Treatments

Tailored to you, not off a menu.

Injectables, skin treatments and body treatments, all under one roof. Which one is right for you is decided at your consultation, and it is not always the one you came in asking for.

How Avismo works

Clinically led, personal, built on trust.

01 / Prescribing

Prescribed in person, never online

Prescription-only treatments start with a face-to-face consultation with our independent nurse prescriber, and treatment follows at a separate appointment with our team.

02 / Safety

We look beneath the skin first

Before injecting filler we can scan with handheld ultrasound to see where the blood vessels run, and plan around them. It is still rare in aesthetic clinics.

Ultrasound-guided injections

03 / Standards

Independently accredited

Avismo is Save Face accredited, which means the clinic, the practitioner and the paperwork have been inspected against a national standard. It is also recommended in The Tweakments Guide.

04 / Skin first

Healthy skin before anything else

Injectables work best on skin that is in good condition. Most plans start with a skin consultation and the right home care, so every treatment afterwards has something to build on.

05 / Results

Natural, never overdone

Our team is known for results that look like you on a good day. If a treatment is not right for you, or not right yet, you will be told so at your consultation.

Karen runs a really lovely clinic for aesthetics. I’d been wanting to give micro-needling a go for about a year and wish I hadn’t waited so long. Karen is super-professional and the procedure was not painful at all. Karen will put you at ease immediately.

Karen has done facial peels and also micro needling for me for over a year and I have been delighted with the results every time. She is a highly qualified nurse prescriber and, working in the NHS myself, I feel huge confidence in her skills and knowledge, and feel very safe in her hands.
