What is Epigenetics?

DNA Activity

How does epigenetics work?

Epigenetics is a study of how your lifestyle and environment can be a factor on how your genes work. Unlike genetics, which is the DNA you inherit from your parents, epigenetics looks at how your lifestyle and environment can affect the way your genes work.

Your daily habits can affect your genes. Things like your diet, sleep, stress, exercise, smoking and exposure to pollution may all play a role in how your genes behave.

For people who want a more personalised approach to skin health, epigenetics can provide useful information about factors that may affect ageing, healing, and treatment.

Some benefits include:

  • Better understanding of factors that affect your skin and overall health.
  • Helping your clinician create a tailored treatment plan.
  • Supporting long-term skin health and preventive care.

Wonderful experience. My skin was breaking out from travel and whilst visiting London they helped me so much with cortisone injections for acne. Feel so much relief being in a foreign place getting such kind and confident treatment. Thank you!

The procedure
Consultation And Sample Collection
What happens during an epigenetics test?

Your appointment starts with a consultation with your doctor. After asking about your health, lifestyle, diet and any concerns you may have. A sample is then collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis.

Type Of Collection Method
How is the sample collected?

Epigenetic tests use a simple cheek swab, saliva sample or blood test. The test is very simple and straightforward. Your provider will explain what method you will use in your consultation.

A Comfortable Testing Experience
Is it painful?

Most epigenetics tests are painless, especially when cheek swabs or saliva samples are the methods used. If a blood sample is needed, you may feel a quick pinch, similar to having a routine blood test.

Quick Appointments Available
How long does the test take?

The collection usually takes only 5 to 15 minutes. Together with the consultation, your appointment may last 30 to 60 minutes.

Understanding Your Results
When will I get my results?

Results are ready within 2 to 6 weeks depending on the test done. Your clinician will explain your results or any treatment recommendations during your follow-up appointment.
