What drives us

Our mission,
and where we’re going

A consultation at London Real Skin

Our mission

To treat real skin concerns with real solutions

We only offer treatments we believe in. Every one has been hand-selected by our Medical Director following careful analysis of the clinical studies behind it, so that what we recommend is chosen on evidence rather than trend. We would rather tell you a treatment will not help than sell you one that will not.

Our vision

Dermatology-led skin care, made accessible

Specialist skin care should not sit behind a velvet rope. We want every patient who walks into Holborn to leave understanding their own skin, with a plan they can actually follow and afford, supported by complimentary consultations and interest-free finance.

How we work

Process makes perfect.
Here’s ours

From start to finish we want to ensure you receive the very best treatment from our team of experienced professionals.

  1. 01

    Skin education

    Our experienced and highly qualified aesthetic practitioners will complete an in-depth and bespoke consultation with you, to deeply understand your skin concerns and treatment goals.

  2. 02

    Skin recommendation

    Before your first treatment you will receive a consent form along with useful information and pre and post-care guidelines. Your practitioner will talk you through the treatment and answer any questions you may have.

  3. 03

    Skin treatment

    Using state-of-the-art laser technology, clinical equipment, skincare treatments and products, we begin your bespoke treatment plan to aid tangible results and overall skin improvements.

  4. 04

    Skin maintenance

    Our aesthetic professionals will advise you on post-treatment aftercare to protect and treat the skin, and to maintain optimal results well beyond your last appointment.
