A snapshot of treatments I’ve trialled!

I’ve tried hundreds of aesthetic, wellness, and clinical beauty treatments since 2006 — initially for articles, interviews, and broadcasts, and often simply out of professional curiosity.

Some I’ve paid for myself, others came through editorial access, and the results have ranged from genuinely life-changing to completely underwhelming. A small number have even gone wrong and required corrective work — so I understand this space from every angle.

Over the years, I’ve learned that if every treatment truly delivered on its promises, I’d have the skin of a 12-year-old, the body of a supermodel, and be ageing backwards — which tells you everything you need to know about the reality (and hype) in this industry.

The upside for you is that I’ve already done the trial and error — and seen behind the curtain. I have a very low tolerance for hype, and I’ll quickly tell you what’s worth it and what’s, frankly, nonsense. My job is to save you time, money, and disappointment — and make sure you don’t get sold a dream that won’t deliver.

You can follow my adventures in aesthetics on Instagram, where I share honest, unfiltered insights. The video below is just a snapshot of the past 20 years. For a full list of treatments I’ve personally tried, see those on the list below with an asterisk ones which we can discuss, go here.
