Antoinette Wallace (Toni)
Toni qualified as a nurse a long time ago (1991!) in Kent. She has since worked in most acute areas of nursing (A+E, theatre and critical care) and holds a BSc(hons) in Pain Management. She is a specialist nurse practitioner in critical care and worked until recently at a local NHS hospital as an anaesthesia associate. Toni completed her aesthetics training in 2019 with the prestigious Derma Medical and has undertaken further advanced training subsequently. She has practiced aesthetics alongside her NHS role since then.
Toni is a nurse prescriber and is passionate about patient care and making the very best of yourself in the most natural way. She believes it’s about enhancing what you’ve got rather than changing it.
We are members of The British Association of Cosmetic Nurses (soon to be changing its name to The British Association of Medical Aesthetic Nurses). This is the largest professional association for nurses carrying out medical aesthetics treatments in the UK. The BACN members operate under a strict code of conduct in order to ensure safety across all treatments undertaken by its members.
We also have ACE (Aesthetics Complications Expert) membership. ACE Group World helps improve patient safety in medical aesthetics by producing evidence-based, peer reviewed guidelines for the management of a wide variety of complications.

Stephanie Weekes (Steph)
Stephanie Weekes (Steph) qualified as a Registered General Nurse in 2014. Steph started her career as an elderly-care nurse in Bristol before moving into emergency medicine for a further 4 years. She then went into community “Rapid Response” care in South Bristol before returning to her roots in Dorset and securing a job at The Winterbourne Hospital alongside her sister.
