UK-trained physician working at the intersection of aesthetic medicine, dermatology, and longevity. Parisa builds personalised plans that treat the skin and the system underneath it, with the patience the work deserves.

Bio

Parisa is a UK-trained physician, registered with the DHA and GMC. She graduated from Barts and The London School of Medicine, and completed all of her clinical training in the UK, including internal medicine, alongside advanced training in aesthetic medicine. During this time, she developed a strong interest in dermatology through treating a wide range of skin conditions.

Alongside her clinical practice, she gained experience in longevity medicine while working with a UK-based health-tech startup focused on advanced blood testing and the microbiome. The work shaped how she thinks about skin: as a measurable, living record of what is happening inside the body, not a surface to be smoothed over.

Parisa takes a personalised, integrative approach. She combines internal medicine, aesthetics, and longevity science to optimise both skin health and overall wellbeing. Each consultation is unhurried. Each plan is built for the person in front of her, whether the goal is functional, aesthetic, or a combination of both.

“We take the time to understand your goals, then build a plan around them. Functional, aesthetic, or both.”

Answers

Common questions about skin health, aesthetic treatments and choosing an approach that is right for you.

Will dermal fillers make me look overdone?

An overfilled appearance is not inevitable. A conservative plan that respects your facial proportions can aim for subtle changes, although the result depends on the product, placement and your individual anatomy. Fillers are medical procedures, so suitability matters as much as appearance. Swelling and bruising can occur, and rare complications include blocked blood vessels and damage to surrounding tissue. Discuss your goals, previous treatments and acceptable level of change before deciding.

What is the difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers?

Hyaluronic-acid skin boosters are generally used to improve skin hydration and elasticity. Dermal fillers are usually selected to restore volume or define facial contours. Some products overlap, so the label alone does not tell you what a treatment can achieve. The choice depends on whether your concern is dryness, skin quality, volume loss or a combination, and on the evidence, injection risks and suitability of the specific product.

Can acne scars be improved?

Treatment can make some acne scars less noticeable, but the right approach depends on their shape, depth and your skin tone. Laser resurfacing, microneedling and other procedures address different types of scarring, and a combination may be appropriate. Active acne is usually brought under control first to limit new scars. Improvement often takes more than one session. Recovery time, pigment changes and other risks should be weighed against the degree of improvement you hope to achieve.

Is laser treatment right for pigmentation?

Sometimes, but the cause of the pigmentation should be identified first. Sun spots, melasma and marks left after inflammation need different approaches. Laser may help selected concerns, while melasma often starts with sun protection and prescribed skincare. Your skin tone and tendency to develop pigment changes also affect the choice of treatment. A new or changing dark patch should be assessed before cosmetic treatment, and ongoing sun protection remains important after any procedure.
