What Sarah Chapman London does

Sarah Chapman London is a London-based luxury cosmeceutical skincare and medical aesthetics brand operating under the Skinesis umbrella across two private limited companies (Sarah Chapman Limited and Sarah Chapman Skinesis Clinic Limited). Founded by facialist Sarah Chapman with the 2008 launch of the Skinesis product range and expanded in 2015 with a 4,000 sq. ft. flagship clinic in Chelsea, the company sells 49+ skincare SKUs directly to consumers via sarahchapman.com (free worldwide shipping over £40, multi-currency, 50+ countries served) at unit prices ranging from £26 to £295, alongside clinic treatments priced from £50 (LED Glow Pod) to £2,300 (Morpheus8 + PRP combination). Product formulation is anchored by the proprietary From Face to Formula approach — 3-4 years of R&D per launch, with up to 18 synergistic actives per formula, and feedback loops from over 15,000 in-clinic treatments annually feeding product development. The Clinic Range is powered by exclusive TTS3 (Transdermal Targeting System 3) delivery technology, with the Icon Smartsome line leveraging advanced Vitamin A delivery; new launches include the March 2024 Spicule Collagen Infusion Mask using spicule microneedling-inspired delivery.

The business operates a vertically integrated ecosystem spanning Skinesis Clinic (bespoke facials, advanced laser, injectables, EMFACE, Morpheus8, BBL, Moxi, Tixel, IPL), Skinesis Medical (CQC-accredited dermatology and injectables delivered by six doctors/consultant dermatologists and surgeons), Skinesis Longevity (launched June 2024 — functional medicine, hormone and gut microbiome diagnostics led by Dr Miriam Mikicki and Elena Rolt), the Glow Zone walk-in express treatment zone, and a Space NK Bath treatment residency. GTM combines DTC e-commerce, in-clinic high-touch sales (phone/email/Pabau booking portal, consultations £60-£300), AI-assisted personalisation via Renude, gamified promotions (Summer Match Matrix), a tiered Skinesis Society loyalty programme with referral incentives (£20/£20% off), and editorial PR in Vogue UK, Harper's Bazaar, The Times, Tatler and The Guardian. Sarah Chapman London is founder-owned, employs 51-100 staff, has no disclosed institutional investors, and is led by founder Sarah Chapman with CEO Simon Lee, Head of Digital Marina, and Head of Commercial Development Carolyne.
