"Patients’ needs are very diverse when it comes to cosmetic procedures," says Dr Ahmed Salman, clinical director of Auralia, the cosmetic and surgical weight loss clinic based in Dublin, Limerick and Kilkenny. While 85 per cent of his patients are female, there are a growing number of men seeking cosmetic procedures.

Auralia is the only clinic with two fully-serviced operating theatre facilities in-house. Most surgeries are carried out in one day. Cosmetic surgery can be life changing and it is vitally important to be able to talk through your concerns and aspirations with the surgeon and challenge him on every aspect.

Botox and fillers are on the increase as people seek out more moderate cosmetic procedures, he explains. They are medical procedures and, as such, require medical skill and training to do the job correctly and safely. Dr Salman urges people seeking Botox and fillers to always check out the credentials and qualifications of those seeking to administer such services outside a clinical environment.
