Talking (and trying) Sculptra - a biostimulator which seems to be the beauty buzzword du jour (despite being far from new!). As wonderful Dr Ash @thesoniclinic explains, Sculptra doesnāt āfillā but works more on remodelling, and differs to skin boosters like Profhilo and polynucleotides which primarily improve skin surface quality.
Downtime is next to nothing (a little swelling/possible bruising). The only drawback is remembering to massage multiple times a day after each treatment which is a must to avoid complications. Speaking of which, Iād only ever see a practitioner experienced in biostimulators as it is technique-sensitive, and skill really affects the outcome. Dr Ash is incredible!!
Results are purposefully subtle, and so far I feel tighter and look less gaunt, though Iām excited to see my āafterā pics in 6 weeks time. Will report back! Any questions, ask away.

What a brilliant chat I had with @bridgetmarch on the podcast ā one of the UKās most loved (and talented) beauty editors.
We talked about journalism and ambition (including the dreaded comparison culture) but also skincare, injectables, hair, make-up, and a whole host of brand and product recommendations.
Thank you so much, Bridget, for being so generous with your thoughts, honesty, and recommendations.
Fi and I LOVED this episode. It was like a coffee morning and a good natter with a great friend.

This is what our day looked like at @the_beauty_triangle Festival yesterday and itās safe to say we had a lot of fun!
We discussed Skin X Womenās Health on the Discovery Stage and the importance of using the right skincare like SKN TO SKN for your hormonal skin changes during fertility, pregnancy, breastfeeding, postpartum and even perimenopause and menopause.
The line up of speakers was so impressive and we met some incredible doctors who are leaders and innovators in their field. Very inspiring.
A huge thanks to @francescaogiermannwhite for having us, @bridgetmarch for leading the conversation and our fabulous Dermatologist Advisor @caitrionaryandermatology for being there with us š¤
