“It was painful and totally destroyed my self confidence.”
Aged just 27, Carla was struggling with severe adult acne. A mixture of spots, welts and boils with terrible dry skin too. Eventually, her skin concerns became so overwhelming that she avoided leaving the house entirely. However, everything changed when she saw an advert for SkinBase Microdermabrasion with Hollie at Pamper Treat Repeat. What started as a nerve-wracking first appointment quickly became the beginning of a journey back to glowing skin, and importantly, restored confidence.
A Professional, Personalised Approach
Hollie’s expert touch, combined with a tailored course of Microdermabrasion sessions, helped Carla see results as early as treatment 3. Her skin became less inflamed and noticeably calmer, with minimised redness. Knowing that acne is a multi-faceted condition, Hollie also recommended a simple at-home routine to support Carla’s progress. Using SkinBase professional products, Carla treated her skin outside of the treatment room to maximise the results achieved on her acne transformation journey.
“After a course of treatments my skin was glowing. It was clear, it was healthy and bit by bit my confidence came back and I started going for a coffee and cake after my treatments!”
Acne Transformation Journey: The Power of Skin Confidence
If you’re struggling with your skin, and wondering if professional treatments are worth it, Carla has one clear message:
“Don’t waste another day.”
She had tried it all: from prescriptions ointments and peels, to fruit enzymes and herbal remedies. Nothing gave her the results or support that SkinBase Microdermabrasion and Hollie delivered. Her course of treatment and skin transformation didn’t just improve her skin, it gave Carla her life back. Her only regret? Not doing it sooner!
A Winning Transformation: The Holiday of a Lifetime
Carla’s journey and results were so impressive that she was crowned Transformation of the Year 2022, winning a once-in-a-lifetime holiday to Barbados for herself (and one for her therapist Hollie too!)
“It truly was a holiday of a lifetime. Real people really do win—I still can’t believe it.”
