Exploring Regenerative Skincare With Teresa Tan Of Tan&Co®

At her discreet Soho clinic, Advanced Nurse Practitioner Teresa Tan is quietly championing a more regenerative, skin-first approach to ageing. With over a decade of experience spanning dermatology, cardiology, and women’s health, Teresa’s philosophy is rooted in long-term skin vitality rather than short-term smoothing.

“As we age, the skin’s needs become more layered. It’s not just about freezing movement or filling lines - it’s about supporting the skin to function well from within,” she explains.

Tan&Co® offers a carefully curated menu of evidence-based, non-surgical treatments, many of which aim to stimulate the skin’s own healing and repair processes. These aren’t dramatic interventions, but quiet, cumulative upgrades to texture, tone and resilience - ideal for those looking for subtle but significant results.

Geneo X Facial
Dubbed the “super facial” and a celebrity favourite of Dua Lipa, Maya Jama, Paris Hilton, Jennifer Lopez, Zoe Kravitz, Gwenyth Paltrow, and Sabrina Carpenter, the GENEO facial is now available to Londoners seeking next-level skin rejuvenation.

It’s a worthy rival to the Hydrafacial, delivering immediate and long-term improvements in skin texture, radiance, and tone. The advanced 4-in-1 treatment includes ESA (Electrical Skin Activation) technology and TriPollar Radiofrequency, which help reshape, lift, tighten, and tone the skin from within by stimulating cellular production and encouraging collagen synthesis.  Inspired by natural hot springs, OxygeneO technology triggers deep oxygenation, maximizing absorption of active ingredients for a glowing, red-carpet-ready complexion.Active ingredients include peptides, silk amino acids, green tea, gold extract, red algae and retinol. The result is smoother, revitalised skin with enhanced elasticity and a youthful glow. The treatment is clinical in delivery, but indulgent in feel, and offers both an immediate post-facial glow and longer-term benefits.

Polynucleotides
Among the most promising developments in regenerative skincare are polynucleotides - ultra-purified DNA fragments originally derived from salmon, now gaining serious traction as a science-led alternative to filler. Unlike volumising injectables, polynucleotides work by encouraging the skin to repair itself: stimulating fibroblasts, boosting hydration, improving elasticity, and reducing inflammation. Particularly effective in delicate areas like the under-eyes, they offer a more natural route to rejuvenation. Teresa often recommends a course of treatments for cumulative results, noting their success not just in softening fine lines but in addressing scarring, sensitivity, and general skin fatigue.

Microneedling with Exosomes
A gentle but highly effective procedure, microneedling is used to trigger the body’s natural wound-healing response, boosting collagen and elastin. Teresa enhances the treatment by pairing it with exosomes rich in growth factors and plant stem cells. The result is improved texture, reduced scarring, and a more even tone - especially around traditionally tricky areas like the under-eyes or jawline.

At a time when aesthetic medicine can feel increasingly commercialised, there’s something refreshing about Tan&Co’s approach. There are no hard sells, no glossy menus of tweakments - just calm, personalised expertise with wellbeing at the heart of it.

Whether you’re newly curious about regenerative aesthetics or looking to rebalance a skin routine that’s lost its way, Teresa offers a grounded, intelligent alternative. While Botox still has a role, her emphasis lies in supporting the skin to function at its best - whether through hydration, collagen stimulation, or restoring balance during key life stages. It’s a longer-term approach, and one that’s quietly gaining momentum.
