What’s your favourite aesthetic treatment to perform and why?
As an Aesthetic Nurse, my passion for performing lip treatments lies in the delicate art of enhancing natural beauty. I take great pride in creating subtle, yet impactful changes that make my patients feel more confident and beautiful. Crafting natural enhancements with lip fillers allows me to harmonise each individual’s unique features, ensuring that every smile remains genuine and authentic.
What is your signature approach when it comes to treating your patients?
My signature approach as an Aesthetic Nurse begins with a thorough medical history assessment to ensure the safety and suitability of the treatment. I then conduct a comprehensive analysis of the patient’s skin, facial symmetry, and bone structure. This holistic evaluation allows me to customise each treatment plan, ensuring that the natural enhancements I create harmonise seamlessly with the patient’s unique features. By prioritising individualised care and precision, I help my patients achieve beautifully balanced and authentic results.
Why do you use ZO Skin Health products?
I use ZO Skin Health products because of its commitment to high-quality, science-backed formulations. These products deliver outstanding results by promoting overall skin health and vitality. Incorporating ZO Skin Health products into my practice allows me to offer my patients top-tier solutions that enhance and maintain their natural beauty. The results speak for themselves, helping my patients achieve radiant, healthy skin that boosts their confidence and complements the aesthetic treatments I provide.
Who does the range best suit and why?
In short, anyone who has skin! If you already have good skin, there is no better way to support and maintain healthy skin than by using ZO. For problem skin such as acne, scarring or rosacea, ZO in my view is unparalleled in delivering meaningful improvements.
Which are your must-have products and why?
Firstly, Daily Power Defense. This advanced serum is clinically proven to strengthen skin’s protective barrier while defending against environmental stressors and premature signs of ageing. Secondly, Complexion Renewal Pads. These moistened pads help minimise surface oil and exfoliate pore-clogging dead skin cells and dirt.
Do you use ZO personally? Which products?
Yes, I use ZO Skin Health. My favourite product is ZO Growth Factor Serum, which is a lightweight gel that helps strengthen skin, supports skin repair and protects against future signs of ageing. Perfect for all skin types, even the most sensitive skin. The ZO Skin Health Growth Factor Serum is a powerful anti-ageing serum that is formulated with growth factors and peptides to help improve the skin’s overall health and appearance. It helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and tone, and increase collagen production for a more youthful-looking complexion.
