His passion for facial aesthetics began having completed an oral and maxillofacial surgery post, where he was exposed to treating facial trauma and assisting the head and neck team in large oncology cases. He has since gone on to train with leading Harley Street clinicians and offers a wide range of non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures to complement the creation of beautiful smiles.
