HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

Your face is in<br />

safe hands<br />

A well-known secret to a<br />

youthful appearance is the<br />

use of cosmetic injectables to<br />

relax wrinkles or replace lost<br />

facial volume.<br />

But if you’re considering having one of these<br />

popular treatments, can you be sure you’re in<br />

safe hands?<br />

At NLM Derma Clinic in Doncaster, patient<br />

safety is their primary focus. The doctor-led<br />

clinic was opened last November by Dr Maciej<br />

Danilewicz who has extensive knowledge and<br />

experience in clinical governance and safety.<br />

Since graduating 25 years ago, Dr Maciej<br />

has worked across multiple areas of medicine<br />

including neurosurgery, major trauma units, and<br />

emergency surgery. He has also undertaken<br />

over 800 hours as a medic for air ambulance<br />

rescue missions and volunteers at St John’s<br />

Ambulance service.<br />

After relocating to the UK in 2010, Dr Maciej<br />

retrained in clinical psychiatry where he spent time<br />

as a general medic at The Priory group. Last year,<br />

his medical company branched out into aesthetics<br />

and medical-grade beauty to protect clients<br />

against the falling standards in the industry.<br />

Unfortunately for the general public, the<br />

aesthetics market in the UK is not regulated.<br />

Anyone can administer dermal fillers or wrinkle<br />

relaxers without any medical training using cheap,<br />

inferior products that haven’t been tested.<br />

Fillers come with the most risks and if<br />

administered incorrectly into an artery can cause<br />

vascular occlusions which could lead to pulmonary<br />

embolism, blindness or stroke.<br />

Even when undertaken by medical<br />

professionals, there will always be an element<br />

of risk. But having medical training means the<br />

practitioner understands the anatomy of the face<br />

and is able to timely manage complications to<br />

prevent harm to the client.<br />

NLM Derma Clinic is the third clinic in the north<br />

of England to use a linear ultrasound machine<br />

with all aesthetics procedures. This enables the<br />

team to see beneath the surface of the skin and<br />

pinpoint exactly where the needle will be injected,<br />

eliminating the risk of hitting an artery. The use of<br />

ultrasound also aids corrective work; being able<br />

to see where the filler is means they don’t need to<br />

inject the whole face with dissolvent.<br />

When choosing a practitioner for aesthetic<br />

treatments, you should always look at the<br />

environment: how is the hygiene, is there access<br />

to emergency medicine, what is the equipment<br />

like? Always consider the cost of the skill<br />

rather than the price you are paying per<br />

millimetre of product.<br />

NLM Derma Clinic follows the same measures<br />

as medical settings. All clients undergo a<br />

consultation before treatment, even for facials.<br />

NLM Derma Clinic is the only clinic in Yorkshire<br />

to partner with Janssen Cosmetics, solely using<br />

their medical-grade products for the upmost<br />

efficiency. All products are refrigerated to retain<br />

their potency and the clinic holds a high standard<br />

of professionalism, safety and cleanliness.<br />

specialising in medical grade<br />

aesthetics and skincare<br />
