At The Light Sanctum, we believe that the best clinical outcomes don’t come from treating the skin alone, they come from understanding and supporting the body from within. This is why we integrate Prysm nutritional health scans and targeted antioxidant support into our patient journeys. The Prysm device gives us a non-invasive insight into your body’s antioxidant status, a key biomarker of how well your system is equipped to protect and repair itself. Antioxidants play a vita

Polynucleotides are filtered and ultra-purified natural DNA fractions (from fish) that can be injected into the skin or under the eyes to initiate your body’s fibroblast production. This will in turn help reduce fine lines, improve pigmentation and leave the face looking fresher, lifted and tighter. It is a clear gel that is gently injected into the skin into specific areas using a needle or cannula and works deep at a cellular level. Once the polynucleotides have been admini

Hollie had been to us about other treatments but on one appointment mentioned she wanted more of a brow lift and to see more of her eyelids. We discussed treatment using ‘Botox’ to help relax certain muscles to encourage others to work harder to create that ‘lift’. Treating muscles to achieve certain results is a bit of an art. Muscles work like a pulley system so if you relax one, the opposite muscle will overcompensate and work harder – we can use this to our advantage! Onc

Aggie first came to see me back in March 2022 for a skin consultation. She had been struggling with her skin and had been to see other clinics but didn’t feel her concerns were improving. Aggie had been struggling with hormonal breakouts and large pores and felt her skin was dull. Her goal was to have clearer, brighter looking skin. As with all new patients, we started off with a skin consultation and analysis. This is a thorough chat about concerns, medical history, lifestyl

Maya came for a consultation to discuss her jawline. She felt she needed more definition and was looking to have some filler. After a thorough chat and physical assessment, we both felt it would be more beneficial to treat Maya’s medical cheek, chin and lips. These treatments were not what Maya had in mind, but when I showed her a picture of her profile and we analysed her Rickett’s Plane, we could see her chin and lips slightly fell short. To improve balance and harmony and

Katya has struggled with excessive sweating for years and felt self conscious about it especially in the summer months where she had to consciously choose darker coloured clothes. She was recommended to us as she had heard of this treatment but didn’t know where to go. We always start with a consultation to assess medical history and discuss the sweating in her underarms. Treating excessive sweating for the underarms is very popular especially over the warmer months but we ca

Emma got in touch through a recommendation in July 2020, so in the middle of lockdown. She had been struggling with her skin for a long time and always felt the need to cover up. Suffering from breakouts, redness and dryness, she had tried all sorts of products to help. After a virtual consultation and good chat about Emma’s skin journey to date, her known triggers, her current routine and her skin goals, we started her off on her Alumier journey. Starting off very slowly to

Tori contacted me through a recommendation about her lips. She was apprehensive about having injectables but following a consultation and thorough discussion of what the procedure involved, we decided on a gradual build up. Starting off slowly, gave Tori the confidence in the procedure (and me!) but also allowed us to build up her lips gradually and safely. We decided on treating Tori’s lip with a cannula to be extra safe. I strongly believe that bigger is not better and one
