Welcome to The Retreat, a friendly, nurse-led, Aesthetic skin and beauty clinic.

I am a Registered Nurse and Independant Nurse Prescriber with over 35 years of experience.

Forehead Lines Report

Take the appearance of train track lines that appear in the space above the eyebrows and below the hair line. The muscles in this area are responsible for holding the eyebrows in position and with repeated use over time generate folds and creases in the skin. Whenever you move your forehead you activate the muscles known collectively as the Frontalis.

Frown Lines Report

Frown lines are sometimes referred to as Glabellar lines or "legs 11" They are vertical lines that develop between your eyebrows and nose and they appear when you contract and move two of the facial muscles called the Procerus and Corrugators. Frown lines appear as part of the natural ageing process of the face but can become more pronounced over time.

Under Eye Bags Report

As we age, we can experience volume loss in this area resulting in shadows, depressions, puffiness and bags. The fat pad which protects and supports the lower lid begins to separate from the muscle and as the cheek bone shrinks back it falls causing dark circles and hollows. This coupled with a reduction in the efficiency of the lymphatic system results in puffiness around the delicate skin.

Lines and Wrinkles Report

Fine lines and wrinkles appear because of irregular thickening of the dermis, a reduction in new skin cell production and a decrease in the amount of water held by the epidermis. They can also accumulate due to environmental damage caused by smoking, sunlight, pollutants in the air and to a degree are related to genetic skin structure.

I always enjoy my visits to The Retreat.
Rebecca gives the best facials that I have ever had and I have tried quite a few different places in the past. I have been visiting for over 5 years now.
The staff are all friendly and welcoming.
I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Lovely atmosphere - such nice, friendly people. It was good to talk over treatments with Lynn, and to decide what to book next. Lynn is very up to date and good at explaining what's involved.
