Our Story

About Estelworld Clinic

Founded by award-winning beauty educator Saniye Unal, Estelworld Clinic brings over 15 years of industry experience to two North London locations. We don’t just perform treatments — we set the standard for them.

Meet Our Founder

Saniye Unal

Saniye Unal is a leading figure in the UK beauty and aesthetics industry. She founded Estelworld Clinic in 2010 with a simple mission: to provide the highest quality treatments using the best technology available — and to make them accessible to every skin type.

But Saniye’s vision didn’t stop at running a clinic. In 2014, she established Estelworld College, a VTCT-approved training centre that has since trained over 1,000 learners and issued more than 5,000 certificates across Level 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 qualifications in beauty, aesthetics, and hairdressing.

Her dedication to empowering women — particularly stay-at-home mums looking to build a new career — has been recognised with multiple prestigious awards. Saniye doesn’t just teach beauty; she transforms lives through it.

One of those lives is her business partner, Ayse, who came through the Estelworld College programme as a stay-at-home mum, graduated, and went on to open her own clinic. Today, Ayse works alongside Saniye as a co-director of Estelworld Clinic — a testament to the quality of training and mentorship that defines everything Estelworld does.

Our Journey

From One Clinic to a Beauty Institution

2010

Estelworld Clinic Founded

Saniye Unal opens Estelworld Clinic in London with a mission to provide high-quality beauty and aesthetics services, setting a new standard for the industry.

2014

Estelworld College Launches

Saniye’s passion for empowering women leads to the founding of Estelworld College in Hornsey. The first class of six learners graduates with VTCT qualifications in beauty. A new chapter begins.

2018

Expansion to Edmonton

The college moves to larger premises in Edmonton and introduces hairdressing courses. Ayse, a stay-at-home mum and Estelworld graduate, transforms her life through the programme and becomes Saniye’s business partner.

2021

International Recognition

Estelworld receives the “Europe’s Most Trendsetting Aesthetics Centre” award at the Business and Sports Awards in Istanbul — putting the clinic on the international stage.

2024

Level 5 & 7 Qualifications

The college begins offering advanced Level 5 and 7 aesthetics qualifications through a new partnership with Qualify, solidifying Estelworld’s position at the forefront of beauty education.

2026

Two Clinics, One Mission

Estelworld Clinic now operates from two North London locations — Dalston and Edmonton — with the Candela GMax Pro dual-wavelength system, treating all skin types from Fitzpatrick I to VI. Over 1,000 learners trained. The journey continues.

Our Technology

Why We Chose the Candela GMax Pro

When it came to choosing our laser technology, we didn’t compromise. The communities we serve in Dalston and Edmonton are among the most diverse in London — our clients have every skin tone imaginable, from very fair to very dark.

Most laser systems use a single wavelength that works well on some skin types but not others. That wasn’t good enough for us. The Candela GMax Pro is a dual-wavelength system — Alexandrite 755nm for lighter skin and Nd:YAG 1064nm for darker skin — meaning we can treat every client safely and effectively, regardless of their skin type.

It’s FDA-approved, medical-grade, and widely considered the gold standard in laser hair removal. Many practitioners call it the “Rolls-Royce of lasers” — and it’s the same technology used in Harley Street clinics.

We chose it because our clients deserve the best. No compromises, no limitations, no turning anyone away because of their skin colour.

What We Stand For

Our Values

Honesty First

If a treatment isn’t right for you, we’ll tell you. We’d rather lose a sale than put your skin at risk. Every consultation starts with honest advice and realistic expectations.

Inclusive by Design

We invested in dual-wavelength technology specifically so we could treat every skin type. Dalston and Edmonton are beautifully diverse — our clinic reflects that.

Education-Led

With a nationally recognised college behind us, our practitioners don’t just follow protocols — they understand the science. Training is in our DNA.

Training & Education

The Estelworld College Advantage

Not Just a Clinic — A Training Institution

What sets Estelworld apart from other clinics? We run our own nationally recognised beauty college. Estelworld College is a VTCT-approved training centre offering qualifications from Level 2 through to Level 7 in beauty, aesthetics, and hairdressing.

This means our clinic practitioners are trained to the highest industry standards — many of them right here, by our founder Saniye Unal herself. The college is located next door to our Edmonton clinic, and students gain hands-on experience treating real clients under expert supervision.

When you visit Estelworld Clinic, you’re not just getting a treatment — you’re benefiting from a team that has education, science, and clinical excellence at its core.
