Afterglow Aesthetics

After 7 years Afterglow is closing..

✨SEPTEMBER AVAILABILITY IS LIVE ✨
I have been sooo quiet on social but still working behind the scenes.
My diary up on the booking system up until 2nd October.

I am working ever Friday in September, Thursday evenings and there is a Sunday available too.
As always please message if you have any queries 💗

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer 🌞🌞🌞

My diary is made up until APRIL!!

The start of the year is always busy with admin and somehow I’ve managed to organise my diary up until April 🙌🏻🙌🏻

The booking page has had a bit of TLC and an update to include consultation appointments and there is now a gift voucher tab.

Consultations have and always will be included in every appointment but there is now a tab specifically for consultation only.

Gift vouchers can be purchased online now. As always gift vouchers can be made up to any amount. There is an option to collect nicer vouchers from clinic if you’d prefer rather than a print out- there are no extra charge for these.

✨10 years younger 💁🏼‍♀️✨
Softer, glowy and absolutely undetectable (apart from the before photos!)

A mixed treatment approach of polynucleotides and anti wrinkle treatments over the space of a few months.
The skin appears much more plumper, brighter and overall skin texture has improved. Also,a true testament to the importance of skincare, daily SPF, diet and hydration in your journey.

You truly are a beautiful soul. Thank you for allowing me to share your pictures 💖🫶🏼

It can be so hard to try and find time to look after ourselves. Life is busy. When I ask the majority of any new patients that come into clinic if they wear SPF the answer is usually no.
Do you have a skincare routine including SPF?

✨A lip journey✨
A journey of striping it back, going back to baseline and embracing natural beauty.
My beautiful patient presented with lips which were overfilled and puffy. More and more filler had been added to correct lumps and unevenness.

‼️The answer to lumps and bumps is NEVER to add MORE‼️

Now we carefully treat her lips every so often with careful consideration for her facial anatomy. One size simply doesn’t fit all 🫶🏼

Swipe for before…

✨Introducing Polynucleotides✨

Hello its me returning for a rare social media post- things are a tad busy behind the scenes.

I’ve been working with polynucleotides since the end of last year now with a number of patients. You may have heard of polynucleotides online and wonder if this is a good treatment for you.

What are the benefits of polynucleotides?
- Stimulate collagen and elastin production
- Improves skin firmness which reduces the appearance of wrinkles and crepey appearing skin
- Promote cell regeneration which can lead to the skin looking brighter and smoother
- Can help with hyperpigmentation and scaring such as acne scarring and sun damage

Not sure if this is the treatment for you?
Have a look at my patients results. These pictures were 4 months apart after four sessions of polynucleotides. She looks fabulous and glowing. The overall skin health looks greatly improved, smoother and fine lines have hugely improved especially under her eyes. What’s even better she is religious with her skin care and will continue this using which has complimented her treatments brilliantly.

Thank you so much for modelling 💖

Unfortunately I am seeing an increase of patients coming to see me with complications after receiving treatments from non regulated practitioners. This can be hugely distressing for patients to have to deal with and these complications are never an overnight fix.

The Scottish government has finally published a paper on proposed regulation of practitioners carrying out non surgical treatments in Scotland.

There is a questionnaire on this page asking the public their opinion on who they feel certain treatments such as dermal filler and anti wrinkle treatments should be given by and under what setting (regulated or not).

I urge my patients past and present to have a look at this questionnaire and contribute their thoughts.

There are loads of great practitioners out there who are regulated and I’m always happy to recommend or discuss the issues identified in this paper.

Do not risk your face in the hands of someone who is not appropriately trained, not regulated, does not have the ability to follow you up promptly (such as pop up clinics coming from another area) and happy to offer a very cheap deal using fake or poor product. Never trust someone who is happy to be a vending machine and not assess YOU as whole 🫶🏻

Disclaimer- I will never offer my personal opinion on any individual practitioner. I respect all my fellow aesthetic colleagues regardless of professional background.

Have your say here:

Regulation and licensing of non-surgical cosmetic procedures: consultation background paper Background paper to support the consultation on the further regulation and licensing of non-surgical cosmetic procedures. This paper includes our proposals for robust and proportionate regulation to support responsible practitioners and ensure client safety.

Vouchers are available for Christmas and all year round ✨ these can be made up to any amount.
