The Happy Skin Clinic Information
The Happy Skin Clinic is built around a simple principle: understanding first.
I’m Jacqui de Jager, a Skin Consultant & Educator. My work is centred on helping people make sense of their skin, how it tends to behave, what may have changed, what might be relevant in everyday life and what, if anything, is worth doing about it.
Rather than beginning with a treatment or a product, I begin with the person and their skin. I’m particularly interested in taking complex skin science and making it useful and understandable, so that clients can ask better questions and make more confident, proportionate decisions about their skin and skincare.
My professional background spans education, customer experience, operations and regulated healthcare before moving into aesthetics and skin. My subsequent training has included skin and microneedling, electrolysis and advanced blemish removal, facial electrotherapy, anatomy, physiology and pathology, Pastiche Advanced Skin Analysis and UCL Behaviour Change Interventions.
That combination has shaped the way I work today. I don’t believe that every skin concern needs more products or more intervention. Sometimes support is appropriate; sometimes simplifying a routine is useful; sometimes skin needs time; and sometimes something is better assessed by another healthcare professional.
Where skincare is appropriate, I work with dermaviduals and can help clients understand what they are using, why they are using it and what job they actually want a product to do.
My aim is not to make you dependent on somebody else to tell you what your skin needs. It is to help you understand it better yourself.
Not perfect skin. Better understood skin.
