WHO WE ARE
​
A Different Kind of Skin & Aesthetic Clinic
Eco Skin Clinic is an independent skin, aesthetic and wellbeing clinic in Walthamstow, East London, bringing together advanced treatments, experienced independent practitioners and a more thoughtful, eco-conscious approach to skin, aesthetics and wellbeing.
​
Founded by Vicki Hexter, with over 30 years' experience in the beauty and aesthetics industry, the clinic has evolved from a traditional beauty salon into the multi-treatment clinic it is today, while retaining the personal service, honest advice and independent spirit it was built on.
​
Our approach combines modern treatments and technology with more conscious choices. We prioritise ethical, cruelty-free and vegan-friendly options wherever possible, while continually looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact. Where a treatment or product isn't suitable for vegan clients, we'll always be transparent and, where possible, help you explore an alternative.
​
And importantly, our eco and ethical choices never come at the expense of client safety, hygiene or treatment quality.
​​
OUR APPROCH​
Advanced Treatments.
A Considered Approach.
We combine modern technology and results-focused treatments with a more considered approach to skin, beauty and wellbeing.
​
​
Rather than looking at a concern in isolation, we consider your skin, lifestyle, goals and what you actually want to achieve. From advanced facials and microneedling to laser, injectables and body treatments, recommendations are made because we believe they are right for you, not simply because we offer them.
​
Our approach is about achieving effective, natural-looking results while avoiding unnecessary treatment and supporting the health of your skin wherever possible.
​
Advanced where it matters. Holistic where it helps. Always personal.

OUR COMMUNITY
Supporting Women in Business
Independent Practitioners. One Supportive Clinic.
Our environmental impact matters to us, but so does our social impact.
Supporting women in business has always been an important part of the Eco Skin Clinic ethos, while creating an inclusive clinic where practitioners of all backgrounds can thrive.
Independence
Our practitioners run their own businesses, choosing their hours and developing the treatments they are passionate about.
Support
We provide professional clinic space, access to advanced technology and shared resources, alongside marketing and business support that can be difficult to access when working independently.
Community
Independent businesses, working alongside one another and sharing the support of an experienced clinic team.
OUR ETHOS
​
Thoughtful Choices,
Wherever We Can Make Them
Sustainability may not be the first thing you think about when choosing a skin and aesthetic clinic — but we believe the choices behind your treatments matter too.
​
Being eco-conscious in a clinical environment isn't about pretending everything can be waste-free. Safety and hygiene always come first. Our approach is simply to make better choices wherever they are practical and responsible.

BEHIND THE SCENES
How We Put It Into Practice
Our environmental ethos influences the everyday decisions we make throughout the clinic from the products we choose to the furniture we keep.
Reduce, Reuse & Recycle
We look for alternatives to disposable products wherever it is safe to do so, use reusable options where appropriate and recycle as much of our everyday clinic waste through commercial recycling.
Clinical Safety Comes First
Some treatments require single-use items and clinical waste. We never compromise hygiene or safety for sustainability, but choose lower-impact alternatives where suitable.
Everyday Eco Choices
We reduce everyday waste with recycled paper products, eco-conscious cleaning products, biodegradable nitrile gloves and, where appropriate, reusable cotton pads and washable face cloths.
Energy Conscious
Our clinic is electric-only, with LED lighting and individual heating and cooling in treatment rooms so we can keep clients comfortable without unnecessarily heating or cooling unused areas.
Thoughtful Products
We choose professional and retail products that reflect our values, considering ingredients, animal-derived materials, cruelty-free policies, packaging and environmental impact.
Digital First
Less paper, less unnecessary waste.
Our prices, loyalty schemes, appointment confirmations and reminders are digital. Gift vouchers are also digital, with recycled-paper cards available when a physical option is wanted.
A Shared Ethos
Everyone who works within Eco Skin Clinic shares our more considered approach — being mindful of waste, the products and materials we use, and the environmental impact of our everyday decisions.

Reuse, Repair & Upcycle
We don't replace furniture or equipment simply because something newer is available. We repair, refurbish and upcycle wherever practical. Our reception desk and side table are made from reclaimed wood.
A MORE CONSIDERED CLINIC
Progress, Not Perfection.
We don’t claim to be a zero-waste clinic, that wouldn’t be realistic in an environment where hygiene, infection control and client safety must always come first.
Instead, we focus on making better choices wherever we can: reducing waste, reusing where appropriate, recycling responsibly, choosing more considered products and continually looking for better alternatives.
OUR AREA
​
A Little Piece of Walthamstow
​When we refreshed Eco Skin Clinic, our existing chairs no longer quite worked with the new décor. Rather than replace them, we looked for a way to upcycle them and discovered beautiful William Morris Strawberry Thief covers.
​
It felt particularly fitting. William Morris lived just down the road from the clinic, and I grew up visiting his former the William Morris Gallery. His distinctive botanical designs have always felt part of Walthamstow, so it was lovely to bring a little of that local heritage into the clinic.
​
What began with the chairs gradually inspired other William Morris touches throughout our rooms. Clients often recognise the patterns, and they have become part of the character of Eco Skin Clinic.
​
But the connection goes beyond their beauty. Morris believed in craftsmanship, nature and creating beautiful things with purpose. Those values sit naturally alongside our own approach: reuse where we can, make thoughtful choices and create a space that feels connected to both nature and our local community.
​
For us, the William Morris details aren't simply decoration they're a little celebration of Walthamstow, sustainability and beauty with purpose.
