This has been my favourite injectable treatment to perform on clients for a while now and each time I’m still blown away. I absolutely love the results patients are experiencing but mostly am amazed at the longevity of these results.
Skin Tip: Take the time for a skincare ritual. Not only is it the best opportunity to strengthen your skin in between treatments in clinic, it’s an important moment in the chaos of the day just for you.

Jess Wells
Senior Dermal Therapist
Jess has grown up in the Margaret River region, adventuring off to live in various parts of Australia and New Zealand for some time during her teens and 20’s. She now has two children of her own that she has the joy of raising on her family farm in Rosa Brook where she grew up.
The pride of being part of such an incredibly warm and welcoming community is something that Jess truly treasures with always doing her best to give back to the community she was raised by.
Her passion for taking care of others and making people feel good in their own skin is what inspired Jess to enter the beauty industry. Even after 16 years in the industry, her love for skin and dermal therapies is continually growing. Passion for new modalities and skin treatments is where her heart lies, with the love for education and growth of knowledge, Jess always enjoys moving her clients forward on their skin journey by introducing new technologies and products.
Favourite Treatment: It is so difficult to decide just one favourite treatment! It’s extremely close between needling and our new BBL treatment. Both are absolutely incredible, and I love the science behind these two treatments. Aging, pigmentation, rosacea, broken capillaries, with these two modalities I’ve got you covered!
Skin Tip: SPF is number one! Everyday! You work indoors? Sunscreen. You only go outside in the morning? Sunscreen. It’s cloudy and raining outside? Sunscreen! The key to antiaging is prevention and SPF is your first defence against ageing and pigmentation.
Anna Ryan
Senior Dermal Therapist
It’s watching a clients skin journey unfold that keeps Anna’s love for skin alive. It’s seeing them from the first visit, following them along, seeing the changes and seeing them reach their goals, that she finds so exciting!
This is what she loves doing, and even better the people she gets to work alongside make it even better.
Whilst she owned her own beauty salon for ten years, Anna now lives in Margs with her family. She appreciates the wildness, the spectacular coastline and the fact she can always find herself alone at the beach.
Favourite Treatment: Venus RF.
I love this treatment for my clients, and also having it done myself, it’s a really clever way of getting your skin working smarter and reminding our collagen to kick into action.
Texture, sun damage, lines, scarring and loss of elasticity can all be addressed, don’t be scared of a little bit of downtime, it really is very manageable!
If you’re already using our products at home, and wanting to level up your skin game, definitely consider a course of RF, to really give your skin a smooth, firming boost of radiance.
Skin Tip: As a therapist I cannot tell you how important a solid routine is for your skin at home. There’s no cheating, or magic one ingredient, that gives you healthy, beautiful skin. It’s doing the steps, morning and night. But it doesn’t have to be complicated, and when you’ve got the right products to use at home, you start seeing the results, and the magic happens!
Together, homecare and treating you in clinic, we can help guide you to fabulous skin.
