Richard Peppiatt: Founder And Clinical Director Of RP Aesthetics

If you are considering getting an aesthetic treatment, chances are you have pored over articles, blogs, websites and videos explaining every detail of the procedure and all of its possible outcomes. Few people, however, dedicate the same amount of time and attention as to who will perform their treatment.

With cosmetic procedures on the rise and affordable prices making treatments accessible for the masses, new practitioners materialise overnight and shiny clinics take up every available nook and cranny left on the high street. But does it really matter who performs your treatment?

Yes! Unbelievably, aside from the age at which you can undergo treatment, there isn’t any regulation around injectables in the UK. This, worryingly, means that there is no legal requirement to gain qualifications in aesthetic procedures before performing them. Your choice of practitioner is, thus, absolutely crucial in terms of safety and results.

With over ten years’ experience and an impressive training history, Richard Peppiatt is one of the most sought-after aesthetic practitioners in the North East. Based in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, he has performed thousands of procedures at his clinic, RP Aesthetics, and these have resulted in many happy, returning clients.

Let’s explore what else sets Richard apart from the rest.

Early Career

Before delving into the world of cosmetics, Richard gained twenty years of postgraduate experience in General Medicine. In February 2008, he qualified in facial aesthetics, including the administration of Anti-Ageing Injections, Dermal Fillers and Chemical Peels.

After this, Richard worked in the globally recognised hub for private healthcare, Harley Street, London. Here, he improved his understanding of facial anatomy and enhanced his overall aesthetic capabilities while working alongside some of the top mentors in the industry.

Having gained invaluable insight into advanced cosmetic practices, Richard made his way north and founded his own company, RP Aesthetics. By focusing on professionalism, patient safety and holistic care, Richard quickly began to build up his client base.

Continued Professional Development

Richard regularly engages in continued professional development courses to ensure that RP Aesthetics meets the highest standards in quality, safety and consistency.

Improvements in the administration of Anti-Wrinkle and Dermal Filler Injections have, no doubt, played their part in the rise in popularity of the cosmetics industry. Procedures no longer result in an unnatural or frozen look, and instead provide subtle anti-ageing effects. Advancements in products and how they are delivered, continue to emerge from an abundance of research, ignited by the recent surge in aesthetic treatments.

Richard acknowledges the need to stay up-to-date with new treatments and how quickly ‘best practice’ can change. By engaging in training courses, he continually upgrades his skills, setting himself apart from his competitors.

Training With Dr David Eccleston

Richard has undergone training with many esteemed aesthetic practitioners over the years, including an expert in the field of injectables, Dr David Eccleston.

Dr Eccleston is one of very few medical professionals to hold the title of Lead Investigator in clinical trials on the use of all three UK-licensed brands of Anti-Wrinkle Injections. Alongside running his own clinic, he is also a member of the Allergan team – the world’s largest cosmetic injectables supplier. His role involves managing complications and helping those who have received poor treatment.

Leading experts in the industry pass on a career’s worth of knowledge to those they train. This priceless guidance and expertise allows Richard Peppiatt to perform treatments with a high level of skill, efficiency and confidence.

Professional Aims

RP Aesthetics is founded on three pillars of excellence: professionalism, patient safety and holistic care.
Richard Peppiatt analyses a client’s skin and suggests only necessary and beneficial treatments. His time, care and attention result in the natural enhancement of features. He will not proceed with a treatment if he feels the results will look too artificial, nor would he upsell a treatment package for personal gain.

Patient safety has always been central to RP Aesthetics’ practices, but never more so than in the current climate. Extra safety measures have been put into place to ensure the clinic adheres to COVID regulations, meaning clients can relax into their treatments.

Richard’s holistic approach to aesthetics centres around a strong patient/practitioner relationship. By conducting a thorough assessment of the client’s concerns, he can create a detailed treatment plan for procedures carried out within the clinic and aftercare or lifestyle adjustments which need attending to at home.
