Are you struggling to lose weight and keep it off? 🤔

We’ve got you. At Illuminate, we understand that weight loss isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. That’s why we offer personalised solutions designed around your unique needs and goals.

Many people struggle with weight loss because they fall into unsustainable habits like yo-yo dieting or overly restrictive plans that are impossible to maintain long-term. These quick-fix approaches often lead to initial success, but as soon as normal routines resume, the weight creeps back on - sometimes even more than before.

Sustainable weight loss requires a balanced, personalised approach that considers not just diet and exercise but also long-term lifestyle changes and, when appropriate, professional support to address underlying challenges.

The approach we recommend combines expert guidance with cutting-edge treatments, including tailored diet and exercise plans, weight loss injections to support fat metabolism, and the Allurion Gastric Balloon for those seeking a non-surgical option.

This approach is not only a sustainable way to lose weight, it’s an opportunity to have an expert team on your side and to receive the tools and support needed to lose weight healthily.

STOP SCROLLING ✋🏼 if you’re a woman over 40 - you need to hear this…

Your skin’s needs are changing, and your skincare routine should too.

As we age, our skin naturally undergoes changes – reduced collagen production, slower cell turnover, and an increased need for hydration.

This doesn’t mean you can’t have radiant, healthy-looking skin; it just means adapting to these changes with the right support.

Stop wasting money on skincare for skin laxity and do this instead 👇🏼

While skincare is essential for maintaining healthy, radiant skin, it often isn’t enough to combat skin laxity – that sagging, loose skin that comes with age. Unfortunately, topical creams and serums won’t deliver the deep, structural support your skin needs. To address skin laxity effectively, you need a science-backed approach that works beneath the surface.

Treatments like HarmonyCA, Profhilo, and Sofwave offer targeted, clinically proven results. HarmonyCA helps restore volume and skin quality, Profhilo delivers intense hydration and stimulates collagen, while Sofwave uses advanced ultrasound technology to tighten and lift the skin.

Together, these treatments provide a comprehensive solution that truly combats skin laxity. Swipe to learn more about how these treatments can rejuvenate your skin and give you long-lasting results ➡️

Struggling to lose weight in menopause? 💙

Menopause brings many changes, and one of the most frustrating can be weight gain or difficulty losing weight. As oestrogen levels drop, your metabolism can slow down, leading to stubborn fat, especially around the abdomen. The hormonal changes can also cause shifts in your appetite and cravings, making it harder to maintain your usual weight.

We understand the impact menopause has on your body, and we’re here to help. With tailored treatments and a holistic approach, we offer solutions to support your weight loss journey, targeting hormonal balance and boosting your metabolism for more effective results.

Meet the injectables that help you age backwards while still looking like you 🤩

The key to ageing gracefully is treatments that enhance your natural features while rejuvenating your skin from within. We often recommend advanced injectable options such as polynucleotides, Profhilo, and HarmonyCA – each designed to support skin health, boost hydration, and restore elasticity.

Polynucleotides work by improving skin repair and regeneration, giving your complexion a fresher, healthier appearance. Profhilo delivers an intense hydration boost, stimulating collagen and elastin production for firmer, plumper skin. HarmonyCA combines a dermal filler with calcium hydroxyapatite, offering volume restoration alongside improved skin quality.
