Skin Concerns
Treatment options
Your skin may be over-exfoliated, overproducing oil, have redness, feel tight and dry, congested, breaking out, depending on the season, your lifestyle, diet or unsuitable skincare.
If you aren’t sure what to do or how to choose, Fiona recommends booking a consultation where she can learn more about you, your skin, and your lifestyle. Alternatively if you want to book in for a Skin Chat then we can meet to discuss where to from here.
While Fiona cannot diagnose certain health conditions, she will recommend you to an appropriate professional who can.
Acne
Acne can be caused by a wide range of factors. Including the food you eat, hormonal changes, impaired skin barrier function and skin hygiene.
Your skin may be overtreated by prescription medications, usage directions that do not suit your skin, sluggish, thickened sebum, genetics, or you could simply be missing a few useful tips you can implement at home.
Book a consultation with Fiona or dive straight in with the Acne Relief and Extractions Facial.
Pigmentation
Pigmentation has many causes, to sun exposure, hormones, acne scarring, and internal inflammation.
Understanding the cause of pigmentation helps Fiona to consider what treatments or home care are needed to improve the condition.
If you are concerned, get in touch for a consultation or book in for Fiona’s Choice 1.5-hour appointment to get started.
Tip from Fiona: Start wearing SPF every day, winter or summer, now.
Sensitivity or inflammation
Genetics, environmental or seasonal changes, the food you eat or illness can all contribute to sensitivities.
It can be distressing, and people often stop using all skincare in an attempt to remove any further irritation or inflammation, which can end up making things worse.
Gut issues or food allergies can also result in inflammation and redness.
Fiona recommends booking an in-depth skin consultation so you can get the right relief from the symptoms.
Age management
When Fiona wrote her thesis, she focused on Women Ageing and Beauty.
She learned about the internal causes of cell regeneration and the effects on DNA, as well as how we can make a difference through diet, the external protection and nourishment of our skin to reduce the signs of ageing.
Ageing skin can appear thicker, pigmented, have diffused redness, fine lines and wrinkles, loss of tone and have lost luminosity.
While Fiona can assist you with age management, beginning a personalised home skincare routine first enhances your treatment results.
Some things we can't change, but there is much we can do together.
Book your consultation today for a 1.5-hour Fiona's Choice facial.
Internal ageing is affected by cell regeneration and DNA.

Fiona strives only for perfection, and this is evident not only in her impeccable service but also in her knowledge and understanding of skincare.
Fiona helped with my son's acne, and we saw amazing results. This helped to boost his self-confidence, which had been at an all-time low. Fiona offers a calm, gentle space and genuinely cares for every one of her clients.
Sarah Horn
I had a facial with Fiona and I’m so happy with the results. Feeling a bit worn out and also feeling the effects of the change of season, my skin was in need of some TLC - and that’s exactly what I got!
Thanks for your knowledge and care Fiona.
