Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your visit. If your question isn’t answered here, feel free to get in touch.

Your First Visit

What happens during a consultation?

Your initial consultation is completely free and lasts between 15 and 30 minutes. Nadia will carry out a thorough skin assessment, discuss your concerns and goals, and give honest recommendations based on what your skin actually needs. There is no pressure to book any treatment on the day.

Is there anything I need to do before my appointment?

Ideally, arrive with a clean face free of makeup. Avoid blood-thinning medications (such as ibuprofen or aspirin) for 24 hours prior if possible, and avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your appointment. Specific pre-care instructions will be shared when you book.

Do treatments hurt?

Most clients describe treatments as a mild pinch or slight discomfort rather than pain. Numbing cream is applied before injectable treatments to keep you comfortable throughout. Nadia takes her time and works gently, so you are never rushed or caught off guard.

Treatments

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

That is exactly what your consultation is for. Nadia will assess your skin, listen to your concerns, and recommend the most suitable treatment or plan. She will never push a treatment you do not need.

How long do results last?

Results vary depending on the treatment. Anti-wrinkle injections typically last 3 to 4 months. Dermal fillers last between 9 and 18 months depending on the area and product used. Skin boosters such as Profhilo last around 6 months. Nadia will discuss expected timelines during your consultation.

What is the downtime?

Most treatments involve minimal downtime. You may experience some redness, mild swelling, or light bruising for 24 to 48 hours, particularly with injectable treatments. Facials generally have no downtime at all. Nadia will provide full aftercare instructions for your specific treatment.

Safety

Is it safe?

Absolutely. Nadia is a fully insured, certified advanced aesthetics practitioner. She uses only medical-grade products from trusted, regulated suppliers and follows strict hygiene and safety protocols. Your safety and wellbeing are always the top priority.

What if I don't like the results?

A free follow-up appointment is offered at two weeks post-treatment so Nadia can review your results and make any adjustments if needed. In the case of dermal fillers, they can be dissolved if you are not happy. Nadia always prioritises your comfort and satisfaction.

Are the products medical-grade?

Yes. Nadia exclusively uses clinical-grade products from trusted, established brands such as Circadia. Every product has been personally tested and vetted before being introduced into treatments or recommended to clients.

Practical

How much does it cost?

Treatments start from as little as £25 for vitamin B12 injections. Consultations are always free. Full pricing is available on each treatment page, and flexible finance options are also available to help spread the cost.

Do you offer finance?

Yes. Finance is available through FacesConsent, allowing you to spread the cost of your treatments into manageable monthly payments. Ask Nadia during your consultation for more details.
