Even though you have had treatment elsewhere it is still really important to have a consultation so that I can assess your treatment goals and make sure that I am offering the right treatment for your needs. As some treatments are carried out with prescription medication the doses will need to be checked and the right amount prescribed for you.

I recommend that ideally treatment should be completed around 6 weeks before a big event. This means that your facial aesthetics consultation needs to be around 4- 6 weeks before this. The reason for this is to make sure your treatment appointment can be booked in time and to ensure that the results have settled. So, book your appointment AT LEAST 2 months before a special occasion.

I will help to discuss the options and the anticipated results associated with each one. There is often more than one option for treatment and it is useful to know what treatments are available to you along with the risks and benefits of them. One treatment does not suit all and what is right for one person is not necessarily right for another.

Dermal fillers are an injectable material used to restore lost volume or to fill lines around the face. The majority of fillers are made up from a stabilised form of hyaluronic acid which also acts to add hydration to the skin. There are a wide range of different dermal filler products that come in varying consistencies from very thick to much thinner. The materials used for treatment are carefully selected depending on how they are being used and the desired outcome.

The best way to get booked in is to call 01454 313 189 and talk to one of the fabulous Reception team who have access to the Dental Diary and will be able to get you a suitable appointment. An upfront payment of the consultation fee needs to be provided at the time of booking your first appointment.

This depends on your individual requirements and risk of problems occurring. For the vast majority of people I will recommend once every 6 months or yearly to enable screening for new disease such as dental decay, gum disease and oral cancer.

I kindly ask that if you are unable to attend your appointment that you call the Reception team on 01454 313 189 as soon as you are able to. I do understand that circumstances beyond your control do crop up on occasion and this will be taken into account, however missed appointments may be charged for.

All major bank cards are accepted as well as cash. Large treatment plans are often broken down into more manageable payments and appointments can be planned accordingly. Payment plans are now available to spread the cost of treatment.

Maybe you haven’t been to the dentist and are worried because you feel you will be judged. ​ Kathryn realises that dental anxiety and phobias are genuine and can present in different ways. Non-attendance (avoidance) is a normal way to manage true fear. ​ If you are looking for a dentist to look after you and your teeth, Kathryn understands that this is often accompanied with feeling nervous or anxious and will not judge you or make you feel embarrassed for having not attended in the past, no matter how long it has been. ​ Kathryn will work with you to find a way for you to comfortably have the treatment you need. There is a no one size fits all approach and what works for one person may not be what is right for another. Kathryn will work to understand your needs and work with you appropriately.
