Ksenia started her training as a Beauty Therapist but quickly realised her true potential and is a fully qualified Registered Nurse and has over 18 years of clinical experience in the field of beauty, aesthetics and wellness. Ksenia is a highly skilled injector and enjoys regenerative medicine.

She is renowned for her subtle yet refined results and is passionate about a holistic approach to ageing. She believes that natural beauty starts from within and has a strong passion for optimising health holistically by adding therapies, such as IV and Ozone Therapy. Most of her anti-ageing protocols are combined with IV therapy to enhance her patients’ natural beauty. Her style is about natural-looking ‘tweakments’ and seeking to restore confidence by helping patients look like the best version of themselves – healthy, rested and rejuvenated – not frozen or over-done.

At the moment, she is finishing her prescribing course which will give her invaluable advantage in her aesthetic journey to improve patient safety practice and focus further on patient-centred care.
