Women’s Health

A woman’s health is her total well-being, mentally, physically, sexually and emotionally. Aesthetic Medicine & Women’s Health is the study of facial and body, beauty and health, in as much as understanding the psychology of our perception of health and how to achieve this.

What makes a woman healthy and youthful (not necessarily younger)? It’s not about looking ‘twenty years younger’. It’s about looking and feeling exceptional for your age. Naturally, wonderfully, you!

A woman’s sense of well being can be tested daily. There are many factors both intrinsic and extrinsic that can have a big impact, both positively and negatively on our health and confidence. These include lifestyle choices, diet, exercise, partners, children and our changing bodies.

We do our best to stay active, eat well, and develop our sense of self and self worth.

Despite our greatest efforts, to better ourselves and improve, we are all subject to biology, to the ageing changes that occur to our bodies as we go through the years, and the affect this has on us psychologically and hormonally.

Understanding the ageing process allows us to refine, improve and develop our features, delivering natural results, as well as identifying the changes in a woman’s life, body and sexual health, all of which can impact on her mood and self esteem.

Skin

Skin is extremely important. It is the largest organ in the body and a central factor in human appearance. Whether we are aware of it or not, our skin has a profound influence on human interaction and psychological wellbeing. It is the first thing people see when they meet us and the only part we see of each other that is truly ‘us’. What is more, skin is a visual reflection of inner health and wellbeing and the first place we are likely to notice signs of ageing.

In spite of all this, skin is usually taken for granted and often neglected by both doctors and patients. Skin health can have a direct effect on quality of life, which is a relatively new concept.

At Dr Nestor’s Medical Cosmetic Centre we believe that every person not only can achieve great skin, but that they deserve great skin! We are passionate about skin health and taking an innovative approach to delivering a doctor-led skin health service. Using cutting edge, medical grade products and evidence-based, clinically proven treatments we aim to address all facets of skin health. Everyone can benefit, whether healthy skin is to augment results of other aesthetic treatments or not.

Our doctors focus on restoring your skin’s health and reversing the affects of ageing. We are able to focus on specific concerns such as scarring, acne, sun spots, rosacea, and melasma. Treatment options include advanced ZO skin health systems, chemical peels, medical needling, Volite hydrating injections and lasers.
