Karen Betts has helped to bring happiness and new-found confidence to thousands of people. It’s no wonder, therefore, that she receives so many messages of appreciation. Here are just a few examples:

“I have suffered from alopecia for over 15 years and no matter what I have done in the past I have always looked like someone with alopecia. I’ve never been able to look or feel normal. Since being introduced to Karen, I now have natural looking eyebrows and eyeliner that make me look and feel normal and confident again. It also turns out that Karen has qualifications in wigs and hairpieces and she advised me on more complementary styles to suit my face and shape. Things just keep getting better. I don’t think there’s anything Karen can’t do.”

 “Karen’s eye for colour is remarkable. She was able to assess my skin tones and mix a colour that overcame the blueness which other technicians in the past have failed to do.

I have had permanent cosmetics previously and the results were a purple lip liner. I have a friend who has orange eyebrows – apparently this is an elementary error made by technicians with little or no knowledge of the effects of skin undertones in permanent cosmetics. I’ve recommended my friend comes to see Karen with a hope that she can put it right. I would recommend Karen to anyone.”

“I had started to feel older than I actually was and my lips looked smaller and were fading to the same colour as my face.

I initially wanted a lip line procedure but opted for a lip blush and I’ve never been happier.

My friends say it has taken 10 years off me.”

 “I have always had a slight hare-lip until I met Karen at the G-Mex Beauty Show. Karen sat me on the bed and drew my lips with a lip liner pencil and said that she could give me the same effect permanently.

I booked immediately and have been completely amazed by my new appearance.”

HARLEY STREET COSMETIC SURGEON

“I was introduced to Karen some time ago and I have been referring my patients to her for paramedical camouflage work such as the small scars inevitable after plastic surgery. I was delighted when Karen showed me her portfolio of breast procedures and the way she could recreate or add symmetry to areola and nipples with the careful use of camouflage and flesh coloured pigments. I introduced Karen to a colleague in London and she has been asked to appear in a documentary for BBC TV about life behind the scenes in Harley Street.”
