Self-Image and Society

A Medical and Psychological Approach to Self-Image

At ØNE aesthetic studiø, we approach aesthetics far beyond physical treatments. Our work is rooted in a deep understanding of psychology, self-perception, and emotional wellbeing.

Dr Jonquille Chantrey brings together completely unique clinical experience and academic research in neuroscience and plastic surgery to support patients in building a healthier relationship with themselves. Driven by a longstanding passion for understanding the relationship between identity, the brain, and physical expression, her work has evolved through years of patient management and formal research.

We focus on understanding the person behind the concern, identifying both the psychological and physical drivers of self-image, and creating personalised, evidence-based treatment plans that support not only your appearance, but confidence, clarity, and emotional wellbeing.

We focus on:

Understanding your individual goals and motivations
Identifying the emotional drivers behind your aesthetic concerns
Supporting realistic, natural outcomes that remain aligned with your identity
Prioritising your psychological wellbeing alongside any physical treatment

This ensures that your aesthetic journey is not about perfection, but about alignment, confidence, and self-acceptance.

Holistic Care at ØNE aesthetic studiø

At ØNE aesthetic studiø, we recognise that self-image is multidimensional. That is why we take a collaborative and holistic approach to your care.

Our process may include:

In-depth aesthetic and wellbeing consultations tailored to you
Personalised treatment planning based on your needs and goals
Collaboration with psychologists and wellness professionals where appropriate
Long-term support focused on your confidence and emotional resilience

This integrated model ensures that you are supported as a whole person, not just a set of aesthetic concerns.

Self-image sits at the core of how we experience ourselves and the world around us, directly influencing confidence, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and the way we show up in daily life. At ØNE aesthetic studiø, we explore the powerful connection between self-image and society, and how modern pressures shape the way we see ourselves.

This conversation is guided by leading medical doctor and published researcher Dr Jonquille Chantrey, whose work focuses on self-perception, psychological wellbeing, and the patient journey in aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery.

The Benefits of Improving Self-Image

Clinical and psychological studies consistently show that improving self-image can lead to:

Reduced anxiety and stress
Improved emotional resilience
Greater life satisfaction and confidence
Healthier relationships with self and others
A more positive, grounded sense of identity

This journey is not about changing who you are. It is about feeling more at ease in your own skin and aligning your external appearance with your internal sense of self.

What Is Self-Image?

Self-image is the internal picture you hold of yourself, how you perceive your appearance, abilities, and worth. It is not fixed; it is shaped continuously by experience, environment, relationships, and cultural influence.

Research consistently shows that:

Around 80% of people experience dissatisfaction with their appearance
Individuals with a positive self-image are significantly more likely to report higher happiness and life satisfaction
Self-perception directly influences confidence, resilience, and emotional wellbeing

A strong, balanced self-image is therefore not simply about appearance, it is about mental health, identity, and quality of life.

Society, Beauty Standards & the Impact on Self-Perception

In today’s digitally driven world, we are constantly exposed to curated and often unrealistic beauty ideals. Social media, advertising, and entertainment industries all contribute to shaping what is considered “normal” or “desirable.”

Clinical research highlights that:

Frequent exposure to idealised images can lower self-esteem and increase body dissatisfaction
Comparison culture contributes to anxiety around appearance and ageing
External validation can become a dominant factor in self-worth

However, studies also show that self-image can be significantly improved through:

Mindfulness practices
Healthy relationships and support systems
Personal achievements and goal setting
Holistic self-care routines

Understanding these influences is the first step toward reclaiming a healthier, more authentic self-image.

Integrating Aesthetic Medicine with Self-Image

Our clinical methodology takes a multimodal approach, integrating advanced treatments such as polynucleotides, Profhilo, laser skin therapy, medical facials, chemical peels, and injectable treatments including anti-wrinkle therapy, dermal fillers, and Juvéderm Skinvive.

These are combined with technologies including red light therapy, near infrared light therapy, and EMS muscle stimulation for the face and body, supporting cellular function, skin quality, and structural integrity. Each treatment is selected and sequenced as part of a wider, personalised plan designed to align physical outcomes with psychological wellbeing.

This ensures that any aesthetic journey is not about perfection, but about alignment, confidence, and self-acceptance.
