Hi, I'm Piper.
I've had my own skin and aesthetics clinic for 11 years, although my career before aesthetics was something completely different.
I was the Client Services Director for a telecommunications company, and it was actually a pretty unprofessional consultation for laser hair removal that got me thinking about starting my own clinic.
Having spent years working in client services, I knew I could provide a much better experience than the one I'd just had myself.
So that's how it started.
I began with laser hair removal, and over the years my interest in skin grew organically into advanced skin treatments, skin health, and now looking at how we can support our skin both internally and externally, including through nutrition.
It's been quite a journey, but the one thing that hasn't changed is how important the client experience is to me.
My name is above the door.
I'm not a massive clinic, and I have no desire to be.
Most of my clients come to me through word of mouth and referrals, which means an enormous amount to me, both personally and professionally.
It's my name above the door. It's my reputation, and I take both very seriously.
Whether you're coming to me for laser hair removal or you're working with me on a long-term skin plan, I want you to receive the same high level of service, attention and care.
Over the years, I've treated plenty of laser hair removal clients who've previously been elsewhere, often because they'd found somewhere cheaper.
They've had different therapists at almost every appointment, inconsistent treatment settings, varying session lengths, and very little continuity.
That's not how I work.
I want to know what settings have been used at previous appointments, how much hair reduction we're achieving and whether we need to adjust anything as the course progresses.
When it comes to skin, I look at the bigger picture.
My approach to skin has developed considerably over the years.
The more I've understood about the relationship between what's happening internally in the body and what we're seeing externally in the skin, the more important it's become to address both.
Your skin doesn't exist independently of the rest of your body.
I can recommend fantastic skincare and carry out advanced treatments, but what you're doing at home, your nutrition and what's happening internally can all influence the results we're trying to achieve.
So when someone comes to me wanting to improve their skin, I want us to approach it properly.
That means looking at the whole picture, putting the right foundations in place and being consistent with them, rather than expecting an occasional treatment to do all the work.
Who I work best with
At this stage in my career, I'm quite comfortable saying that I'm not necessarily the right practitioner for everyone.
If you're looking for the cheapest appointment or a quick fix, we're probably not going to be the best fit.
I put a lot of time, knowledge and care into what I do, and my prices reflect the level of service I provide.
I genuinely want my clients to get the best results possible, and I'm happy to invest my time and knowledge in helping them achieve that.
All I ask in return is that you're prepared to invest in yourself too. Whether that's being consistent with your skincare, following the advice we agree on or committing to a course of treatments, it's something we work on together.
I take my side of that seriously, and I want you to get as much out of it as possible.
