D.Thomas Clinic

Could you actually be doing too much for your skin? 👀

We love seeing more people take a genuine interest in their skin health, but looking after your skin doesn’t have to mean doing absolutely everything.

In fact, some of the best results we see in clinic come from clients who have found a routine that works for them and stick to a consistent treatment plan.

Your skin’s needs change over time, which is why we assess it at every appointment rather than following the same treatment protocol each time.

A little less experimenting, a little more consistency. We’re very much here for it 🤍

Of course you can! 🫶

Some people might not like this… 🫣

1. Buying the highest % you can find.

Especially with retinoids. Stronger doesn’t always mean better for your skin, and you don’t need to keep increasing the strength because someone online has. There should be a reason beyond the % on the bottle.

2. Using exfoliating pads, then exfoliating again.
An easy one to miss. If your toner pads contain exfoliating acids, they already count. Adding another acid afterwards could mean doubling up, particularly if you’re also using a retinoid.

3. Calling every reaction “purging”.
Persistent burning, soreness or redness shouldn’t be dismissed as part of the process. If it’s a prescribed product, speak to your prescriber. You don’t need to quietly put up with discomfort.

4. Assuming “natural” means better for your skin.
Beef tallow is a good example: the confidence around it has outpaced the research. An ingredient’s origin tells you very little about how well the finished product will suit your skin.

5. Giving a serum a week before moving on to the next recommendation.
We understand the temptation. But many results take weeks or months, and changing everything makes it hard to know what’s helping. Unless something is causing a reaction, give it a fair chance before deciding it isn’t working.

Which skincare advice are you tired of hearing?🥲

LaseMD Ultra is one of our most popular treatments in clinic, and it’s no surprise. We love the way it brings together laser and skincare in a powerful way🫧

The laser produces micro channels, helping the serum we apply absorb 90% more effectively than topical application. For this client, Daisy used vitamin C to help brighten the skin and support collagen production🧬

The little ampoule you see spinning? That’s the serum being mixed fresh, ready to apply after the laser.

You’ll notice there’s some redness straight after the treatment. But after a few days, you’ll start to see visibly smoother and more radiant skin✨

If summer has left your skin looking a little dull or pigment has started to resurface, autumn is a great time to chat with us about your options.

For any enquiries, just send us a DM 💌

🤌

This client came in the goal of improving firmness, particularly around the jawline.

Polina built a bespoke laser protocol around what her skin needed on the day, combining laser technologies to support collagen and elastin & targeted treatment for porphyrins and pigmentation⚡️

At the clinic, we don’t use fixed formulas. Instead, we opt for expert-led plans which can be adapted to the skin in front of us on the day. That’s the DT difference🤍

If your skin journey starts without a proper assessment…
It’s usually a red flag 🚩

Consultations allow us to understand the fundamentals: your skin history, your daily habits, what you’re using at home and what we can see through professional analysis.

Together, these details help us understand what your skin actually needs🤍

An excellent treatment plan starts with an honest conversation✨

p.s - SPF everyday, not just on holiday!⛱️
