Kristeen Geddes RGN NIP

I started out my nursing career in 2003 after qualifying from Dundee University in with a BA in Nursing. I began my career working in Renal Dialysis and I then acquired a post working in a large accident and emergency department before commencing my aesthetics career the same year. I then further enhanced my career by completing my Nurse Independent Practitioners qualification at Stirling University(2011). This allows me to be able to conduct my own face to face consultations and prescribe medication. I have also gained a Bsc in Professional Practice(Dermatology) and completed my PGd in Clinic Dermatology in 2021. . I have also completed my minor surgical training in Tayside which allows me to carry our minor surgical procedures such as benign lesion removal within our minor surgical clinics. I carry out mole check clinics as well as referrals to the NHS.

I am a regular contributor to the JAN and have 2 publications titled ‘Age related changes in women undergoing the menopause’ and ‘Upper face augmentation using dermal fillers’.

I am a trainer  to Doctors Dentists and Nurses at our training academy here in Dundee learning basic skills  in botulinum toxin and dermal fillers to the more advanced mid and lower face augmentation as well as skin health. I am on the ZO UK Academy as a key knowledge leader and Brand Ambassador for Teoxane Dermal Fillers. I have over 14 years of medical aesthetics knowledge and skills.

I attend peer to peer groups as well as keep up to date with regular training. I was invited to work alongside the top 15 injectors around the country at The Royal College of Surgeons and am proud to be  regarded as a highly skilled injector with a continuous national training programme and awarded Best Medical Aesthetician in 2016 by The Edinburgh Clinic. I was a finalist in the prestigious Aesthetic Awards in 2015 and 2021 where I won commanded for Best Clinic Scotland. The Aesthetic Awards recognises the top clinics around the UK. I was  highly commended in 2017 for Best Clinic Scotland. In 2017 we won Best Clinic Scotland, Best Training Institute and Best Medical Aesthetician making us a multi award winning clinic.

I am committed to helping my clients in many ways from non surgical treatments to skin health solutions for the face and body.  After seeing so many teenagers and adults battling acne and scarring I done lots of research into world renowned Dr Zein Obagi of Beverley Hills. Seeing his amazing results that were being achieved with his unique protocols I decided I wanted to learn from Dr Obagi himself and it was then that I sent my CV off to the institute in Beverley Hills.  I was accepted out of hundreds of applicants to train under his strict guidance and  in February this year I flew for 4 days to train with 14 others from around the globe. This allowed me to thoroughly understand Dr Obagi philosophy on skin health. Based on his latest technologies I am able to offer advanced skin assessments to clients that deliver exceptional results for all skin types, genders, colours and ages. We now have  an extensive client base on our database who suffer from dermatological conditions such as  acne and scarring to the more common rosacea skin conditions that we treat with our unique protocols.

Our clinics progressive ideas have led to the development of more effective protocols and treatments to deliver outstanding results. My passion for sharing knowledge has led me to have some of the most dramatic before and after pictures of my clients. With my dedication to my clients and my work this has allowed me to achieve the best results and optimise patient responses and provide the necessary solutions to elevate my patients skin. Based on the latest advancements in skin therapy technology that I have learnt from Dr Obagi and our clinic’s portfolio of the latest treatments all of our staff are able to deliver exceptional results for all skin types, colour, gender and ages.
