Anon says: I have been increasingly concerned about my ‘permanent frown’ for years and eventually saw Claire for Botox – the results are brilliant and completely natural, I am delighted.
Maria L says: I feel compelled to write about the great results I have received from Clare McLoughlin because I was so surprised at such a great service and resulting positive effects from her treatments. In my line of work, it is so important to look good and I have to say, I do. I have had consultations and wrinkle relaxing treatments for a number of years and have used a number of practitioners because I was never quite as happy with the results as I expected. They didn’t seem to listen to what I was looking for. I was then introduced to Clare through a mutual friend and decided to try her out. I must admit that I was expecting a similar experience to my previous encounters with aesthetic practitioners but how wrong I was. Clare spent time with me to find out the exact results I was looking for and I immediately felt confident. Not only is her bedside manner excellent, but she also has a way of delivering the injections with very little pain. I was most impressed that she actually said no to a request because it wouldn’t have worked in my case. That really built my trust in her. Clare takes a real interest in how I feel and what I am looking for. I recently had a thread face lift because I trust her so much and the results are subtly impressive. I don’t feel that I have changed, just look smoother and softer in my face. So people tell me I look great. Nobody would know that I have had such a treatment, which is just what I wanted. I will stay with Clare as I have found the professional and personal solution to my beauty needs in her, and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
Mandy K says: I was nervous upon first visit, but was greeted with a friendly and professional atmosphere. It’s still early days but am already starting to see and feel positive results.
Clare P says: The whole experience was professional and made us feel at ease. Realistic expectations. Def will be back
Nicole T says: Clare is an outstanding practitioner who is sensitive to your individual needs. She promotes her various products with a high level of knowledge but you never feel pressurised into trying other products. She is extremely skilful and patient when treating you. I would highly recommend ABM to anyone considering any non-surgical cosmetic treatment.
Sophie S says: I first met Clare during my basic aesthetics training at Cosmetic Courses, where she is an advanced trainer. Her teaching was excellent and I booked for several more sessions with Clare in more advanced techniques to become more confident and to be able to offer a wider range of treatments. The tips, tricks and advice Clare gave me during those sessions have stuck with me. They have taught me the skills to offer a very personal and effective treatment to my patients. I’m a firm believer in knowing how the treatments I offer feel, and there is no one I would trust more than Clare to treat me. I had always wanted more definition to my upper lip – whilst it had volume I just felt the edge was a little flat. Clare has done a lovely job – no-one would guess I had filler in my lips, but I can tell the difference. Subtle but so effective. I love them! Thanks x
Rachel R says: Superb attention, treatments tailored to individual needs, help & advice freely given following treatment.
Vicki L says: I wanted advice on my adult acne. Having never suffered from spots it was really getting me down. I have already seen improvements in my skin based on the skin regime recommended and it has only been a couple of weeks since my consultation. I am very impressed with the service.
Ella C says: I don’t normally write reviews but Clare McLoughlin has been a life saver! I came to see her after having a disastrous treatment at another Marlow clinic where the person bruised me badly, and worse dropped my right brow which left me looking lopsided like I’d had a stroke – I was gutted!!! Lovely, lovely Clare was so knowledgeable and was able to sort me out. (I hadn’t realised that Clare has been teaching wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers for many years). Anyway, Clare did some advanced technique injecting and I was amazed that she was able to bring my brow back up. I would never go anywhere else now. I have had subsequent treatments with her including skin needling, further wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers to my lips and cheeks. I am having a peel next, and my leg veins treated this autumn. I can recommend Clare because she knows what she is doing, actually cares about you, and always makes me look and feel great without anyone knowing that I have had a treatment. When I have a treatment with Clare I come away full of confidence.
Helen F says: I am a GP, and previously had my consultations for wrinkle relaxing treatments at a local clinic.I first met Clare when I trained in Aesthetics myself, and she was my trainer. I was very impressed with her skill and knowledge and began seeing her privately for my treatments. I have been performing wrinkle relaxing and filler treatments on my clients for some years now, but I still go to Clare for my consultations and treatments, and I think that is a testament to her skill and professionalism. She does my upper and lower face wrinkle relaxing and cheek, and mid face augmentation with fillers. Clare’s results always exceed expectations, and I’m always amazed at how great she makes me look! I will continue to have my treatments with her and would highly recommend her to friends.
Sandra M says: I have only great word to have about treatment, outcome and prices. Also I really appreciate the honesty of what us and not possible and expected. All treatments I had cane try to the clinic word I also appreciate the time keeping and reminders which makes everything really stress free. Thank you for all.
Anon says: I cannot recommend Clare highly enough, she has really helped me to manage my skin and better understand how to look after it as I age. She has a lovely calm and trusting manner so I always feel confident seeking her advice.
Ros K says: Prior to seeing Clare I had never experienced any aesthetic treatments. I approached Clare because she had medical training and bona fide qualifications that inspired trust. Two years after my second child was born (2004) I started seeing Clare , initially for lip fillers. I was so delighted with the subtle effect that I felt confident enough to have a consultation for wrinkle relaxing treatments as I had deep wrinkles on my forehead. The transformation was immediate and I have been treated by Clare ever since, more than happy with the way she keeps my face looking fresh but not ‘processed. Her insistence that her work is about looking natural yet the best it can be reinforces my conviction that she has my best interests at heart. I recently had lip fillers again after a 6 year break and am utterly delighted with the results. This enhancement will be part of my regular treatments alongside the wrinkle relaxing treatments. I cannot recommend Clare highly enough for beautiful , not extreme, facial enhancement. I trust her implicitly with my own appearance and would be happy to recommend her to anyone looking to improve their own appearance.
Anon says: Clare is very professional, she makes you feel relaxed and confident. The treatment is not only cosmetic, it builds up your self-esteem.
Lesley C says: I am 50 years old mother of three grown up children living in Hertfordshire. I work in a position where my appearance has always been very important. Earlier in my life I suffered from adult acne which left me with some skin damage exacerbated by sun and antibiotics. My skin specialist Dr Ravi Ratanavel recommended Clare to me and I have been seeing her for over ten years. I have always been impressed by Clare’s friendly professionalism and she has always put me at ease, especially in the early days when I was unsure of the processes. My initial course of derma abrasion and chemical skin peel produced superb results and I now have a smoother and more even skin tone. I have since had a consultation and wrinkle relaxing treatments to smooth my deep frown lines and fillers to soften a few lines. Now that Clare has moved to a new location I shall keep following. I don’t see me changing to anyone else in the future. I will always recommend Clare as I know she is very professional and my history will be kept secret.
Anon says: I had Botox treatment with Clare and found it a good experience. I had no pain and the treatment was very successful . It made a great improvement to my lines and it made me feel much happier with my skin.
Jenny W says: Very high quality of treatments and also a vast range of aesthetic treatment available. Highly recommended- a true professional.
Sally B says: I’ve finished my third Intracel treatment with Clare, and I notice a definite improvement in facial tautness. Clare gave me lots of information on what I should expect from this treatment. She was ( and is) always happy to reassure me and I feel I’m in safe hands with her.
Anon says: I was nervous to consider aesthetic treatments, however, the treatments I have received to date have been explained to me in full, including side effects. I have experienced a highly professional, skilled and well informed approach and have been very pleased with the results. I am moving forward slowly and have a realistic plan which I hope will improve skin condition and reduce some lines. I am happy in my own skin!
MJ T says: I visited for a non surgical consultation. Clare was absolutely lovely and very honest with me. Despite wanting work on my nose, Clare said I didn’t need it and to really think carefully. Anybody who is considering non surgical work should visit here, they clearly don’t carry out procedures just because or for the money. They genuinely care about their patients.
Gemma P says: I have spoken to Clare McLoughlin on several occasions about the condition of my skin, and have received clear and positive guidance every single time – Clare is a knowledgeable, professional and caring individual, thanks for all your help!
Vikkie S says: Really pleased with the treatment and advice given by Clare who listened and did exactly what I asked for. Would recommend Clare to anyone.
Gill J says: Clare is an extremely competent, knowledgeable and supportive practitioner. She explains each treatment so you know exactly what to expect during the procedure and what results to expect. She makes me feel informed and as relaxed as possible. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wants to look ‘better’ than they currently do. I will certainly be returning to her for future treatments.
Lucy D says: Claire is great and makes you feel really relaxed, always makes sure you’re as well informed as possible. The treatments are also exceptional.
O Palmer says: Amazing as always. Left feeling so much better and feeling fab. Would recommend Claire to everyone. She’s the best in the business.
Karla H says: I have been seeing Clare for just over a year and recommend her highly. She takes detailed notes and spends time explaining the treatment and the aftercare and expected results. I was impressed with the aftercare service provided and am delighted with the results of Profhilo and of the Bocouture wrinkle relaxing treatment, the Fire and Ice medical facial is also a regular must have! If you are looking for an experienced professional service then this Nurse Prescriber is the person to see.
Kin S says: Great.
Jo R says: Brilliant
Nicole C says: Felt really happy with my treatment, Clare made me feel at ease the whole treatment and afterwards reassured and looked after me when I had a lot of swelling. Really happy with my result and would definitely recommend and be returning
Sylvia A says: On last visit Clare noticed a lesion on my scalp and suggested that I got a further opinion, for which I was very grateful. It was cancerous and successfully removed by a skin specialist cancer surgeon. Thankfully ,today all went well.
Laura E says: Clare made me feel so welcome and relaxed for my first appointment. Clare only recommended treatments that she knew would make a genuine difference. I will definitely be back. Thank you Clare x
JD says: Clare is so knowledgeable regarding the best way to achieve a natural look. Fantastic service and really pleased with results. Highly recommend.
Sonia K says: Claire is very professional and knowledgeable. She has helped me understand my skin better and her advice has been invaluable. I am now using products that are excellent for my skin and I feel better for it!
Dawn B says: Great results and service would use again if needed .
Felicity W says: Really happy with my experience and absolutely love the iS Clinical skincare range. Thank you.
Judith C says: Clare is a true professional. She is very highly qualified and is also a trainer of other practitioners in aesthetic beauty. If you are considering any type of aesthetic treatment, Clare should be your first port of call. Appearance Based Medicine is not just for people looking for Botox and Fillers. The Fire and Ice Facial is fantastic for rejuvenating tired skin and one of my favourites. Whatever you’re considering I would highly recommend having a consultation with Clare
Clare C says: Another wonderful Fire & Ice Facial with Dermabrasion – my skin feels amazing! And some expert advice on skincare too for my particular skin type. So pleased to have found someone so knowledgeable in my area. I’ll be back very soon. Thank you 🙂
Calvin S says: Excellent
Sandra M says: Appearance Based Medicine is one of the best provider of beauty services I ever used. Claire gave me many treatments from Botox, fillers, ice and fire and she remodelled my face perfectly. It was amazing as now my face is not only lifted and contoured but it is really symmetrical which was not the case before. That takes real talent and patience. Claire always explains the treatment and she would not perform a treatment if she thinks it will not provide the expected results. But she always finds another solution. What is not to really love about it? I strongly recommend Claire. You will be in the most safe and talented hands.
Amanda M says: Clare is approachable and friendly and always on time with appointments. She was careful to explain both the risks as well as the benefits of the procedure to make sure I fully understood what I was paying for and she does not oversell. Treatment itself was carried out very professionally and I felt reassured by the fact that Clare is a fully-trained, registered nurse. Aftercare notes were thorough and a free check-up to ensure there are no complications was also very good. I would recommend a consultation with Clare before you choose anyone else.
Carmel G says: I’ve been seeing Clare for several years for various treatments – Botox, fillers, facials etc and I have always been pleased with the results. What I particularly like about Clare is that she takes the time to listen and understand my concerns and advises on the best treatment. She will also advise against treatments if she thinks they will not meet “unrealistic expectations”. I was really pleased with the threadlift procedure I had a couple of years ago and would consider this again. Clare makes you feel very relaxed – she’s very professional, you never feel rushed and I trust her completely to advise on the best treatment for a specific area.
Julie T says: Excellent
Laura A says: Thank you Claire! I am so incredibly happy with my new nose. You made feel comfortable at all time, and respected your professional and honest opinion. I will definitely be back to see you in the future

Mrs Davies says: I was really impressed with Clare from my initial consultation through to the treatment. It never felt rushed and I immediately felt assured with her approach. She is obviously very competent in her field with extensive experience. She was highly recommended and now I understand why.
Susan Matthews says: I was warmly met and made to feel that my concerns were being taken seriously. I was talked through the treatment and the products without feeling under any pressure. I felt valued as a client. The receptionist was warm and friendly, the reception area uncluttered and welcoming. The clinic was immaculate and the Cosmetic Nurse was gentle in her approach and highly knowledgeable about treatments and products.
Charlotte Poole says: My skin has never felt so healthy and blemish free since I started using the products prescribed by Clare. I was relieved to discover that my skin wasn’t as damaged as I felt it was and that there was something practical I could use before I needed a chemical peel. Clare took the time to listen to my story and made me feel like there was someone who was interested in making me look and feel my best. Thanks so much Clare

This has enabled me to have complete confidence in the medical side of my treatment. As Clare’s business has grown and I now see her regularly for other treatments which gives me confidence that I look my best. She is now in lovely premises in Marlow and her team have managed to keep the personal touch and make you feel special. I wish them every success in the future.
Jackie. B says: I wanted my lips plumped but was always worried they would look unnatural an meeting clare she assured me thats not what she wanted to do + only would go with a natural look, I had them done + I love them.

Victoria Hunter says: I have always been a bit dubious about having any cosmetic procedure but as a permanent frowner I wanted to be frown free and Clare was recommended to me. She instantly put me at ease and was very informative. Also knowing all of her qualifications and experience gave me confidence as you hear so many horror stories out there. In a nutshell Clare has provided me with great natural looking results and I highly recommend her to others.
Ella says: I don’t normally write reviews but Clare McLoughlin has been a life saver! I came to see her after having a disastrous treatment at another Marlow clinic where the person bruised me badly, and worse dropped my right brow which left me looking lopsided like I’d had a stroke – I was gutted!!!
Lovely, lovely Clare was so knowledgeable and was able to sort me out. (I hadn’t realised that Clare has been teaching wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers for many years).
Anyway, Clare did some advanced technique injecting and I was amazed that she was able to bring my brow back up. I would never go anywhere else now. I have had subsequent treatments with her including skin needling, further wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers to my lips and cheeks. I am having a peel next, and my leg veins treated this autumn. I can recommend Clare because she knows what she is doing, actually cares about you, and always makes me look and feel great without anyone knowing that I have had a treatment. When I have a treatment with Clare I come away full of confidence.

Sanda Morar says: I have known Clare for many years and she not only makes me feel good, but she also makes me feel in very safe hands – Clare has a real talent to use the right treatment at the right time.
Her clinic is awesome and the opening time very generous and accommodating.
I also put my (adult) daughter in her hands for acne scarring treatment, and I have no hesitation that Clare does the right thing for her skin.
I sincerely recommend Clare.
Sandra says: I have been in Clare’s hands for many years and I not only look good but I always feel safe and taken care off. Clare has a real talent in selecting the right treatment at the right time, her clinic is excellent and the opening times could not be more generous. I had botox, fillers, intracell and specialist home treatment kits. I sincerely recommend Clare’ talent and treatments.
R.Rutland says: Very pleased with treatment & results. Clare’s Thorough Aftercare advice following treatment a godsend, very reassuring & professional. No hesitation to recommend.
Samantha Murphy says: As a beautician I have good knowledge of skincare. My consultation began with a skin analysis using a machine which showed skin damage not visible to the eye. I was pleased to see that my regular use of sunscreen had paid off!!! I had booked in to have the Fire and Ice medical facial to resurface and rehydrate my skin. The results were beautifully soft, smooth, radiant skin. Clare was professional and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable, I was made even more relaxed by the gentle background music. I did not feel pressured to buy any products and left with a goodie bag of samples to try at home. All in all a very pleasant experience and I will definitely be back!!!
carmel says: Being new to this industry and the various procedures available, I can not rate Clare highly enough. She offered me facts and information based upon what I presented her with. I had always avoided approaching such services because of the horror stories and a reluctance to be greeted by over the top sales people. Clare is medically trained, professional and I came to trust her sufficiently to have a treatment. For which I was delighted with the results. As a mother of two, safety and results were my priority. Clare excelled in these areas and I would gladly recommend her as a practitioner. Brilliant. Thank you
Sarah Hill says: Very knowledgable and professional
Orla Palmer says: Very informative, very knowledgable. Thoroughly recommend Clare
Cara bonaventura says: Excellent professional service, very pleased with my new lips!!!
Sylvia A says: As always, very pleased.
Lesley conybeare says: I have been having treatment with Clare for over 10 years and can thoroughly recommend her. She is extremely experienced, and her results are fantastic, and above all she is kind and friendly, she has become a good friend.
Ruth Atkins says: Excellent treatment, very professional. Would recommend Appearance Based Medicine. As Registered Nurse myself I felt very reassured that Clare was very knowledgeable and experienced in the treatments I received, it was obvious to me that she had my interests at heart all the way through. Not only did Clare tell me which treatments would benefit me personally she explained why others were not appropriate. Good clear explanations given throughout. Thank you.
Charles Farleigh says: Removed all my nerves and provided an outstanding service. Highly recommended
Louise Conant says: Clare is patient and kind, and I value her advise and high standard of practice and experience.

I have been increasingly concerned about my ‘permanent frown’ for years and eventually saw Claire for Botox – the results are brilliant and completely natural, I am delighted.
I feel compelled to write about the great results I have received from Clare McLoughlin because I was so surprised at such a great service and resulting positive effects from her treatments. In my line of work, it is so important to look good and I have to say, I do. I have had consultations and wrinkle relaxing treatments for a number of years and have used a number of practitioners because I was never quite as happy with the results as I expected. They didn’t seem to listen to what I was looking for. I was then introduced to Clare through a mutual friend and decided to try her out.

Not only is her bedside manner excellent, but she also has a way of delivering the injections with very little pain. I was most impressed that she actually said no to a request because it wouldn’t have worked in my case. That really built my trust in her. Clare takes a real interest in how I feel and what I am looking for. I recently had a thread face lift because I trust her so much and the results are subtly impressive. I don’t feel that I have changed, just look smoother and softer in my face. So people tell me I look great. Nobody would know that I have had such a treatment, which is just what I wanted. I will stay with Clare as I have found the professional and personal solution to my beauty needs in her, and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
I was nervous upon first visit, but was greeted with a friendly and professional atmosphere. It’s still early days but am already starting to see and feel positive results.
The whole experience was professional and made us feel at ease. Realistic expectations. Def will be back
Clare is an outstanding practitioner who is sensitive to your individual needs.

I wanted advice on my adult acne. Having never suffered from spots it was really getting me down. I have already seen improvements in my skin based on the skin regime recommended and it has only been a couple of weeks since my consultation. I am very impressed with the service.

Lovely, lovely Clare was so knowledgeable and was able to sort me out. (I hadn’t realised that Clare has been teaching wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers for many years). Anyway, Clare did some advanced technique injecting and I was amazed that she was able to bring my brow back up. I would never go anywhere else now. I have had subsequent treatments with her including skin needling, further wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers to my lips and cheeks. I am having a peel next, and my leg veins treated this autumn. I can recommend Clare because she knows what she is doing, actually cares about you, and always makes me look and feel great without anyone knowing that I have had a treatment. When I have a treatment with Clare I come away full of confidence.
I am a GP, and previously had my consultations for wrinkle relaxing treatments at a local clinic.I first met Clare when I trained in Aesthetics myself, and she was my trainer. I was very impressed with her skill and knowledge and began seeing her privately for my treatments. I have been performing wrinkle relaxing and filler treatments on my clients for some years now, but I still go to Clare for my consultations and treatments, and I think that is a testament to her skill and professionalism. She does my upper and lower face wrinkle relaxing and cheek, and mid face augmentation with fillers. Clare’s results always exceed expectations, and I’m always amazed at how great she makes me look! I will continue to have my treatments with her and would highly recommend her to friends.
I have only great word to have about treatment, outcome and prices. Also I really appreciate the honesty of what us and not possible and expected. All treatments I had cane try to the clinic word I also appreciate the time keeping and reminders which makes everything really stress free. Thank you for all.
I cannot recommend Clare highly enough, she has really helped me to manage my skin and better understand how to look after it as I age. She has a lovely calm and trusting manner so I always feel confident seeking her advice.
Prior to seeing Clare I had never experienced any aesthetic treatments. I approached Clare because she had medical training and bona fide qualifications that inspired trust. Two years after my second child was born (2004) I started seeing Clare , initially for lip fillers. I was so delighted with the subtle effect that I felt confident enough to have a consultation for wrinkle relaxing treatments as I had deep wrinkles on my forehead. The transformation was immediate and I have been treated by Clare ever since, more than happy with the way she keeps my face looking fresh but not ‘processed. Her insistence that her work is about looking natural yet the best it can be reinforces my conviction that she has my best interests at heart. I recently had lip fillers again after a 6 year break and am utterly delighted with the results. This enhancement will be part of my regular treatments alongside the wrinkle relaxing treatments. I cannot recommend Clare highly enough for beautiful , not extreme, facial enhancement. I trust her implicitly with my own appearance and would be happy to recommend her to anyone looking to improve their own appearance.
Clare is very professional, she makes you feel relaxed and confident. The treatment is not only cosmetic, it builds up your self-esteem.
I am 50 years old mother of three grown up children living in Hertfordshire. I work in a position where my appearance has always been very important. Earlier in my life I suffered from adult acne which left me with some skin damage exacerbated by sun and antibiotics. My skin specialist Dr Ravi Ratanavel recommended Clare to me and I have been seeing her for over ten years. I have always been impressed by Clare’s friendly professionalism and she has always put me at ease, especially in the early days when I was unsure of the processes. My initial course of derma abrasion and chemical skin peel produced superb results and I now have a smoother and more even skin tone. I have since had a consultation and wrinkle relaxing treatments to smooth my deep frown lines and fillers to soften a few lines. Now that Clare has moved to a new location I shall keep following. I don’t see me changing to anyone else in the future. I will always recommend Clare as I know she is very professional and my history will be kept secret.
I had Botox treatment with Clare and found it a good experience. I had no pain and the treatment was very successful . It made a great improvement to my lines and it made me feel much happier with my skin.
Very high quality of treatments and also a vast range of aesthetic treatment available. Highly recommended- a true professional.
I’ve finished my third Intracel treatment with Clare, and I notice a definite improvement in facial tautness. Clare gave me lots of information on what I should expect from this treatment. She was ( and is) always happy to reassure me and I feel I’m in safe hands with her.
I was nervous to consider aesthetic treatments, however, the treatments I have received to date have been explained to me in full, including side effects. I have experienced a highly professional, skilled and well informed approach and have been very pleased with the results. I am moving forward slowly and have a realistic plan which I hope will improve skin condition and reduce some lines. I am happy in my own skin!
I visited for a non surgical consultation. Clare was absolutely lovely and very honest with me. Despite wanting work on my nose, Clare said I didn’t need it and to really think carefully. Anybody who is considering non surgical work should visit here, they clearly don’t carry out procedures just because or for the money. They genuinely care about their patients.
I have spoken to Clare McLoughlin on several occasions about the condition of my skin, and have received clear and positive guidance every single time – Clare is a knowledgeable, professional and caring individual, thanks for all your help!
Really pleased with the treatment and advice given by Clare who listened and did exactly what I asked for. Would recommend Clare to anyone.
Clare is an extremely competent, knowledgeable and supportive practitioner. She explains each treatment so you know exactly what to expect during the procedure and what results to expect. She makes me feel informed and as relaxed as possible. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wants to look ‘better’ than they currently do. I will certainly be returning to her for future treatments.
Claire is great and makes you feel really relaxed, always makes sure you’re as well informed as possible. The treatments are also exceptional.
Amazing as always. Left feeling so much better and feeling fab. Would recommend Claire to everyone. She’s the best in the business.
I have been seeing Clare for just over a year and recommend her highly. She takes detailed notes and spends time explaining the treatment and the aftercare and expected results. I was impressed with the aftercare service provided and am delighted with the results of Profhilo and of the Bocouture wrinkle relaxing treatment, the Fire and Ice medical facial is also a regular must have! If you are looking for an experienced professional service then this Nurse Prescriber is the person to see.
Great.
Brilliant
Felt really happy with my treatment, Clare made me feel at ease the whole treatment and afterwards reassured and looked after me when I had a lot of swelling. Really happy with my result and would definitely recommend and be returning
On last visit Clare noticed a lesion on my scalp and suggested that I got a further opinion, for which I was very grateful. It was cancerous and successfully removed by a skin specialist cancer surgeon. Thankfully ,today all went well.
Clare made me feel so welcome and relaxed for my first appointment. Clare only recommended treatments that she knew would make a genuine difference. I will definitely be back. Thank you Clare x
Clare is so knowledgeable regarding the best way to achieve a natural look. Fantastic service and really pleased with results. Highly recommend.
Claire is very professional and knowledgeable. She has helped me understand my skin better and her advice has been invaluable. I am now using products that are excellent for my skin and I feel better for it!
Great results and service would use again if needed .
Really happy with my experience and absolutely love the iS Clinical skincare range. Thank you.
Clare is a true professional. She is very highly qualified and is also a trainer of other practitioners in aesthetic beauty. If you are considering any type of aesthetic treatment, Clare should be your first port of call. Appearance Based Medicine is not just for people looking for Botox and Fillers. The Fire and Ice Facial is fantastic for rejuvenating tired skin and one of my favourites. Whatever you’re considering I would highly recommend having a consultation with Clare
Another wonderful Fire & Ice Facial with Dermabrasion – my skin feels amazing! And some expert advice on skincare too for my particular skin type. So pleased to have found someone so knowledgeable in my area. I’ll be back very soon. Thank you 🙂
Excellent
Appearance Based Medicine is one of the best provider of beauty services I ever used. Claire gave me many treatments from Botox, fillers, ice and fire and she remodelled my face perfectly. It was amazing as now my face is not only lifted and contoured but it is really symmetrical which was not the case before. That takes real talent and patience. Claire always explains the treatment and she would not perform a treatment if she thinks it will not provide the expected results. But she always finds another solution. What is not to really love about it? I strongly recommend Claire. You will be in the most safe and talented hands.
Clare is approachable and friendly and always on time with appointments. She was careful to explain both the risks as well as the benefits of the procedure to make sure I fully understood what I was paying for and she does not oversell. Treatment itself was carried out very professionally and I felt reassured by the fact that Clare is a fully-trained, registered nurse. Aftercare notes were thorough and a free check-up to ensure there are no complications was also very good. I would recommend a consultation with Clare before you choose anyone else.
I’ve been seeing Clare for several years for various treatments – Botox, fillers, facials etc and I have always been pleased with the results. What I particularly like about Clare is that she takes the time to listen and understand my concerns and advises on the best treatment. She will also advise against treatments if she thinks they will not meet “unrealistic expectations”. I was really pleased with the threadlift procedure I had a couple of years ago and would consider this again. Clare makes you feel very relaxed – she’s very professional, you never feel rushed and I trust her completely to advise on the best treatment for a specific area.
Excellent
Thank you Claire! I am so incredibly happy with my new nose. You made feel comfortable at all time, and respected your professional and honest opinion. I will definitely be back to see you in the future
I was nervous upon first visit, but was greeted with a friendly and professional atmosphere. It’s still early days but am already starting to see and feel positive results.
The whole experience was professional and made us feel at ease. Realistic expectations. Def will be back 🙂
Clare always so helpful and flexible. as well as knowledgeable and so gives confidence in her ability for treatments.
Clare is an outstanding practitioner who is sensitive to your individual needs. She promotes her various products with a high level of knowledge but you never feel pressurised into trying other products. She is extremely skilful and patient when treating you. I have always had an excellent experience and I would highly recommend ABM to anyone considering any non-surgical cosmetic treatment.
Clare is a lovely professional lady who gives dear and practical advice. I have been having aesthetics for many years prior to meeting Clare and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Facial contouring with filler. Results fabulous – exceeded expectations. A real confidence booster!
I have found Clare to be professional and highly skilled at her job. I am very pleased with the results. Clare assessed my needs totally correctly.
I cannot recommend Clare highly enough, she has really helped me to manage my skin and better understand how to look after it as I age. She has a lovely calm and trusting manner so I always feel confident seeking her advice.

I was really impressed with Clare from my initial consultation through to the treatment. It never felt rushed and I immediately felt assured with her approach. She is obviously very competent in her field with extensive experience. She was highly recommended and now I understand why.
I was warmly met and made to feel that my concerns were being taken seriously. I was talked through the treatment and the products without feeling under any pressure. I felt valued as a client. The receptionist was warm and friendly, the reception area uncluttered and welcoming. The clinic was immaculate and the Cosmetic Nurse was gentle in her approach and highly knowledgeable about treatments and products.
My skin has never felt so healthy and blemish free since I started using the products prescribed by Clare. I was relieved to discover that my skin wasn’t as damaged as I felt it was and that there was something practical I could use before I needed a chemical peel. Clare took the time to listen to my story and made me feel like there was someone who was interested in making me look and feel my best. Thanks so much Clare

Superb attention, treatments tailored to individual needs, help & advice freely given following treatment
I had Botox treatment with clare and found it a good experience. I had no pain and the treatment was very successful . It made a great improvement to my lines and it made me feel much happier with my skin.
I have been increasingly concerned about my ‘permanent frown’ for years and eventually saw Claire for Botox – the results are brilliant and completely natural, I am delighted.
Takes off some years but still look like me !
Very pleased with service. Will highly recommend.
Despite my initial paranoia in the first week after PDO thread treatment, I am really please with the results a month on.
Claire was very friendly, caring and professional. The treatment was carried out efficiently. I am really pleased with the results and the care that was taken to guide me through what I required and what I might expect to happen. Thank you Claire.
Claire put me at ease and was very professional and listened to what my expectations were. Claire exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend her.
Very professional consultation, all my concerns and questions answered thoroughly. Very pleased with with the results, will be returning for other treatments very soon.
Clare is a master at reassurance for the “novice” patient.
As you hear many horror stories regarding beauty treatments going wrong I was immediately put at ease with Clare who is very professional and knowledgeable. I have been coming for over a year now and have received fantastic results.
Clare was very professional and informative from the first appointment + throughout treatment. Will happily use again + fully recommend to others.
I came to see Clare because my skin was bad, she was very helpful and kind. Her advice was to give me fish oil to help my skin and a course of dermabrasion. I am really happy because now my skin is now great.
Very pleasant first consultation
As always Clare was a true professional. She talks you through everything you need to know, has an amazing bedside manner and talks you through every step, never rushing. Amazing! 5 stars!
I had a complete intracell treatment, botox, fillers, facials. The results are amazing. I had very bad acne scaring that is now almost gone. The skin looks very young as in my 30s and I am now in my 50s. Clare has reconstructed my forehead from a very wrinkly and uneven to a perfect looking one. The botox always lasts almosts 4 months. Thank you Clare
I have been going to Clare for 6 years now and have always been delighted with the treatments for botox. Clare is a professional – you are in excellent hands!!
Very happy I thank you.
Absolutely delighted with the result – hadn’t expected it to be this good, thankyou
Excellent consultation, Clare was very informative about all stages of the treatment.
v. pleased.
Delighted with the results, feel 10 years younger. Claire is an amazing face artist and I trust her completely.
I am happy with the treatment provided and all the good information about the treatment.
V. professional and understanding, thank you
Great advice and felt comfortable and relaxed about the procedure and aftercare. Highly recommended.
– eye pads to protect my eyes were great

I have been coming to see Claire for 15 years and always been very pleased – which is why I return!
Very good care and attention. Made me feel very comfortable and relaxed.
Clare is absolutely wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble and gave me more than enough time. I am very pleased with the results and will be returning for sure.
Really appreciate Clare’s kindness and understanding – not to mention patience – guiding a nervous patient through the process.

Perfect service!
Amazing results – so natural but still gave me the confidence I needed. Will definitely be returning. Thanks Clare! <3
I am extremely pleased to have found Clare. I have had unpleasant experiences in the past and Clare has given me confidence that the care and support she gives is as important as the results she achieves with the treatment.
thoroughly recommend
Excellent service from all the team. I work long hours and Clare and her team have exceeded my expectations, always polite and friendly when re-arranging my appointments.
Ihave complete confidence in Clare as an experienced empathetic practitioner. Her results are natural, leaving me looking and feeling confident.
I first went to Clare for Sclerotherapy in 2004 to treat spider veins on my thigh. She has always been very professional but with a caring and empathetic attitude. This has enabled me to have complete confidence in the medical side of my treatment. As Clare’s business has grown and I now see her regularly for other treatments which gives me confidence that I look my best. She is now in lovely premises in Marlow and her team have managed to keep the personal touch and make you feel special. I wish them every success in the future.
I wanted my lips plumped but was always worried they would look unnatural an meeting clare she assured me thats not what she wanted to do + only would go with a natural look, I had them done + I love them. I wake in the morning hoping they look as they did the day before and they do. Big thank you. Jackie
I have always been a bit dubious about having any cosmetic procedure but as a permanent frowner I wanted to be frown free and Clare was recommended to me. She instantly put me at ease and was very informative. Also knowing all of her qualifications and experience gave me confidence as you hear so many horror stories out there. In a nutshell Clare has provided me with great natural looking results and I highly recommend her to others.
I don’t normally write reviews but Clare McLoughlin has been a life saver! I came to see her after having a disastrous treatment at another Marlow clinic where the person bruised me badly, and worse dropped my right brow which left me looking lopsided like I’d had a stroke – I was gutted!!!
Lovely, lovely Clare was so knowledgeable and was able to sort me out. (I hadn’t realised that Clare has been teaching wrinkle relaxing injections and skin fillers for many years).
Anyway, Clare did some advanced technique injecting and I was amazed that she was able to bring my brow back up. I would never go anywhere else now.

I have known Clare for many years and she not only makes me feel good, but she also makes me feel in very safe hands – Clare has a real talent to use the right treatment at the right time.
Her clinic is awesome and the opening time very generous and accommodating.
I also put my (adult) daughter in her hands for acne scarring treatment, and I have no hesitation that Clare does the right thing for her skin.
I sincerely recommend Clare.
I have been in Clare’s hands for many years and I not only look good but I always feel safe and taken care off. Clare has a real talent in selecting the right treatment at the right time, her clinic is excellent and the opening times could not be more generous. I had botox, fillers, intracell and specialist home treatment kits. I sincerely recommend Clare’ talent and treatments.
Very pleased with treatment & results. Clare’s Thorough Aftercare advice following treatment a godsend, very reassuring & professional. No hesitation to recommend.
As a beautician I have good knowledge of skincare. My consultation began with a skin analysis using a machine which showed skin damage not visible to the eye. I was pleased to see that my regular use of sunscreen had paid off!!! I had booked in to have the Fire and Ice medical facial to resurface and rehydrate my skin. The results were beautifully soft, smooth, radiant skin. Clare was professional and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable, I was made even more relaxed by the gentle background music. I did not feel pressured to buy any products and left with a goodie bag of samples to try at home. All in all a very pleasant experience and I will definitely be back!!!
Being new to this industry and the various procedures available, I can not rate Clare highly enough. She offered me facts and information based upon what I presented her with. I had always avoided approaching such services because of the horror stories and a reluctance to be greeted by over the top sales people. Clare is medically trained, professional and I came to trust her sufficiently to have a treatment. For which I was delighted with the results. As a mother of two, safety and results were my priority. Clare excelled in these areas and I would gladly recommend her as a practitioner. Brilliant. Thank you
Very knowledgable and professional
Very informative, very knowledgable. Thoroughly recommend Clare
Excellent professional service, very pleased with my new lips!!!
As always, very pleased.
I have been having treatment with Clare for over 10 years and can thoroughly recommend her. She is extremely experienced, and her results are fantastic, and above all she is kind and friendly, she has become a good friend.
Excellent treatment, very professional. Would recommend Appearance Based Medicine. As Registered Nurse myself I felt very reassured that Clare was very knowledgeable and experienced in the treatments I received, it was obvious to me that she had my interests at heart all the way through. Not only did Clare tell me which treatments would benefit me personally she explained why others were not appropriate. Good clear explanations given throughout. Thank you.
Removed all my nerves and provided an outstanding service. Highly recommended
Clare is patient and kind, and I value her advise and high standard of practice and experience.
