Well what can I say but WOW! Firstly what a beautiful clinic it is! It’s like stepping inside a different world off the high street. Calming and beautifully done. Secondly all the staff are lovely and welcoming! And Kara is such a kind and down to earth person & made me feel at ease & confident in her practice from the moment we spoke. I’ve had 2 visits now and then my treatment visit recently & honestly cannot fault the care & service 5⭐️ Thank you! 🫶🏻 Would not hesitate to recommend the Sanctum & worth my 30min drive to get there! 🙌🏻

My aesthetic journey started in 2018 when I was curious about treatments, I wanted to enhance my features, address some ageing concerns, but I didn’t want anyone to know…. Back then aesthetics wasn’t as well known or accepted. My hope was to look like I’d had a great night’s sleep or a great holiday! Kara was on a global aesthetic companies approved list of clinicians and with that endorsement I paid her a visit. From the start she made me feel at ease. As a medical practitioner, she knew all about the anatomy of my face, she was principled, knowledgeable and I haven’t looked back in the 7 years I’ve been in her care for my face and body! I’ve had well considered anti-wrinkle, filler, facial and collagen enhancing treatments and now I’m confident and sometimes sassy to admit my secret! I’m encouraged by her constant investment in her training, development and further education of consumers and peers on her socials. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kara to anyone who wants an ethical, safe and incredible outcome from their aesthetic treatment journey!!

Having trained with Kara on numerous occasions, I can confidently say that she is an outstanding trainer. Her deep and comprehensive knowledge of anatomy is truly exceptional—second to none. Beyond her technical expertise, Kara stands out for her unwavering support of fellow practitioners. She consistently creates a positive, encouraging environment that motivates others to push their limits while feeling safe and empowered. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and her genuine passion for helping others grow is evident in every training session I’ve been to. Thank you Kara x
