Q2 2026

61 GHP Q2 2026 AIM-May26125 At her medical aesthetic clinic in the heart of County Durham, Dr Tracey Hopwood delivers a wide range of treatments, such as antiwrinkle injections and dermal fillers, with the purpose of improving the appearance and confidence of her patients. Every treatment delivered is done so using the highest quality techniques and products, reflecting Tracey’s top priorities of patient safety and satisfaction. This is something that comes from her medical background, which may have officially began when she qualified as a doctor in 1995 from the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, but actually dates back much further. See, Tracey has been fascinated by the anatomy and the inner workings of the body since she was a child, and was the first one from a family of soldiers and police offers to pursue a career in the field of medicine. Upon qualifying as a doctor, Tracey went on to train as a GP, which allowed her to combine her enthusiasm for medicine with her naturally personable nature and serve people according to a holistic, family-centred approach. Alongside being a GP, Tracey has further honed her skills over the years by training as a specialist in multiple sclerosis and managing drug and alcohol issues for patients in need. Of course, the focus here is on her role as an aesthetician, and this is something that dates back more than 17 years, to her first partnership. Developing an interest in aesthetic medicine, Tracey set up her own clinic, starting out with some basic injectable treatments and building from there. Today, Tracey continues to work two days a week for the NHS, and is the medical director of the Save Face-accredited Invicta Aesthetics. Guided by her practical skills and a keen eye for aesthetics, Tracey loves the delight she brings and the increased self-confidence her patients experience after receiving these treatments, which cover everything from dermal filers and chemical fillers to dermatology consultations, fat dissolving, microneedling, skin boosters, NeoGen, vitamin B12 injections, and Botox, alongside laser treatments using the advanced fractional CO2 laser. These help to treat a number of aesthetic concerns. Some of the most common areas of concern Invicta Aesthetics deals with are jowls/loss of jawline definition, acne scars, fine lines/ wrinkles, volume loss, thin lips, double chin, sagging skin, uneven skin tone, rosacea/redness, enlarged pores, tired-looking skin, excessive sweating, teeth grinding, smoker’s lines, and benign skin lesions. The recognition that every client is unique when it comes to their skin and facial concerns sees all of these treatments tailored to the individual, ensuring they leave the clinic confident. Anyone in search of healthy, glowing skin in North East England should pay a visit to Invicta Aesthetics, a friendly and modern clinic based in Easington Village, County Durham. At the helm of the clinic is Dr Tracey Hopwood, a GP with more than 15 years of experience in the world of aesthetics. Her background in medicine paves the way for a patient journey ending with the natural, rejuvenated results they desire, ultimately leading to Invicta Aesthetics’ recognition here as the Best Doctor-Led Aesthetics Clinic 2026 – Northeast England. Wonderful Transformations at a Doctor-Led Aesthetics Clinic Joining Tracey in upholding the values of patient-centred care, safety, and high-quality treatments is Genevieve Hopwood, a 19-year-old student paramedic and advanced aesthetic injector who entered the aesthetics industry last year and has since completed advanced injector training. Genevieve combines strong clinical foundations with a focus on natural, confidence-boosting results, making her a seamless fit for the clinic. Genevieve’s clinical training and the scope of services she offers are both set to ramp up over the coming months, and this is one of the main projects for the clinic as it moves through the second half of 2026. This will help Invicta Aesthetics to meet the demand for its services and improve the efficiency of the clinic, two things that will continue to set it apart as it looks to raise the bar across this space. Reflecting the high-calibre work Invicta Aesthetics carries out are the more than 220 reviews it has online, giving it an overall score of 4.9/5. As one patient wrote: “Invicta Aesthetics was, quite simply, amazing. I left feeling so much happier and more comfortable in my own skin and I can’t thank Tracey enough for that. I have already arranged my next visit and I know that won’t be the last. If you’re considering an aesthetic treatment, please look no further that Invicta Aesthetics.” Through this award, we echo the thoughts and feelings of its patients and celebrate Invicta Aesthetics as the go-to doctor-led aesthetics clinic in the region.
