Why Baudelaire
A poet’s idea of beauty.
The clinic is named for Charles Baudelaire, the poet who spent his life on one question: what is beauty, really. His answer was that it is never a single thing. Beauty, he wrote, is made of two parts. One is eternal, shared by every face ever called beautiful. The other is particular: your features, your age, the life written into them, the part that belongs to you alone. Most aesthetic medicine treats only the first and quietly erases the second. We are named for him because we work the other way around.

What we believe
Three ideas the clinic is built on.
N° I
Reveal, not fix
The face that brought you here is not a problem to solve. The proportions that read as beauty are, for the most part, already yours. Time moves them, it rarely takes them. Our work is to read what has shifted and put it back, so you recognise yourself again instead of meeting a younger stranger.
N° II
Courage, not vanity
Baudelaire admired the dandy, and it had little to do with clothes. What he prized was the discipline beneath it: a person who holds their own appearance to a standard by will, as self-respect rather than display. Vanity performs for an audience. This is the opposite, a private seriousness about oneself that Baudelaire thought took a quiet kind of courage. To book a consultation is to hold yourself to that standard, to say you deserve to feel like yourself. That is not vanity, and it asks more courage than most people admit. We meet it without judgement.
N° III
The mirror should match the soul
Baudelaire believed the outside and the inside answer to each other. When the face in the mirror stops matching the person behind it, when you feel rested but look tired, the gap is real and it wears on you. Closing it is the whole of what we do. Not a different face. The one that agrees with you.

The standards
What we will not do.
A clinic is defined as much by its refusals as its treatments. These are ours.
- 01
Treatment without consultation. Every patient is assessed before anything is proposed.
- 02
Trend-led interventions. We practise anatomical aesthetics, not fashionable ones.
- 03
Upselling. If the right plan is patience, that is the plan we write.
- 04
Hidden pricing. Fees are published and honoured.
- 05
Promises. Outcomes are given in ranges, with timelines, always.

The practitioner
Dr Dana Beiki
A prescribing pharmacist and a research scientist with a PhD in photobiology, trained in dermatology and in aesthetic medicine to Level 7. Few who treat faces have also done the science. It means he reads the original research himself and weighs a treatment on the evidence, not on the claims made for it. He carries out every consultation and aesthetic treatment personally, and recommends nothing he cannot explain.

The Fotona partnership
You will also meet Dr Jacek.
The Fotona laser at Baudelaire is shared work with Dr Jacek Sitkiewicz, an expert in cosmetic dentistry who took a master’s in laser and built his practice around the precision it allows. That depth on the instrument is his.
Brought together with Dr Beiki’s aesthetic medicine, it lets the clinic work skin from two directions at once, the surface and the structure beneath. The resurfacing, the vascular work, and the NightLase protocol for snoring sit inside that partnership.

The clinic
A new clinic, quietly run.
Baudelaire works from a treatment suite inside the Goodlight Wellness Center in Bath, a newly built medical building a short walk from Bath Spa station. It is quiet and full of daylight, with step-free access throughout.
You are seen by appointment, in a private room, with the door closed and the phone away. No reception noise, no rushed handovers.
