I absolutely love Skin and Sanctuary. I first discovered this place in 2019 and ever since I haven’t been anywhere else.

From the receptionists, beauty therapists and the directors are so lovely and accommodating. My skin feels so fresh every time I leave and I feel so much happier with my skin as I pick the treatment of a hydrafacial where it’s deeply cleansed, extracted, Led light. I call it the hoover for the face, you can mop and wipe the surface but you will always need to lift the dirt from the skin.

A new starter called Freya did my facial today and she was brilliant! Really explained the products and gave me some great knowledgeable after care advice

I've had a fair bit of Botox over the years - and I'm not ashamed to admit it - but Rachel's expertise is like the Holy Grail of anti-ageing injectables. As an actor I need my face to be both ageless and expressive (thanks, Hollywood), so I'm thrilled with how my static frownlines have disappeared and my forehead is smooth and glowing, yet I can still raise an eyebrow, frown, and look surprised, something that often happens simultaneously when I see my pay cheque.
Rachel really listens to what you want and has the techniques and products to make it happen. I felt absolutely safe with her and confident that she knew exactly what she was doing, and what would suit my face.
I am delighted to recommend her and wouldn't go anywhere else

I first formed my relationship with S&S back in Sep 2021. I am a black female and it was very hard to find a skin clinic that specialised in my skin type and had the treatments I wanted.

I suffered with acne, hyperpigmentation and scarring. I want to give a special recognition to Dr Saira and Fatima these 2 helped completely transform my skin.

We agreed on a skin plan & I stuck to it. I had the perfect peel (chemical peel) and then 6 sessions of Microneedling whilst on the perfect at home skin plan. Tretinoin 0.025% and Obagi-C Fx Clarifying Serum.
A whole year later and my skin has transformed I am so gorgeous. I had 1 extra Microneedling session and I am now on Tretinoin 0.05% since Sep 2022. This is the best clinic I have ever visited and I get happy tears typing this truly game changers. This is a quality skin clinic and they are realistic. I 1000% recommend you visit it’s clean, friendly especially reception Eloise, Melodie and Sonia.
If you are skin of colour this is a clinic you can trust to deliver results!

Skin & Sanctuary helped get me glowing clear skin ahead of my wedding. I worked with them for around a year and they built me a tailored treatment plan, including unbiased advice on the products I should use at home. Everyone I engaged with at S&S has been so friendly and knowledgeable - special shout out to Dr Saira who is EXCEPTIONAL at all things skin, plus always great vibes! I'm now working with them on what my post-wedding ongoing skin regime looks like and I'm sure I'll be a loyal customer for many years to come.

Had a lovely experience at S & S. Amazing hydra facial by Freya, and treatment by
You-jen, and the wonderful Amy on reception. Totally rejuvenated, feeling refreshed facially and ready for the stresses of life and weather for the next couple of months! Highly recommend for anyone and everyone, especially 60+ like me. Don't grow old gracefully! I don't need my face to tell the story of my life, I can do that verbally. Spoil yourself, and enjoy the friendly wonderful service that S&S provides!

Since my Hydrafacial at Skin & Sanctuary I can genuinely see and feel a marked improvement in my skin. Upon arriving at this delightful clinic (which is a true sanctuary), I was welcomed by the lovely Sonia and felt extremely relaxed and taken care of. Firstly, I had a skin consultation with Dr Saira where my face was scanned and images taken to analyse my true skin health and age. Dr Saira reassured me about the unflattering images on the screen, reviewed them in detail and explained the results. Following a discussion about my current skincare routine, products I use and lifestyle, Dr Saira recommended the most effective treatment for my skin type, which was a Hydrafacial. The treatment was unlike any facial I had ever had, the therapist was amazing! She talked me through each stage as she carried out my treatment and made me feel relaxed even though the treatment involved microdermabrasion and red and blue LED lights. I would definitely return for follow up treatments as my face felt so cleansed and soft - I didn't want to wear make-up for days! The team are extremely welcoming and friendly and more importantly, I felt the difference in my skin, which was more nourished, brighter and my pores had practically disappeared. A wonderful experience with great results.

I made the decision to travel to London to visit Skin & Sanctuary following a glowing personal recommendation from an equally glowing lady I contacted via Instagram. I was after a place that took pride in subtly enhancing a persons natural features and not producing too much of the overly glam look. Sonia was incredibly helpful and accommodating from the moment I first contacted her, and after visiting them today I have nothing but wonderful things to say :) Dr Saira was obviously very knowledgeable and talked me through the procedure and all the possible complications, as well as taking her time to answer my questions about other treatments they provide - I never felt rushed and I think I was there for over an hour. I went ahead with my chosen treatment and so far have had essentially zero obvious side effects (swelling/bruising etc). I am delighted with the results so far, very natural whilst making a huge difference overall - exactly what I was after! I'm booked in for my review check up in a few weeks and I already look forward to seeing Sonia and Saira in their lovely Hackney office again. Hopefully one day I will be able to splurge on one of their amazing Hydrafacial's!

This is a highly professional, thoroughly ethical clinic who work with great integrity and care. I have been a client for several years and I am so delighted with the treatment and the results I have received. I would not hesitate to recommend this clinic whose kindness and understanding shines through in a profession which promises quick fixes at vastly inflated prices.

I had a beautiful Skin & Sanctuary Super Hydrafacial treatment with Fatima and just loved it! Fatima explained every step and did a very thorough treatment, my skin is still glowing and its been a week since my treatment with her! I love Hydrafacials and especially love the additional steps Fatima has added to make it very relaxing experience. I also love all the skincare goodies I was sent home with, really loving all the Skinceuticals! Thank you and I highly recommend! x

Ok, here it goes. I',m a guy and like many guys out there, the thought of caring for one's face is something more close to an afterthought, or the shower is good enough. I mean we all go to the dentist to get our teeth cleaned, the doctor to for our physical checkups, and the gym to maintain or peak our bodies. However, little attention is paid to the number one first impression making and most expressive part of us - our face. Men may think it vane to consider one's appearance, but we all know that we think about it. And as time goes by the decisions we made when we were younger and continue to make when we're older start to show dramatically in the face.
What Skin & Sanctuary bring is a host of experience, methods, tools to educate and treat the largest organ in and on our bodies - our skin. It's a relaxing and environment where you get treated to the most exquisite sensation of cleaning, washing, micro-scrubbing, invigoration and massage, by far my favourite part, I didn't know a face massage could be so amazing. You really can tell they are caring experts, like facial ninjas.
Both Saira and Fatema escorted me beyond the gates. You begin with a series of questions, then you get a skin analysis, which reveals all the underlying skin damage that is just beneath the surface, you learn about what regiment is right for you, then you are treated and finally you have the option to take some of their select products home with you. I recommend the Vitamin C and face drinks. I look forward to coming back next time I'm in London.
