Valerie Simpson

Valerie Simpson - Founder of FAB Group

My background as an aesthetician has been a long journey of some thirty years, which includes the launch of The Face and Body Shop in 1997. We have since rebranded to the FAB Salon and our business has grown from a team of three to a team of twenty plus.

As the market trends changed I felt the need to progress and expand the business model, hence the launch of the FAB Clinic in 2014.

After 22 years of leading The Fab Group, I am now taking a well deserved step back! Leaving Lisa and Lucy to head the business and take it to another level.

I am always here if you have any questions and I hope you enjoy the ongoing journey.

After starting my career in advertising, media & marketing, for companies such as J Walter Thompson, Action Time Television & Red Production I diversified into the beauty industry, gaining NVQ2 Beauty at Oldham College & NVQ3 Electrical Face & Body at Tameside College.

With 10 years experience of training in beauty treatments and product knowledge at The Face & Body Shop I progressed to be a Salon Manager. Wanting to move further within the industry I decided to retrain in aesthetic treatments.

I have immense product knowledge of cutting edge cosmecuticals such as Obagi and Medik8. All of which complement the cutting edge treatments that we offer at the clinic.

I strive to give the patient the best service and advice possible to achieve the results they desire with the optimal outcome.

With progression over the past 15+ years I became Managing Director of the company where I am responsible for organising all forms of recruitment and training, all HR matters and appraisals, promotions, marketing and social media matters, along with financial control.

I spend quality time outside of the business with my children and husband, and love to go walking around our surrounding countryside.

Joanna Lancashire - Clinic Manager + Aesthetic Therapist

Joanna Lancashire - Clinic Manager + Aesthetic Therapist

I started in the beauty industry at a very early age, joining the Face & Body Shop on work experience in 2000 which led me to training by Qualifying in NVQ Levels 2 and 3. Training has always been important to me "you can never know enough", so with this in mind I have continued to build my knowledge and skills.

I trained in laser hair removal, skin rejuvenation and other aesthetic treatments and helped build the client portfolio at FAB clinic. I have vast knowledge of Obagi medi-cal skin care including peels. Working with Elos plus laser is amazing as it allows us to offer the treatments to every skin type/colour, and lots of my patients recommend myself and the clinic to their families and colleagues.

I love to be part of my patients journey to obtain the best results possible. Many have been delighted with the results achieved from their treatments and home care advice they have received from me. This gives me the greatest job satisfaction and the desire to learn further skills within the industry.

Away from the clinic I love spending time at home with my partner and taking our dog for walks.


Lorraine Berry

Lorraine Berry - Clinic Co ordinator & Obagi Ambassador

I began working in the beauty industry over twenty years ago. After qualifying in NVQ 2 and 3 I decided to take the retail and customer service career path. I have worked for several cosmetic brands including Dior, Chanel and Clarins.

After working as an Account Manager for Clarins my passion for skincare and improving how we look led me to working in an aesthetic clinic in Harvey Nichols as the clinic coordinator. I also trained in HIFU, Cryotherapy and Laser Lipo. I loved carrying out the initial client consultations and then following the clients’ journey. As the world of aesthetics grows I have been delighted to be a part of the growth of the FAB Clinic and such a friendly reception team, working alongside an experienced team of doctors and therapists.

I have really enjoyed expanding my knowledge of laser, Obagi medical skincare (becoming an Obagi Ambassador for the brand in 2021) and aesthetic treatments including our revolutionary 3D EM Lift, HIFU and Dermaforce.

I always give 100% customer service and love coordinating the doctors and clinics. Outside of work I really enjoy walking in the surroundings of Saddleworth, going to the gym, spending time with family and friends and love travelling abroad in search of sunshine.

Lauren Radcliffe – Permanent Make-up Artist

Lauren Radcliffe – Permanent Make-up Artist

I’m a Semi Permanent Makeup Artist who holds clinic days here at the FAB Clinic. I trained in 2019 at KB Pro with the very talented Karen Betts, who is known for her award winning pigments and brow tools. All the products used in my treatments are KB Pro to ensure the best results possible for each client.

The treatments I currently offer are: Microblading / Nanoblading Ombre Brows Combination brows.

Each technique is slightly different and therefor I discuss at consultation with my clients which treatment is best suited for them.

I offer a free consultation to all my clients before treatment so I can assess the individuals skin type, see their natural brows and get an understanding of what they are wanting from their Semi Permanent Makeup. We will discuss which option is best for them and also answer any questions or concerns they may have.

A patch test is done during the consultation to ensure the pigments used won’t have a reaction with your skin (These must be done minimum 24 hrs before treatment).
