Woodford Medical Aesthetics was set up over ten years ago by former GPs Dr Mervyn Patterson and Dr Hilary Allan following intensive training in the US from leading dermatologists on the very latest state-of-the-art medical aesthetic procedures.
Aesthetic medicine is a huge growth area of medical practice as it provides extremely effective cosmetic treatments for a fraction of the cost of cosmetic surgery and requires, as they say in the US, "no downtime". Treatments are non-invasive, side effects are minimal and clients can get on with their normal routines.
The doctors have four major clinics; Belfast, Cambridge, Essex and London and also treat at other satellite clinics throughout the UK. As leading experts in their field, both doctors are regularly featured on national television demonstrating their treatments as well as being called to speak at international symposia on medical aesthetics.
Dr Patterson is renowned for the way in which he has revolutionised the treatment of ROSACEA and has an international client base. Both doctors are as pioneers in the field of aesthetics. Training and the updating of technology are both ongoing to ensure their patients have access to the very latest treatments and equipment. The doctors are also registered trainers for other medically qualified doctors seeking to branch into aesthetic medicine.
