Destino Says...

Lasers may have got a bad rep in the late 90s/early 00s – they were extreme and required some serious downtime – but Debbie Thomas saw their potential and as technology improved has helped pioneer an entirely new way of treating the skin. The result? With over 20 years of skincare experience (including classical massage training), she’s now the go-to for those looking for seriously results-driven facials without lengthy downtime.

Appointments here work slightly differently – while you select a facial for your specific concerns (their signature DNA Essential is particularly popular, while younger clients love their DNA Teen Clean), you also select the amount of time you have, or can afford, and they do as much as they can within that time. Each facial is entirely tailored but expect a mix of light peels, LED treatments, masks and of course, laser, within that time. If you’ve battled with pigmentation, rosacea, scarring or breakouts and are yet to find a remedy, Debbie and her team (there are only four other therapists, so even if you can’t see Debbie herself, you’re in expert hands) can work miracles.

For brides to be out there, book in to see Debbie at least 6 months pre-wedding, to allow plenty of time for a full transformation, or if you have to be camera ready imminently, they can tailor all of their treatments so that they’re suitable to have before big events.
