Many people see aesthetics as anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers only. DANAI (Dermatology Aesthetic Nurses Association Ireland ) nurses are trained in, and passionate about overall skin health.
Most individuals don’t want drastic changes in their appearance and just want to look well for their age. In our experience the majority of people don’t want to change how they look. They wish to improve and enhance their appearance and slow down the visible signs of ageing.
Dermatology Aesthetic Nurses take the time to understand the needs of their patients and advising the most beneficial treatments for skin health that will achieve excellent results is a priority.
As nurses they take a holistic approach to each individual. They take an in-depth medical history and decipher the best route for each patient. Sometimes this might be no treatment at all or referral to a Dermatologist, their GP or a hospital specialist.
There are other factors to take account of, grief, anxiety and physical pain can manifest on the face. It is the job of a trained healthcare professional to help the individual, by offering the most effective and beneficial treatment for that individual, and sometimes offering advice on seeking help from other health care providers is part of that process.
Studies have shown that individuals who look younger than their chronological age are biologically healthier and lifestyle factors play a major role in a youthful appearance, such as not smoking, limiting alcohol and sugar consumption, healthy diet, etc.
This means when we look well we feel well, and the body is healthier. This is exactly why aesthetic treatments not only enhance our general appearance but also enhance our overall well being.
