fresher when you look in the mirror. 🤍

For some people, that might mean softening a line that’s started to bother them. For someone else, it could be improving skin quality, restoring a little lost volume or addressing something they’ve been conscious of for years.

And for someone else? It might mean doing absolutely nothing.

There isn’t one version of what aesthetics should look like.

My approach will always be to listen to what’s bothering you, look at your face and skin as a whole, and talk honestly about what might help — and what probably won’t.

Because the best result, for me, is still you.

Just feeling a little more like yourself. 🤍

5 things your aesthetics practitioner wants you to stop apologising for… 👀

1. Not knowing what treatment you need.
You really don’t need to arrive saying “I think I need Profhilo” or “Should I have filler?” Tell me what’s bothering you and we’ll start there.

2. Asking LOTS of questions.
Please do. I’d much rather you understand a treatment properly and feel completely comfortable before deciding.

3. Feeling nervous.
Whether it’s your first injectable or your fiftieth appointment, nerves are allowed. 🤍

4. Wanting really subtle results.
You don’t have to want a dramatic transformation. In fact, “I want to look fresher, but I still want to look like me” is something I hear all the time.

5. Changing your mind.
A consultation isn’t a commitment to treatment. If you decide it’s not for you, that’s absolutely fine.

A good consultation should never feel pressured or like you need to know all the answers before you walk through the door.

Come as you are. Ask the questions. We’ll figure out the rest together. 🤍

Feeling more tired than usual lately? 💤

Vitamin B12 plays an important role in the body, including supporting normal energy-yielding metabolism, the nervous system and the formation of red blood cells.

If your B12 levels are low, symptoms can include tiredness, weakness, low energy and difficulty concentrating — and in appropriate cases, B12 treatment may be recommended.

Vitamin B12 injections are available with Claire at CDL Aesthetics following consultation.

💉 Vitamin B12 injection — £29
💉 Course of 4 — £80

As always, it’s not about having a treatment simply because you’re feeling a bit tired. Claire will talk through your symptoms, medical history and suitability first, and if there’s anything that would be better discussed with your GP, she’ll advise you accordingly.

Because sometimes feeling exhausted is your body’s way of telling you that something needs a little more investigation. 🤎

For more information or to book, send Claire a DM or use the booking link in bio.

We know how tempting it is to want a quick fix, especially when something about your skin has been bothering you for months (or even years). But lasting change rarely comes from one appointment.

Our approach is to understand your skin, work with it rather than against it and create a plan that makes sense for you.

No unrealistic promises. No chasing overnight transformations. Just considered treatment, consistency and a team in your corner every step of the way 🤎

Not sure where to start? Book a skin consultation and let’s make a plan together.

Still using the same skincare routine you swore by five years ago? 👀

If it’s suddenly not giving you the same results, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to buy more products.

It might just mean your skin has changed.

Our skin isn’t static. Hormones, age, stress, sleep, the seasons and our environment can all influence how it looks, feels and behaves — which means the routine that once worked beautifully for you might not be quite what your skin needs now.

And this is where it’s very easy to fall into the trap of adding another serum… another active… another product someone on Instagram told you was a “must-have”. 🙈

Sometimes, less — but better suited to your skin — is exactly what’s needed.

At CDL, we’d much rather take the time to look at your skin, talk about what you’re currently using, what you’d like to improve and recommend a routine that actually makes sense for you.

Because good skincare isn’t about having the fullest bathroom shelf.

It’s about understanding your skin. 🤍

If your skin has changed and you’re not quite sure what it needs anymore, come and have a chat with Claire.

“I’m not tired… so why do I always look tired?” 👀

It’s something I hear in clinic all the time — and the answer isn’t always as simple as getting more sleep.

The under-eye area has some of the thinnest, most delicate skin on the face, and there are lots of reasons it can start to look tired over time.

You might be noticing fine lines or crepey skin, darker pigmentation, hollowness, puffiness, or simply a change in the quality and elasticity of the skin.

And here’s the important bit…

They don’t all need the same treatment.

What works beautifully for someone with delicate, crepey under-eye skin may not be appropriate for someone whose main concern is pigmentation, puffiness or volume loss.

That’s why at CDL we start with what’s actually causing the tired appearance, rather than jumping straight to whichever under-eye treatment happens to be trending.

For some clients, regenerative treatments such as polynucleotides may be an option to help improve skin quality around the eyes. For others, a completely different approach may be more appropriate.

You don’t need to know which one you need.

Just tell me what you’re seeing when you look in the mirror.

We’ll start there. 🤍

DM Claire De Luca - Advanced Aesthetics & Skin Clinician to arrange a consultation with Claire.

A little skincare tough love… delivered with the best intentions. 🤍

There’s SO much information out there about what we should be putting on our skin.

The latest must-have ingredient.
The serum everyone suddenly swears by.
The 10-step routine.
The product that apparently changed someone’s skin overnight…

It’s no wonder we end up confused.

But good skin isn’t about chasing every new trend, spending the most money or constantly adding more products to your routine.

And it definitely isn’t about trying to make your skin look like the filtered, poreless skin we see online.

Real skin has texture. It has pores. It moves. It changes as we age. And all of that is completely normal.

What matters is understanding your skin.

What it needs.
What it responds well to.
What might be doing more harm than good.
And where professional treatments or advice could genuinely make a difference.

Sometimes, doing less — but doing the right things consistently — can be far more beneficial than throwing everything at it.

So before you add the next viral serum to your basket… perhaps ask yourself:

What does my skin actually need?

And if you don’t know, that’s exactly what I’m here for. 🤍
