Olympic diver officially opens new Devon sk:n clinic

The doors of Devon’s first sk:n clinic have now officially opened, at Hyde Park in Plymouth, with the award-winning national skin clinic brand hosting a VIP launch event to celebrate the occasion. British Olympic diver and decorated sports star, Tonia Couch, cut the ribbon to officially open the new clinic, with guests being treated to exclusive demonstrations of the latest in skin care treatments. 

Invited guests enjoyed the exclusive event, which included free skin scans and mini treatments. They also heard from the expert sk:n team, who talked to guests about the wide range of treatments and clinically proven skin and sun-care products now available at the clinic.

As the 47th clinic in the brand’s national portfolio and boasting state-of-the-equipment, including two new laser hair removal devices, the Plymouth clinic offers the latest in dermatology, rejuvenation, tattoo and hair removal to clients across the region. Just some of a wide range of treatments available include the revolutionary HydraFacial, as well as laser hair removal, skin peels, microdermabrasion, tattoo removal and dermal fillers. 

With over 2 million clients nationwide, and as winner of ‘Best Clinic Group’ at the 2016 Aesthetic Awards, sk:n is the country’s leading skin clinic, offering more highly medically trained staff than any other chain of clinics. Founded in 1990 and with a network of clinics across the UK, sk:n has quickly grown to become one of the most trusted skincare providers in the UK, providing customers with the most effective treatments available.

Olympic diver Tonia Couch, who officially cut the ribbon to open the new clinic, said: “It was fantastic to officially open the new sk:n clinic, as well as meeting the team and hearing about some of the amazing treatments and products available. In my line of work, I am always in the pool or training outside, meaning my skin goes through a lot!
“I understand the importance of looking after my skin and protecting it from the elements, and it’s great to now have somewhere local that can provide advice and treatments to ensure my skin is always in the best condition.”

Karen Portwood, Nurse, sk:n, said “It was great to see so many people at the event, with most using it as an opportunity to find out more about some of the new treatments available, as well as trying out some for themselves, such as the skin scanner and HydraFacial treatment.

“sk:n is dedicated to inspiring confidence through better skin and I look forward to welcoming new clients through our doors to experience this for themselves.”

Mark Mantell, sk:n Clinic Director said: “The opening of the new Plymouth sk:n clinic is a major milestone for the brand, providing us with the chance to share our skin expertise to clients across the South West.

“It’s always exciting to see clients walk into one of our new clinics for the first time as it gives us a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate the high level of clinical and professional care we are able to provide. All our treatments are clinically proven and delivered by registered, expert staff, meaning our clients can trust in the results.”
