My name is Karen Park, I am a registered general nurse with nine years nhs/private sector service.

I developed a keen interest in medical aesthetics several years ago while accompanying a family member who was having a procedure done. After some research and much thought and reflection, my interest deepened as I became more aware of the safety aspects and the vulnerable patient. In the summer of 2016 I decided to proceed with the training necessary to become an aesthetic practitioner. I completed my Botox and dermal filler training with Mr. Taimer Shoaib (consultant plastic surgeon) in November 2016. Since completing this training I have continued to regularly update my skills both independently with the relevant training days, and with the companies who supply our products.

I joined Beauty Health Aesthetics in December 2016 and have been mentored by advanced nurse practitioner and owner Julia Ogilvie. Since joining BHA I have developed a particular interest in skincare and treatments such as Thermavein and chemical peels. I have most recently completed dermaplaning training and have now added this to our services.
