An award-winning skin clinic celebrated its move to new premises with a VIP party.

Christchurch Derma Spa – named Dorset winner at this year’s Town & County Business Champions awards – has taken up permanent residence at BizSpace in Christchurch.

Founded by Kirsty Campbell in 2017, the specialist private clinic treats clients with a range of skin concerns including acne, rosacea, pigmentation and ageing.

It uses non-surgical treatments including laser, microdermabrasion, skin tightening and chemical peels.

After four years of running the clinic from home, Kirsty made the big decision to move into premises.

She said: “Running the clinic from my dedicated treatment room at home worked well for years.

“But with the clinic getting busier and my children getting older, it felt like the right time to move into my own premises.

“It’s a big step, but I am super excited about this next chapter.”

Kirsty searched for local premises and decided to move into BizSpace in Christchurch.

She said: “I knew that wherever I moved to had to be close to home and have plenty of free parking, to make it as easy as possible for my clients.

“I looked at various options, but BizSpace seemed to offer the best solution.

“Since making the decision it’s been a rollercoaster few weeks to get everything ready in time.

“So many local businesses helped transform my new space including Carpet Barn and Signs of Distinction in Christchurch, and Colour Copier in Highcliffe, who printed all the goodie bags and signs for the evening.

“My dad, husband and friends have also been a huge support – from helping me move all my equipment over to making cakes and looking after guests on the opening night.”

Guests at the opening night included:

  • Rachael Penny, Coastal Garden Buildings
  • Russ Ritchie-Haydn, RH Sports Massage
  • Donovan Lynaghan, Christchurch RFC and Christchurch RFC Ladies
  • Louise O’Connell, Bridge Health and Wellbeing
  • Christina Stone, Goldfinch Marketing
  • Caroline Saunders, 4 C Marketing.

Jane Squires Photography captured images from the night.

Kirsty said: “I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to everyone who came to my opening party.

“Even in the wind and rain, they came along to celebrate with me.

“It really does mean so much.

“The new Christchurch Derma Spa is now officially open, and I can’t wait to get started!”
