The Inside Out Skin Health Programme
Microneedling, advanced peels and a 12 week plan for healthier, youthful skin
Most people who come to me in Barry and the Vale of Glamorgan do not come to me about one thing. They come because their skin has changed and nothing they have tried is making much difference any more.
The Inside Out Skin Health Programme is a measured, twelve week approach to skin. It brings together the treatments that genuinely change skin, microneedling and professional peels, with the preparation that makes them work and keeps them safe.
It is for the women who are tired of buying products that promise a great deal and change very little and who would rather understand exactly what is actually happening in their skin before spending anything else on it.
The Treatments in this Programme
In short
- Start with a £95 Skin Consultation including your Skin Scan, photographs, written plan and Skin Reset Facial
- If you decide to proceed, your 12-week skin programme is then planned around your results and goals, with progress reviewed every four weeks
- Microneedling and professional peels are introduced when your skin is ready, not before
- You decide what happens next after seeing your results, with no pressure to commit to further treatments
Your plan is adjusted at each reassessment, according to how your skin
has responded and what it can tolerate
Microneedling, or Collagen Induction Therapy
Very fine channels are created in the skin, which responds by producing new collagen as it repairs. Used for fine lines, firmness, texture and scarring.
Environ TCA Peel
A professional resurfacing peel, designed to resurface without the heat and long recovery associated with older peels, used for sun damage, pigmentation and uneven texture
Cool Peel Resurfacing Facial
A gentler peel, often the first corrective step.
Skin Reset Facial
The preparation treatment, the one you have on the consultation day. It works to get active vitamins into the skin and helps support the skin while the barrier recovers.
Why it is important that your skin is prepared
Microneedling and professional peels work on the same principle. Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels in the skin. A peel removes the surface layers in a measured, controlled way. Both initiate the skin’s natural wound healing response, which increases new collagen.
This is why the better the condition of the skin beforehand the better skin generally responds.
We measure and we treat
At your first appointment we carry out an in depth Skin Scan, which analyses your skin across eight areas and scores each one. We repeat it at four, eight and twelve weeks. It picks up the visible signs of skin under strain and tracks whether they are improving. It assesses the condition of your skin.
How the 12 weeks work
Step One. Your Skin Health Consultation, £95, 105 minutes. A proper conversation about your skin and your health, your first skin scan and photographs, your plan, and a Skin Reset Facial on the day.
Step two. Twelve weeks of treatment, reviewed every four weeks. Your plan is priced on the number of sessions, not the type, because the right treatment for week nine is decided in week nine. Early treatments calm and rebuild. We then move to corrective treatments such as microneedling and peels, these are already in your plan not an added extra.
Step three. At 12 weeks we scan again and put all four sets of results side by side so you can see exactly what has changed. Twelve weeks is one complete stage of work and how far it takes you depends on where your skin started. For some people it covers the preparation and a good run of corrective treatment. For others it repairs the barrier and makes a start on the correction with more to come. You will know which at your consultation and you are not signed up to anything beyond the twelve weeks.
Looking after your skin at home
Your treatments happen for about an hour or two a month. What you do on the other days is what makes them hold. Vitamin A needs to be introduced gradually and used consistently before skin can really make use of it and that is something only your home routine can do. So a prescribed Environ routine and Advanced Nutrition Programme supplements are part of the programme rather than an afterthought. Facials on their own will not get you there, and we would rather say so than let you spend the money on treatments that cannot hold.
We work your routine out together at your consultation, once I have seen your skin and you will know what it costs before you decide anything.
I am a skin and wellbeing practitioner, not a dermatologist or a doctor. I work on the condition and appearance of your skin. I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions, and if anything about your skin concerns me I will tell you and suggest you see your GP.
What changes, and when
Skin changes in a predictable order. Tightness and sensitivity settle first, usually within a couple of weeks. Hydration and surface texture follow at around three to four weeks, which is usually where skin stops looking tire, dull and makeup sits more evenly . Visible redness can be the slowest to shift and often see improvments around eight weeks or more.
What it costs
The Skin Health Consultation is £95. That includes your Skin Scan, your photographs, your written plan and a Skin Reset Facial on the day.
If you go on to the twelve week programme, most plans work out between £125 and £199 a month, so £375 to £597 over the 12 weeks. Which one is right for you is decided from your scan rather than chosen from a list, because it depends on how much repair your skin needs before the corrective work can start.
Your Environ skincare and Advanced Nutrition Programme supplements are separate, from £99 a month.
The consultation is the only thing you are committing to. Nothing else is decided or paid for until you have seen your own results and had time to think.
It may not be right for you if…
You are hoping for one treatment that fixes everything.
Twelve weeks is not realistic for you at the moment.

Questions people ask
Do I have to join the programme after my consultation?
No. Plenty of people take the plan away and act on it in their own time. You are not asked to decide anything on the day.
Is microneedling included, or an extra cost?
Included. Your plan is priced on the number of sessions rather than the type, so nothing is added on partway through.
Does it hurt, and will I need time off?
Most people describe microneedling as a strong prickling rather than pain. Expect your skin to look flushed for a day or so afterwards and to feel dry for a few days. Most people carry on as normal, and I will always tell you what to expect before we book.
Can I just book a peel or microneedling on its own?
Not as a first appointment. I need to have seen and measured your skin before using anything corrective on it. Once you are an existing client with a current assessment, individual treatments are straightforward to book.
How quickly will I see a difference, and will twelve weeks be enough?
The order things change in is set out further up this page. Whether twelve weeks is enough is a different question, and it depends on where your skin starts.
If your barrier needs a lot of repair, most of the early weeks go on that, and work on something like pigmentation or scarring will continue beyond the twelve weeks. I would rather tell you that at your consultation than let you find out in week twelve.
Can I keep using my own skincare?
Not during the programme, and I will explain why at your consultation. Your results are measured every four weeks, and that only tells us something if we know what your skin is actually receiving. Bring what you are using and we will go through it together
