Medical Dermatology Behind Every Aesthetic Decision

Botulinum toxin, fillers, lasers, peels and skin rejuvenation — guided by expert dermatological assessment.

Send enquiry

At Florence Nightingale Hospitals, aesthetic skin treatments begin with a thorough dermatological assessment to understand each patient’s skin condition, type and individual needs. From injectables and laser treatments to chemical peels and topical therapies, treatment options are selected to support natural-looking results and personalised care. This approach also allows our specialists to identify skin concerns that may require further medical evaluation.

Why Florence Nightingale for Dermatocosmetology?

Dermatologist-led. Device-agnostic. Honest about what is temporary.

JCI certificate — Istanbul Florence Nightingale Hospital View certificate

  • Dermoscopy and skin cancer screening available alongside aesthetic treatment, because the same doctor is already looking at your skin

Dermatocosmetology Treatment Programs

Botulinum Toxin (Botox)

Softening expression lines on the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles. Also used for a heavy brow, jaw slimming, neck bands and excessive sweating. Effects appear over several days and last roughly three to four months.

Starting from (GBP)
£150One session in Istanbul
£200One session in London

Dermal Fillers

Hyaluronic acid used to restore lost volume and support structure — cheeks, temples, tear troughs, lips, chin and jawline. Adjustable, temporary and, importantly, reversible with an enzyme if the result is not what you wanted. We treat structural loss rather than chasing fullness.

Injectable Skin Rejuvenation (Mesotherapy & Polynucleotides)

Fine micro-injections of hydrating and conditioning solutions — hyaluronic acid with vitamins, or polynucleotides, sometimes marketed as salmon-DNA treatment — to improve hydration, brightness and texture. This improves skin quality; it does not add volume or lift, and results need maintenance.

Laser & Light Treatment

Device-based treatment for pigmentation, broken capillaries and facial redness, uneven texture and unwanted hair. Wavelength, settings and number of sessions are matched to your skin phototype — using the wrong settings on darker skin causes pigmentation problems that take months to resolve.

Laser Hair Removal

A course of sessions to reduce unwanted hair, spaced according to the growth cycle. Realistically this is long-term reduction rather than permanent removal, and it works best on dark hair. Fine or light hair responds poorly, and we will say so before you pay for a course.

Chemical Peels

Superficial to medium-depth peels for dullness, congestion, pigmentation and superficial acne scarring. Depth and agent are chosen by skin type and diagnosis, with realistic downtime explained in advance.

Microneedling & RF Microneedling

Controlled micro-injury, with or without radiofrequency energy, to stimulate collagen for acne scarring, enlarged pores, texture and mild laxity. Delivered as a short course, with progressive rather than immediate improvement.

Melasma & Pigmentation Treatment

Structured, long-term management of a genuinely stubborn condition, combining prescription topicals, strict photoprotection and carefully selected in-clinic treatment. Melasma is controlled rather than cured, and aggressive laser treatment frequently makes it worse — an honest plan is worth more than a fast one.

Acne & Acne Scarring

Medical treatment of active acne first, including oral options where appropriate, and only then scar treatment with microneedling, lasers, peels or subcision. Treating scars while acne is still active wastes both time and money.

Rosacea & Facial Redness

Proper diagnosis of the underlying cause, followed by a tailored treatment plan to reduce redness and manage flare-ups.

Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)

Botox treatment for underarms, palms or soles, giving months of relief — a small procedure with an outsized effect on daily life.

Dermoscopy & Mole Checks

Digital dermoscopy of moles and pigmented lesions, with removal and histopathology arranged if anything looks suspicious — available on its own or alongside aesthetic treatment.

How We Keep Treatment Safe for Your Skin

Fitzpatrick Skin Typing

Your phototype determines which lasers and peel depths are safe. Wrong settings on darker skin cause pigmentation problems that can take months to fade — checked before treatment, not after.

Telling Melasma From Sun Damage

They look alike but respond to opposite treatments; aggressive laser on melasma often makes it worse. The diagnosis matters more than the device.

Vascular Occlusion Recognition

A rare but real filler complication needing immediate treatment. Being in a hospital with hyaluronidase and medical backup is why this happens here, not at a walk-in clinic.

Neuromodulators vs. Fillers vs. Biostimulators

Each solves a different problem — movement, lost volume, or collagen decline. Using the wrong one is a common reason results disappoint.

Patch Testing & Contraindication Screening

Pregnancy, certain medications and active skin infections rule out specific treatments — screened for at consultation, not after you've paid.

Common Questions

Why does it matter that a dermatologist does this?

Because the diagnosis decides the treatment. Melasma, pigmentation and sun damage look similar but respond very differently to the same laser — and a dermatologist also spots what should be biopsied rather than treated.

Is laser treatment safe for darker skin?

With the right device and settings, yes. With the wrong ones, higher skin phototypes carry a real risk of pigmentation changes, which is why skin typing happens before anything else.

How long do results last?

Botox roughly 3–4 months, fillers 6–18 months. Rejuvenation treatments, peels and microneedling need ongoing maintenance — nothing here is permanent.

Can you review my skin from photos first?

Yes, and it makes your visit far more efficient. A final plan still needs your skin examined in person, since photos flatten texture and hide redness.

Can these treatments replace a facelift?

No. They improve skin quality but don’t remove excess skin or lift significant sagging — for that we’ll refer you to our surgical team.

How is the cost worked out?

After a consultation, we provide an itemised quote based on the treatment and number of sessions required. We don’t publish fixed prices, because the number of sessions and products used are individual to you.
