TESTIMONIALS WHAT THE PRESS SAY :
What our clients say:
“… SmoothShapes is like a boot camp for your lumps and bumps…instant results on stubborn fleshy bits.” Grazia Magazine
“I was nervous having my first skin peel, but after walking into such a beautiful clinic and meeting my practitioner, I felt at ease straight away. My skin felt soft, smooth and revitalised, I’ve recommend it to all my friends!” S. Ali
“With no downtime, no bruising and no pain, a cellulite laser treatment by SmoothShapes and DestinationSkin has landed from the US...liquefies and eliminates lipids in fat cells, causing them to shrink, thus smoothing out the cellulite.” Elle Magazine “I asked my therapist for a perkier, fresher and clearer facial complexion. She applied an Enzyme Facial of glycolic acid, then zapped my forehead, nose and cheeks with IPL to stimulate collagen. The best she saved for last, although Advanced Electrolysis involves the use of a small and devilishly sharp needle to break down imperfections, it is miraculously effective. In one 20-minute needle-wield, she erased about two thirds of my red marks” The Times
As soon as I had my CACI treatment I could see a difference. The clinic staff were really friendly and if I’d have known DestinationSkin did CACI I would have been coming here years ago! I will be coming back for more – definitely! L. Howard “I have extremely sensitive skin and found it difficult to get the right treatments for my skin…the recommendations from my practitioner were brilliant. I now feel better than I ever have before and my confidence has been given a real boost! Thank you DestinationSkin!” J. Adams
“I have spent years shaving, epilating, you name it! I had IPL on my arm hairs and I am amazed at the outcome. I never thought I could get results like these.” F. Afzal “This is not a spa - I was expecting a facial but got a lot more! I was a bit surprised when I went for my appointment, but when my therapist explained to me what improvements I could make to my skin, I never thought I could make such a difference.” P. Shala
