Am I suitable for anti-wrinkle treatments?
During your consultation we will discuss any reasons that may make you an unsuitable candidate for anti-wrinkle treatments. However, for the most part, the contraindications include (but not limited to); Pregnancy/breastfeeding, under the age of 18, hypersensitivity or allergy to botulinum toxin, certain medications, neuromuscular disorders such as Myasthenia Gravis or Eaton-Lambert Syndrome.

What is a Physician Associate?
The number one question!
Physician Associates (PAs) are medical associate professionals trained through a medical model and work within the multidisciplinary team under the supervision of a doctor. PAs work in GP and hospitals to help assess, investigate, diagnose and treat patients. The profession has recently been regulated by the General Medical Council. At Nue Aesthetics, the work is carried out as an Aesthetic Practitioner, not a Physician Associate.

I have a skin lesion and don't know if it can be frozen off?
Cryotherapy is suitable for a variety of benign skin lesions. This ranges from skin tags, to cherry angiomas to warts to lentigines and more. Sometimes, if patients are willing, images can be sent prior to consultation/treatment to determine if lesions are appropriate. Please feel free to get in touch and we can discuss any concerns.

I've thought about dermal filler but don't want it to be noticeable?
Dermal filler can be used in many ways; to enhance the cheek bones, accentuate the chin to rebalance the face, correct asymmetries in the lips, and of course, soften folds in the skin.
At Nue Aesthetics we aim to provide subtle enhancements to harmonise the facial structures to make you feel more confident in your skin.
