What happens at a first consultation?

Your first consultation is a thorough facial assessment, not a sales appointment. Dr Nina will review your concerns, examine your facial anatomy and discuss your goals before recommending anything. There is no obligation to proceed with any treatment on the day.

Are the treatments painful?

Most treatments involve minimal discomfort. Topical anaesthetic is used where appropriate, and Dr Nina's technique is consistently described by patients as gentle. Any discomfort is brief and well-managed.

How long do results last?

Results vary by treatment. Anti-wrinkle treatments typically last 3 to 4 months; dermal fillers 12 to 18 months; bio-stimulators such as Profhilo® can last 12 to 24 months. Laser treatments offer long-lasting skin improvement. Dr Nina will give you a realistic expectation during your consultation.

Is Dr Nina Bal Save Face accredited?

Yes. Dr Nina Bal holds Save Face Platinum accreditation, the highest level awarded to non-surgical aesthetic practitioners in the UK. She is also GDC registered, a BCAM member and JCCP registered.

"I had EndoLift with Dr Nina at her clinic. I just wanted to share my experience With anyone who is looking to get endo lift or any other procedure done with Dr Nina. She is absolutely amazing so gentle and so kind she is so experienced in her field and knows whats best for you without trying to oversell you rather only whats needed. I was looking for this treatment for my double chin and picked the best place for it! it was a very comfortable treatment took about 30 mins. It permanently dissolves the fat there and tightens the area. She always checked on me to make sure im feeling ok. Its a week now and i can slowly see a difference im a little swollen and sore but the swelling is not noticeable to anyone. Cant wait for full results. Thank you Dr Nina."

"Dr Nina is such a wonderful friend and a Dr! She recommended medical grade skincare to fix my regular breakouts and since being on them for three weeks I have not had a single spot. And that this past year is a miracle. So thank you!! Highly recommend her, she has great listening ears and cares x"

"I was a little nervous to get into the cosmetic procedures game but Dr Nina was so gentle and kind and worked with me to achieve the natural look I wanted. The procedures I had were virtually painless and honestly the skill and artistry has blown me away (I might’ve gotten a bit teary looking at my new nose!) honestly the best thing I’ve ever bought myself - thank you"

"Dr Nina is an artist! Do not hesitate to book an appointment, you will have an amazing experience. I have been going to Nina for the past 4 years. I have had Botox, fillers, under eye bags removed, most recently had a V Soft Line Thread Lower Face Lift (non surgical procedure). I have never felt any pain with any of my treatments or procedures. Nina is so gentle you don’t feel a thing, always caring, always advises the best solution for your face type and your problem area. Every visit I feel so welcomed, like a real VIP"

Facial Sculpting in the press with SheerLuxe: everything you need to know about XERF

SheerLuxe interviews Dr Nina Bal for The K-Beauty Treatment You Need To Know About, Rebecca Hull's feature of 5 October 2026 on XERF, the multifrequency radiofrequency device from Korea. Dr Nina, one of the first doctors in the UK to offer it, explains how it tightens on the day and keeps building collagen over three months: "You won't leave looking like a different person, instead you will look fresher, tighter and more sculpted."

Dr Nina Bal featured in HELLO! Magazine on how to choose an aesthetics doctor

HELLO! Magazine names Dr Nina Bal among the practitioners it recommends, in a feature of 28 September 2026 by Deputy Beauty and Lifestyle Editor Melanie Macleod on why an Instagram page should not decide who treats your face. The point the article makes is that a polished profile shows finished results and not the assessment that produced them. At Facial Sculpting every plan starts with a consultation that reads proportion, volume and skin quality before any treatment is chosen.

Dr Nina Bal featured in MilliOnAir on BBL HEROic, the 'Ferrari' of skin treatments

In the Autumn 2026 issue of MilliOnAir, Juliet Herd tries Sciton's BBL HEROic at Facial Sculpting on the sun damage left by an Australian childhood. Two sessions, two approaches: a gentle first pass before a beach holiday, then a targeted one with the 532+ filter on stubborn brown patches. "It's like an MOT for the skin," Dr Nina promised.
