She’s also a spokesperson for early prevention – but only ever to correct an imbalance or prevent early­-onset tissue damage and ageing due to predis­position. ‘There’s a gap when it comes to treating young people,’ she says. ‘But instead of focusing on isolated areas such as the lips or the cheeks, we should be diagnosing a sig­nificant tissue weakness. At the end of the day, it’s about being diagnostic.’
