HELLO

I'm Charlene Hogan

I would like to welcome you to Skin Solutions, a warm and friendly oasis that is
private, calm, and professional.

I am a Somatologist with 32 years of experience in a field that I absolutely and
passionately love.

I studied Beauty Technology at the University of Johannesburg, after which I
worked at some of the top salons in South Africa.
In 1999 I opened my own business within a medical practice, where I enjoyed great success for 7 years. I then moved to a beautiful cottage on our property for the next 14 years, where my business thrived. My family and I moved to Ireland in 2020, where I worked at one of Ireland’s top skin clinics
for 2 years. I then made the decision to once again open my own
practice and continue with the standard and ethos I successfully practiced in South Africa.

I find my industry an ever-changing, exciting world and thoroughly enjoy
training in new and innovative treatments. I believe in a Scientific answer to skincare. Environ was my professional product of choice for 29 years and I can
attest to the power of Vitamin A and Dr. Des Fernandes’ genius. In 2015 I was one
of 25 people chosen from around the world to be recognised as a World Star Therapist.

In my new venture, I have the great honour of being able to partner and work
with yet another innovative, award-winning South African brand, optiphi®. A
brand that originated in the plastic surgery and reconstruction field led to
the creation of a complete anti-aging solution. Using their expertise in
the bio-medical field, the best active solutions were found to rehabilitate the skin.
