Where Professional Skin Analysis Meets Personalised Care
Professional Skin Consultations & Analysis in Southampton
Every skin is different, and understanding its needs is the first step to healthier, more balanced skin. At The Beauty Bistro, my consultations combine professional expertise with a personalised approach, helping you understand your skin, address your concerns and make informed decisions about skincare and treatments.
Whether you’re visiting for your first bespoke facial, seeking advice on a particular skin concern or looking for guidance on professional skincare, I offer a choice of consultations designed around your needs.
New Client Skin Consultation & Bespoke Facial – £145 – 90 minutes
Designed for new clients, this appointment combines a comprehensive professional skin consultation and advanced 3D skin analysis with a personalised bespoke facial, allowing you to receive expert advice and your first treatment in one visit.
Your appointment begins with a 45-minute consultation, during which I review your skin concerns, relevant medical and treatment history, current skincare routine and individual objectives. This includes a professional visual and hands-on assessment, supported by advanced 3D skin analysis to provide a more detailed understanding of your skin’s condition and characteristics.
The advanced imaging system uses multi-spectrum technology and high-resolution photography to examine different characteristics of your skin, including texture, pigmentation, pores, wrinkles, visible redness and signs of UV damage. These findings complement my professional assessment, helping me identify areas requiring particular attention and determine the most appropriate approach to your facial treatment.
Following your assessment, I will select and carry out a 45-minute bespoke facial using the professional products, techniques and technologies I consider most appropriate for your skin.
Rather than selecting a facial based on a particular product range or technology, you are booking my time and expertise. I adapt every treatment to your skin’s individual needs, whether your concerns involve dehydration, sensitivity, congestion, uneven skin tone or visible signs of ageing.
You will also receive personalised skincare advice, including recommendations for ingredients and formulations suited to your skin, with guidance on establishing an effective home skincare routine to help maintain and improve your skin.
All treatments are subject to suitability following consultation. If I determine that a facial is not appropriate on the day, I will explain my findings and discuss the most suitable next steps with you. In these circumstances, £65 will be retained for the professional consultation and skin analysis, and the remaining £80 will be credited towards a future suitable treatment or redeemed against professional skincare.
Skin Consultation & Analysis – £65 – 45 minutes
Designed for clients seeking a detailed understanding of their skin, this consultation combines a comprehensive professional assessment with personalised skincare recommendations tailored to your individual needs and concerns.
This consultation is particularly suitable if you would like help understanding persistent or complex skin concerns, identifying the ingredients and formulations most appropriate for your skin, or establishing an effective professional home skincare routine.
Your appointment includes an in-depth review of your skin history, current concerns and relevant lifestyle factors, followed by a professional visual and hands-on assessment supported by advanced 3D skin analysis.
The advanced imaging system uses multi-spectrum technology and high-resolution photography to examine and record different characteristics of your skin, including texture, pigmentation, pores, wrinkles, visible redness and signs of UV damage. The findings provide additional information to support my professional assessment and establish a useful baseline for monitoring changes over time.
Using the findings from your consultation, physical assessment and skin imaging, I will explain how your skin is presenting, discuss factors that may be contributing to your concerns and identify areas that would benefit from particular attention.
Based on your skin’s individual needs, I will recommend a personalised professional skincare routine, carefully selecting products and formulations to address your concerns while supporting your skin’s overall condition. I will explain the purpose of each recommended product, how the ingredients work and how to introduce and use your skincare correctly.
My aim is for you to leave with a clearer understanding of your skin and a carefully considered skincare routine, with the knowledge and guidance needed to maintain and improve your skin.
Before Your Skin Consultation
Before your appointment, you will receive a detailed consultation form to complete and return electronically. This allows me to review your skin concerns, medical and treatment history, current skincare routine and other relevant information before you arrive.
Completing your form in advance means we can make the best use of our time together, allowing me to focus on assessing your skin, discussing my findings and recommending the most appropriate approach for your individual needs.
This process applies to both the New Client Skin Consultation & Bespoke Facial and the Comprehensive Skin Consultation & Analysis.
Online Skin Consultation via Zoom – £50 – 30 minutes
If you need professional advice about your skin but are unable to visit The Beauty Bistro in person, my Zoom Skin Consultation gives you the opportunity to discuss your concerns with me from wherever you are.
This consultation is particularly suited to clients who would like help understanding what their skin needs, are confused by the products they are currently using, have a specific skin concern they would like guidance with, or need help establishing an effective professional skincare routine.
Before our appointment, I will send you a consultation form to complete and electronically return. This gives me useful background information about your skin, current products and the concerns you would most like to address.
During our Zoom appointment, we will discuss your skin in detail. I will review your existing skincare routine, identify where changes may be beneficial and explain the approach I recommend for your individual concerns.
A key part of the consultation is establishing the correct home skincare. I will recommend a personalised professional skincare routine, explaining what I have selected and why each product has been recommended.
Upon purchase, I will also provide clear guidance on how each product should be introduced and used correctly. My aim is to give you a clear, manageable routine in which every product has a purpose and is appropriate for your skin.
As this is a remote consultation, recommendations are based on the information you provide, our discussion and what can reasonably be assessed by video.
