Dr Joshua Berkowitz, Wimpole Aesthetics

Lynton's Focus Dual is the first treatment I have seen combining High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound with Radiofrequency Microneedling that does not involve downtime for the patient.  All of my patients lead busy lives and avoiding downtime is key for them.  And from what I have seen so far, the results are excellent.  I am genuinely very excited to be able to offer treatment with Focus Dual to my patients.”

Dr Ariel Haus , Dr Haus Dermatology

I just wanted to extend to Lyntons my heartfelt thanks for the Covid-19 payment holiday scheme on service cover and your webinars relating to risk assessment etc. A very kind gesture of support and I will highly recommend Lyntons to anyone in the future."

Helen Campbell, Clinic Director, Parkview Lasercare

Nothing but positives. I have recently completed my Level 5 laser tattoo removal at Lynton. Prior to that I have also completed two other courses with them. I can honestly say that I have never experienced such a vastness of knowledge so coherently and positively delivered. Prior to my courses at Lynton, I had been away from education for twenty years and I currently work in a completely different industry. At Lynton I have been made to feel welcomed into a world that is entirely foreign to me by some of the most accommodating people I have ever met. Course lead Kirsty, is a bottomless font of knowledge. She is quite literally the best teacher I have EVER had; infinitely patient, unflappable and generally just bloody lovely, you will be in very safe hands. Anyone looking for training in relevant fields should check out Lynton. 100% trustworthy, no sales patter, student focused wonderfulness guaranteed. 🙂

“I am very satisfied with the two working modes in EVOLVE, the ability to use standard or motion and to change automatic parameterization according to my patient needs allows me to provide excellent results from the first session”.

Dr. Sofija Malbaša, Láser Center

"Kirsty is an excellent trainer. Thoroughly enjoyed the last clinical update training course I went on."

Jodie Sedgwick

Expansion of Premises to Facilitate Entry into Export Markets

To facilitate its entry into new export markets, Lynton Lasers Ltd required increased manufacturing space, as well as new demonstration and training facilities. To this end, LEADER Funding was applied for, and won, to support the refurbishment of an adjacent business unit (Unit 9d) as well as the re-arrangement and refurbishment of the existing business unit (Unit 6) on Holmes Chapel Business Park.

This Project was part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development
