Emily Jayne Skin Revision

Blood work is not a marketing technique. It is a clinical skill. 🩸

I say this as someone who first trained in blood work and phlebotomy over 12 years ago - long before I ever stepped into the world of skincare. I then spent five years qualifying and working as a skin specialist, dedicating every single day of my career exclusively to acne and women’s functional health. Only after all of that - after years of layering clinical knowledge upon clinical knowledge - did I feel ready to begin incorporating blood analysis into client care.

I approach every case with immense care and responsibility.

So when I see blood work being offered as a new service by skin professionals who are sometimes less than a year into their career - I have to say something. Not out of gatekeeping. But because I know exactly how much knowledge, time and practice it takes to do this safely, and I know what happens when it isn’t done safely.

This carousel is for two people: the client who deserves to know what questions to ask, and the skin professional who deserves honest guidance on when the time is right.

Swipe to understand why this matters for your safety and for the integrity of our industry. 👉🏼

If you’re navigating acne and want to work with a specialist who has spent over a decade building the clinical foundation to support you both topically and internally - my DMs are open. 💌

“But you don’t look like you have PCOS.”
If I had £1 for every time I’ve heard that I would not own a clinic 🙉

The truth is, there isn’t a “PCOS look.”

In fact, many experts are now proposing the name PMOS - Polycystic Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome - because it better reflects what this condition actually is - a complex metabolic and hormonal disorder, not simply something that affects the ovaries.

My hormone picture is complicated by high prolactin, which has its own impact on ovulation, hormone signalling and ultimately my skin.

As an acne specialist, this is exactly why I never look at the skin in isolation.

Acne is often the final symptom of something happening internally-not the starting point.

If you’ve ever been dismissed because you “don’t look like” you have a condition, I hope this reminds you that appearances tell us very little.

Your symptoms deserve to be taken seriously ✨🤍🥹

One of the biggest misconceptions about acne is that if it isn’t improving, you simply need stronger skincare.

Millie’s journey is a perfect example of why I don’t believe that.

By the time she came to me, she’d already done what most people do. She’d seen a dermatologist, tried antibiotics, used prescription strength retinoids and followed all the advice she’d been given. Yet her skin remained severely congested, inflamed and covered in post-inflammatory redness.

With her wedding getting closer, the pressure to “fix” her skin was enormous. But instead of asking, “What should we put on your skin?” I asked a different question…

“Why is your skin behaving like this?”

That question changed everything.

As we looked deeper into her lifestyle, routine and overall health, we started connecting the dots. One of the things we discussed was her training load. Millie was regularly swimming, cycling and running at a high intensity. Exercise is incredibly beneficial, but when combined with other underlying drivers, a consistently high physiological stress load can contribute to inflammation in some people. It wasn’t the cause of her acne - but it was one piece of a much bigger puzzle.

That’s exactly what Acne Bootcamp® is about.

No guessing. Not throwing products at your skin. Not chasing the next trend.

Understanding your skin, your triggers and building a plan that actually makes sense for you.

The final photos in this carousel were taken on Millie’s wedding day, we didn’t find a miracle treatment or product but we finally understood what her skin had been trying to tell us all along.

If you’re stuck in the cycle of trying product after product and wondering why nothing seems to work, maybe it’s time to stop asking, “What should I use?” and start asking, “Why is this happening?”

Sometimes, that’s the question that changes everything

Same skin. Six different root causes. ⬇️

This is why a generic acne routine will never get you lasting results.

Last week alone I saw clients with hormonal imbalances, diet driven IGF-1, pill related nutrient depletion, gut inflammation, a damaged skin barrier, and a thyroid issue - all presenting with the same congested, inflamed skin.

The carousel breaks down exactly what I found in each one and how we treated them.

We have discounted enrolment slots available for Acne Awareness Month inside the Advanced Acne Academy with Acne Training | UK’s First Accredited Functional Acne Program.
