What’s your favourite aesthetic treatment to perform and why?
My favourite aesthetic treatment to perform has got to be recreating volume and restoring symmetry in clients faces using dermal fillers. It has long been a passion of mine and I gain so much satisfaction restoring confidence in clients.
What is your signature approach when it comes to treating your patients?
I advocate a soft and natural look with natural expression working with clients' expectations to retain my signature approach to rejuvenation.
Why do you use HydroPeptide products?
We have been offering HydroPeptides within our clinic for a short time but already we are seeing the difference in clients and our own skin. The brand is researched, tested and uses patented technology which is one of the main reasons we chose to focus on this range.
Who does the range best suit and why?
The HydroPeptide range is for everyone. There are no clients you cannot treat and the fact you can integrate skin products and treatments for clients who are breastfeeding, pregnant or receiving cancer therapy is just remarkable.
Which are your must-have products and why?
My must have product is the box set Polish & Plump Peel. The set, alongside the firming Vitamin C Mask is a fantastic combination. If your clients are looking for a home treatment this targets fine lines, wrinkles, dull tired skin and helps brighten an uneven skin tone.
Do you use HydroPeptide personally? Which products?
I personally use the Gentle Cleansing Gel morning and night along with the Clarifying Toner Pads. I use Daily Power Serum, Eye Authority and Solar Defence Non-Tinted SFP 50 daily. In the evening add on Lumapro-C to help keep my pigmentation under control. Twice a week I add in my Polish & Plump Peel with the Vitamin C Mask.
How does HydroPeptide complement the aesthetics treatments you offer?
We have introduced three skin treatments from the HydroPeptide range, and each treatment gains remarkable feedback. The integration of certain masks to adapt to client's skin is very easy, and clients love having additional options.
What do you enjoy most about working in aesthetics?
I love working in aesthetic medicine because it beautifully blends art and science. It's not just about enhancing physical appearance—it's about restoring confidence, empowering people to feel their best, and honouring the individuality of each face and body. Every treatment is a collaboration, and I get to use both my clinical knowledge and my eye for detail to create subtle, natural-looking results that genuinely change lives. The field is always evolving, which keeps me inspired and constantly learning. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing someone light up when they look in the mirror
What do you think are the industry trends to watch?
I would be looking out for the trends to all convert to concentration on skin. Not just injectable products but treating diseased skin and recreating glass skin.
What are the future plans for you and your practice?
We are pushing forward using HydroPeptides and we will be encouraging development in skin treatments using the full range and introducing more peels.
How does working with Wigmore complement your business, and why?
I have worked with Wigmore for 20 years and always find they offer innovative products and educational training.The delivery is punctual and the staff always very welcoming.
After completing her Diploma in Adult Nursing at Robert Gordon’s University in 2003, Mrs Jan Leiper-Whiteford ventured into aesthetics leaving the NHS. With a leap of faith in 2005 she quickly became Aberdeen’s go to aesthetic provider delivering bespoke innovated treatments for facial and body rejuvenation. Pushing the boundaries, her team grew over 15 years enabling her to sell her award winning business in 2020 and take a small family break before returning to work for the buyers.
In 2023, The Skin Bothy Ltd was created with her eldest daughter who is near completion of her Masters of Pharmacy. In February 2025, The Skin Bothy opened a state of the art, bespoke four- floor clinic in the heart of the West End of Aberdeen, supported by a full medical team addressing all aspects of facial and body rejuvenation with medical equipment and bespoke skin care. From rejuvenation to medical health screening The Skin Bothy Ltd has the answer to everyone’s’ needs.
