Q4 2020

22 GHP / Q4 2020 , Jun20403 Based in TunbridgeWells, Kent, Dr. Christine Or is an award-winning aesthetic doctor and founder of Dr. ChristineMedical Aesthetics. She has gained a reputation amongst her patients and peers as a highly skilled and caring expert in aesthetic medicine, and this has been recognised by Global Health and PharmaMagazine who have awarded her the title Aesthetic Doctor of the Year 2020 at the Global Excellence Awards. Dedicated Doctor Deserves Success Dr. Christine offers medical aesthetic treatments to reduce the signs of ageing and rejuvenate the face, including anti-wrinkle injections, dermal filler treatments, chemical peels, medical microneedling and medical grade skincare. She specialises in the 8 point lift and was selected by the Allergan Medical Institute to train with renouned plastic surgeon Mauricio de Maio who pioneered the technique. This non-surgical facelift uses advanced dermal filler techniques to subtly lift the face to give a fresher appearance. Having graduated from Guys and St.Thomas’s Hospital Medical School, Dr.Christine undertook further training to become a GP and developed a special interest in dermatology. She went on to expand her love of aesthetic medicine with extensive training in Harley Street and with the Allergan Medical Institute. As her 4 children became more independent, Dr. Christine transitioned to full-time Aesthetic Medicine and in 2016 won the title Aesthetic Practitioner of the Year at the Kent Health and Beauty Awards. Her mission is to take a holistic approach to her patients. “Aesthetic medicine is not simply about treating facial lines, wrinkles and sagging, it is about understanding how these lines and wrinkles make my patient feel and ensuring my treatment will address these issues most importantly too. Seeing the joy and improved self-esteem and self-confidence that a treatment brings to my patients fuels my passion to provide treatments of the highest standard”. Safety is at the heart of her medical aesthetic practice, and as well as achieving excellence status with Saveface, she is also on the expert panel at Saveface and a member of ACE (The Aesthetics Complications Expert Group). Her philosophy is “less is more” when it comes to aesthetic treatments. Often known as “tweakments”, she strives to achieve a natural, fresher and less tired look for her patients which is in harmony with the whole face. Her patients do not want to look as if they have had any work done, and indeed 95% of her patients choose to keep their visits to the clinic a secret and do not tell their friends or partners that they have any treatments at all! Dr. Christine sets herself apart from other clinics by providing a uniquely personal service. The patient journey starts with a thorough consultation where Dr. Christine takes her time to listen to her patients’ concerns and understand their aesthetic goals. Following a full medical history and examination, she is then able to discuss the best treatment options to address their concerns and formulate a personalised treatment plan. “This year, due to Covid-19, the consultation has moved online, and this has brought an extra dimension to the consultation, allowing for a more intimate chat and often involving my patients grabbing their latest skincare from the bathroom to show me!” The secret to Dr.Christine’s success is not only the outstanding results that she is able to achieve with her advanced injecting skills, artistic eye and attention to detail, but her ability to truly look after her patients holistically, and this is echoed in hundreds of gushing patient testimonials online. With the recent Covid-19 pandemic this year, Dr.Christine moved her medical practice to a purpose built boutique clinic which has further enhanced the patient experience, providing a private and discreet Covid-secure clinical setting with on-site parking and an exclusive “by appointment only” system. Dr Christine is an exceptional aesthetic doctor, bringing together the science and art of aesthetic medicine, and patients can rest easy in the knowledge that they are in the best possible hands.
