Leanne Nichols (née Hawkins) is a highly accomplished Registered Nurse and Independent Nurse Prescriber (INP), whose career began with a decade of service in the NHS. With an exceptional foundation in clinical care, she went on to qualify as a medical facial aesthetician and launched her first clinic — the multi-award-winning Face and Skin Clinic in the heart of Wickham.
Now in her fifteenth year in the aesthetics industry, Leanne is regarded as one of the most experienced and trusted practitioners in her field, having personally performed over 25,000 advanced treatments.

“Beautiful skin is deeply personal — it tells your story. My role is to help you feel confident in yours, every step of the way.”
— Leanne Nichols
Inspired by her own evolving relationship with skin and self-confidence, Leanne is passionate about delivering bespoke, results-driven treatments with elegance, precision, and care.

Leanne’s reputation extends far beyond Hampshire — she has the privilege of welcoming clients from across the UK and Europe, all seeking her expertise and the exceptional standard of care that defines her work.
Away from clinic life, Leanne is newly married and cherishes time spent immersed in nature. Her personal passions include tennis, wildlife, and the peaceful rhythm of countryside living. She and her husband share their home with their beloved Chihuahua, Gabriel, whom they lovingly adopted from the Blue Cross animal shelter.
