The Contour Clinic

Maternity leave dump 🤍

I’m back in clinic tomorrow after what feels like the fastest 8 weeks ever.

I haven’t enjoyed every minute of it I won’t lie. There have been tears, sick, sleep deprivation and more milk than I ever thought possible. But we’re all alive and that’s what’s important 🫠😂

Thank you for all the lovely messages whilst I’ve been away. I’m very much looking forward to a little bit of normality.

If you have an appointment with me soon, bring tequila! Thanks x

Brothers 🫶🏼💙

And that’s a wrap. My last day in clinic done before baby arrives.

Thank you for all the cards, gifts and well wishes over the past few weeks, we’re very grateful 🥺

And to those of you who have already rebooked for my return, thank you for your continued support and trust.

Here’s to no sleep and long over due spicy margs🌶️

I’m ready when you are, baby 🤍👶🏼

February Favourites 🫶🏼

— Treatments that continue to prove why they’re my most requested
— Love Day in clinic

— Sofa snugs in questionable Christmas PJs because comfort > aesthetics

March, I’m ready (I think).

One treatment. A big reduction in visible thread veins.

During one of the most stressful periods of her life, she started to notice the small capillaries gradually increasing, spreading across her cheeks and tracking down towards the jawline.

Grief doesn’t just sit in your head. It affects your nervous system, your inflammation levels, even how reactive your skin becomes. When flushing happens repeatedly, fragile capillaries can eventually stop bouncing back.

Before coming to me, she’d tried several treatments elsewhere, including a full course of electrolysis, with very little change. While that approach can be effective for smaller, isolated vessels, the extent of her presentation needed further consideration and a different treatment approach.

She was advised to continue with more sessions and see how things progressed, something didn’t sit comfortably with her and it wouldn’t sit comfortably with me either.

No treatment is guaranteed. Skin is biological and can respond differently person to person. But if we follow the correct protocol and there’s no measurable improvement, I won’t continue simply in the hope that something might change.

After one properly targeted vascular session, we’ve significantly reduced the density of these vessels without damaging the surrounding skin. She has two treatments remaining, and it’s been lovely to see her confidence already start to shift.

If you’re noticing increasing redness, flushing or broken capillaries, book in for a proper consultation.

IPL vascular treatments always require a thorough assessment and a test patch before we proceed. Safety and suitability come first.

Family love last night, client love today 🫶🏼
