Video: Northern Ireland entrepreneur who battled with acne as a teenager now on a mission to help others thanks to injection of growth

A Newtownabbey-based entrepreneur has launched a new skincare and aesthetics business after receiving assistance through Go Succeed.

Chris Flanagan, with a background in biomedical science, established The Aesthetics Guy NI, an aesthetic clinic focused on facial and skin rejuvenating treatments such as advanced microneedling, chemical skin peels, natural lip augmentation, dermal fillers, and skin boosters for both the face and under-eye area, following his struggles with skin conditions during his teenage years.

He was able to bring his business idea to life through Go Succeed’s Start programme and continues to thrive through its Growth programme.

Chris’ love for skincare is a personal one, having suffered with stubborn acne which “wreaked havoc” not only his skin, but his mental health.

Fast forward to his thirties and Chris started his battle with rosacea which he cleared with “game changing” cosmeceutical skincare which he offers now at his clinic with the goal of helping others going through similar problems.

Now with a mission to help others, Chris turned to Go Succeed to make his plans a reality.
