A holistic approach to aesthetic treatments
In a world where the pace of life often leaves us feeling disconnected and overwhelmed, the pursuit of holistic wellness offers a sanctuary of balance and vitality.

In a world where the pace of life often leaves us feeling disconnected and overwhelmed, the pursuit of holistic wellness offers a sanctuary of balance and vitality.


Holistic wellness, an integrative approach that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit, encourages us to look beyond the surface and cultivate a deep sense of well-being from the inside out.

Skin and Soul Medical, based in Sunderland, offers just the tonic to such concerns through a range of treatments including hydrofacials, dermaplaning, IPL hair removal and skin boosters. Their latest offering combines hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers and a wellbeing focused mapping of the face.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that keeps our skin soft and moisturised. Groundbreaking fillers company, Juvéderm, utilises a modified version of hyaluronic acid to keep skin looking softer for longer. The key with Juvéderm is that it provides a natural looking alternative to Botox and ensures the skin retains movement.

The range of Juvéderm products covers all manner of skin concerns from volume loss, to wrinkles and folds or to create a more symmetrical face shape. Available to adults over 21, Juvéderm can last from six to 18 months and is a quick and painless option for long-lasting fillers.

Consistently first choice amongst aestheticians, Juvéderm is now available at Sunderland’s Skin and Soul Medical.

Lucie Royer, founder of Skin and Soul is eager to provide clients with the very latest in dermatological products.

Lucie said: “Juvéderm has been requested by my clients for some time and I am so pleased to be able to offer this product in the clinic. The results have been fantastic, and my clients leave with so much more confidence. I work closely with clients to target specific concerns from the forehead to the neck.”

Lucie is also championing the holistic side of aesthetic correction through MD Codes. By focusing on the emotional messages of the face, such as looking less sad, clients feel more satisfaction with their treatments. The MD Codes system is used alongside hyaluronic acid filler treatment to ensure clients are correcting their facial features for the right reasons.

MD Codes, or Medical Codes, provide a map of the face which highlights pre-defined areas where dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm, can be injected to create a natural result.

Whilst the ‘map’ covers the entire face, the system pin-points smaller areas on the cheeks, eyes, temples, chin, jawline, forehead, brow and lips and therefore allows Lucie and her team to inject Juvéderm into highly specific areas of the face to produce the most natural look for clients.

The focus on holistic wellness is important to Lucie: “We are called Skin and Soul Medical for a reason. I want clients to feel their very best from the inside out and focusing on amending the emotional messages of the face, rather than pointing out specific things the client doesn’t like, offers a more positive experience.”

Created by Mauricio De Maio, MD Codes increases patient confidence, safety and clinician success rates as the areas that can be injected are so specific and are mapped onto the skin. The codes allow for bespoke, tailor-made treatment whilst ensuring a formulate structure to injecting meaning facial anatomy and proportions are taken into account by the clinician.

“Rather than adding unnecessary weight and volume to the face, the Codes target the source of the problem and therefore my clients leave with a natural looking fresh face.”
