Bentley Brook Clinic

Bentley Brook Clinic is an advanced skincare clinic based in the Lumsdale Valley, near Matlock. The clinic offers a personalised service of non-invasive skin treatments including blemish removal, laser treatments and permanent hair removal.

The grant enabled the business to invest in a new electrolysis machine, a significant upgrade from the previous model used. This new technology has had a very positive impact on the hair removal service provided by the clinic, helping to attract new clients, reduce treatment times and increase capacity. It offers a much less painful and more effective experience.

Lisa Fox (Owner) says:

The grant we received from Derbyshire Dales District Council to upgrade to the Apilus Electrolysis machine has truly transformed our clinic. It has allowed us to offer quicker, more comfortable, and far more effective treatments for our clients. This has enhanced the overall experience for those seeking permanent hair removal, whilst enabling us to attract new clients and improve the experience of our existing clients.
