Dr Rachel Aesthetics
You have tried the products, followed the trends, and maybe even invested in treatments that did not quite deliver - yet your skin still is not where you want it to be. A skin consultation at Aesthetics By Dr Rachel gives you clarity and a clear way forward using skincare that actually works and reaches where it really needs to go.
Your consultation begins in a calm, private setting where I take time to understand how your skin makes you feel and what truly matters to you. I explore your concerns, goals, and medical history in detail, then use advanced skin analysis to look beneath the surface and identify the root causes of your skin issues.
During your consultation, you will receive a pHformula SP Complex sensitivity facial, which is a patented skin sensitivity test designed to assess how reactive your skin truly is. This allows me to understand how your skin responds to different treatment strengths, so we can create protocols that work with your skin biology rather than against it.
I create a personalised skin health plan for you, combining clinically formulated pHformula skincare with carefully selected in-clinic treatments. For some patients, this may naturally evolve into a Radiance Collection programme or the Skin Coach Club, providing structured, long-term skin support.
This is not a one-and-done approach. I provide regular review appointments, adjust treatments as your skin evolves, and offer continuous professional guidance throughout your skin journey. You will always have clear guidance at every stage, helping you feel informed, reassured, and confident in your plan.
Doctor-Led Aesthetic Medicine
A relaxed, in-depth appointment where I explore your concerns, analyse your skin in detail, and create a personalised plan to support meaningful, long-term improvements in your skin.
Your consultation begins with time dedicated to understanding what is bothering you, how your skin makes you feel, and what truly matters to you. Many patients come to me at a point where their confidence is at its lowest - frustrated by persistent concerns such as acne breakouts, scarring, inflamed skin, pigmentation problems, textural irregularities, visible ageing, or skin that feels dull, dry, or fatigued. Skin has a powerful impact on how we see ourselves, and goes far beyond how it looks.
I carry out a thorough face-to-face assessment, exploring your medical and aesthetic history in detail, because your skin is completely unique, and your plan going forward should be too. Every recommendation is made with your long-term skin health at the centre, ensuring it is safe, clinically appropriate, and genuinely tailored to you.
Using advanced skin analysis, I look beyond what we can see with the naked eye to assess the deeper layers of your skin, including hydration, pigmentation, congestion, and barrier function. This allows us to identify the root causes of your concerns, choose the right treatments in the right order, and monitor your progress over time.
From here, I create a personalised plan designed specifically for your skin. For some patients, this develops into ongoing, structured support through the Skin Coach Club, while others choose a Radiance Collection programme - both providing clear direction, regular reviews, and a strategic long-term approach to skin health. I take time to explain the science behind each option, expected outcomes, and realistic timeframes, so you feel informed, confident, and fully in control throughout your journey.
"Dr Rachel is incredible! Her knowledge and expertise are unmatched. She not only knew exactly how to treat me but her friendly and warm approach put me at ease. Wouldn’t trust anybody else with my face! Thank you, Dr Rachel"

As a GP, I approach skin through a medical lens - diagnosing concerns accurately, recognising when symptoms require medical input, and calibrating treatments safely across all skin tones. I understand contraindications, inflammatory pathways, and how to work with skin biology rather than against it.
I commonly support patients struggling with acne and scarring, stubborn pigmentation, dull or fatigued skin, visible ageing changes, and sensitive or compromised skin barriers.
I partner with pHformula for both home skincare and in-clinic treatments because their approach is firmly science-led and evidence-based. Their patented technologies are designed to deliver active ingredients precisely to where they are needed within the skin, supporting controlled renewal and barrier health rather than aggressively stripping the skin back. This precision-led approach produces consistent, meaningful results - and is a system I trust clinically and use myself.
When it comes to your skin, diagnostic accuracy and formulation quality matter. You deserve informed medical guidance, not guesswork.
As a GMC-registered doctor I provide medical aesthetic treatments grounded in clinical expertise, careful assessment, and patient safety. My approach is focused on natural, evidence-based results, using only treatments and products I trust to be safe, effective, and subtle. Care is always one-to-one; you will see me from your first consultation through to every treatment review. Located in the heart of the Wirral, I welcome patients from across the Wirral peninsula including Bebington, West Kirby, Heswall, Bromborough and Birkenhead, offering personalised, doctor-led care focused on safe, natural results.
I am here to help you look and feel your best at every stage of life - because it is not just about looking great, it is about feeling great too.

Your questions about Skin Consultation answered by Dr Rachel.
Timeframes vary widely depending on your starting skin health, the concerns we are addressing, and how reactive your skin is. Some improvements, such as calmer skin or reduced breakouts, may be noticed within a few weeks, while changes like pigmentation or texture take longer to evolve. Skin transformation is rarely a straight line - it is normal to have good days and more challenging phases along the way. Most patients see meaningful, lasting improvement over 3-6 months with consistent skincare and regular review, I will guide you through each stage as your skin responds.
The SP Complex sensitivity test is a pHformula skin tolerance assessment carried out during your consultation to evaluate how your skin responds to active ingredients. It helps me assess your skin’s sensitivity on a scale of 1-10, allowing treatment strengths and protocols to be carefully selected according to your individual tolerance. This step helps ensure treatments are both safe and effective while reducing the risk of unnecessary irritation.
The comprehensive skin consultation is £75 and includes a dedicated 60-minute appointment with me. This allows time for detailed skin analysis, the pHformula SP Complex sensitivity assessment, and the creation of your personalised skin plan. You will leave with a clear understanding of your skin, realistic expectations, and a structured plan for improvement. Clear, transparent pricing is always discussed based on what is most appropriate for your skin.
Absolutely. Many patients benefit from combining skin resurfacing with other treatments for a more comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. During your consultation, I create an integrated plan that may include pHformula chemical resurfacing, microneedling, polynucleotides, or collagen-stimulating treatments such as JULÄINE™, sequenced carefully for safety and optimal results. For those seeking structured, longer-term support, this approach can also be delivered through a Radiance Collection programme.
The Skin Coach Club is a structured 8 or 12 month membership programme designed to support long-term skin health through expert guidance, education, and personalised care. It is ideal for anyone ready to step away from trial-and-error skincare and invest in a professional, science-led plan that evolves as their skin changes. Each programme includes a bespoke strategy tailored to your skin, combining clinically formulated pHformula skincare with carefully selected in-clinic treatments and regular review appointments. Using advanced skin analysis, I monitor your skin’s progress over time, adjusting your plan to ensure we are always moving in the right direction.
The Skin Coach Club supports a wide range of concerns, including acne, rosacea and inflammatory skin conditions, pigmentation disorders, textural irregularities, visible ageing changes, and skin that feels persistently dull, dry, or fatigued. Throughout your journey, you will receive ongoing professional support - whether that is a review, a question, or reassurance - so you are never left guessing. This is not a quick fix. The Skin Coach Club is about rebuilding skin confidence from the inside out, delivering meaningful, long-lasting results through consistency, expertise, and care. Patients typically see improvements in skin strength, tone, texture, and overall resilience - often reaching a point where makeup feels optional rather than essential.
I am always happy to help. Please get in touch.
