A qualified GP for over 27 years and 19 years of practising in aesthetic medicine, Dr Kathryn is passionate about providing non-surgical cosmetic procedures such as Wrinkle Relaxing Treatments, Dermal Fillers, Lip Enhancements, Wrinkle Smoothing, Cheek Enhancements, Sweat Reduction, Hand Rejuvenation and Skin Tag Removal in a safe, comfortable environment – always putting you and your safety at the heart of everything she does.
As you may know from the media, the cosmetic procedures industry has gone unregulated for many years, meaning anyone has been able to source, supply and administer wrinkle relaxing treatments and dermal fillers. ‘Practitioners’ often have no medical background, very little training and worryingly, no real appreciation of the possible medical after/side effects which can occur, especially with poorly administered procedures.
Sadly, Dr Kathryn has seen, and corrected, far too many ‘botched’ procedures; which is why she dedicates her time, when not working, to making sure she is at the forefront of industry thinking and understanding, investing and training in the very latest products and techniques, ensuring she administers them safely for all her clients.
Dr Kathryn’s No.1 priority is to ensure she understands the medical history of each and every client she sees; reviewing any medications you may be taking to fully assess the implications BEFORE she will consider the best and most appropriate type of treatment for you.
Only a qualified Doctor can do that properly – so why trust anyone else?
The Real You Clinic is a modern medical grade clinic fully regulated and inspected by the Care Quality Commission [CQC]. Dr Kathryn offers a full range of non-surgical cosmetic procedures for men and women in this St Margarets Clinic:

I invested a lot of time researching to find someone I could trust with my face, when I found Dr Kathryn Taylor-Barnes. That was 12 years ago, the only regret I have is not finding her sooner! You won’t find anyone more professional and knowledgeable medical professional who genuinely cares for her patients. If she doesn’t think you need something she will tell, or she might make a suggestion that you hadn’t thought of too so I totally trust her advice. I can honestly say that I have had some amazing results, which I am happy for Dr Kathryn to share by before and after photos so you can see for yourself how natural they look too. I can’t recommend her enough.
I am always very pleased and satisfied with the results that I get from the recommended treatments that I have from Dr Kathryn. She is always friendly and helpful without being pushy and I value her support in my quest towards better skin and looking better for my age. Cannot recommend her and The Real You Clinic enough - certainly I have no issues with recommending her to any of my friends.
