Lauren Titcomb, director of The Hestia Clinic, said: “This move to Abbeygate Street is the realisation of a dream that started when we opened our first clinic in 2020.
“We’ve always believed in combining cutting-edge aesthetic medicine with a holistic approach to create a truly unparalleled experience for our clients. What matters most to us is the trust our clients place in us every day.
