Due to severe weather conditions, heavy rain and power outages, we’ve made the call to close today.

Please stay safe, warm, and off the roads where possible 💞

We’ll confirm plans for tomorrow soon, but for now we are open 🩷

There’s a concept in aesthetics often called the “injector’s eye”… where most people see a face, but a trained eye reads something entirely different underneath the surface.🙌🏽

It’s not just skin. It’s structure, light, shadow, support and how all of it interacts.

Where the untrained eye might notice “tiredness” or “dark circles,” the injector sees:
💉Tear trough depth and transition points
💉Loss of midface support allowing descent into the under-eye
💉Weak orbital rim definition
💉Shadow formation caused by volume loss, not pigmentation alone
💉Subtle asymmetries in facial balance
💉Skin quality and elasticity changes that alter how light reflects

Because the face is essentially a landscape of light, when structure changes, light behaves differently, …creating the impression of fatigue, heaviness, or ageing even when skin itself is relatively healthy.🙌🏽

Volume, borders & balance
One of the biggest signs we see is subtle volume loss in key support zones. When this happens, the “borders” of the face soften, particularly around the tear trough, cheeks and jawline.

The result is less definition and more shadowing. Restoring structure with hyaluronic acid fillers can gently re-establish these contours, not to “change” a face, but to return support where it has diminished.💉

Movement & expression
Then there’s motion. Fine lines and expression patterns are often treated with neuromodulators (botulinum toxin), helping soften overactive muscle pull while preserving natural expression.

At the heart of my approach is simple observation: how structure, light and skin quality interact to create balance in the face. Small, precise refinements can make a meaningful difference to overall harmony and facial restfulness.🙌🏽

Let me treat your skin with intention.💞

THAT “BARKING” COUGH?
It might be Croup.🙌🏽

Croup is a common viral illness in young children that affects the upper airway and it’s known for its very distinctive sound.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT FROM A NORMAL COUGH?
Unlike a chesty or phlegmy cough, croup causes swelling around the voice box and windpipe - which is why the cough sounds barking and the voice becomes hoarse.

WHAT DOES IT SOUND LIKE?
▫️A harsh, barking cough (often compared to a seal)
▫️Hoarse voice
▫️Noisy breathing, especially at night

WHY IT FEELS SCARY:
Symptoms often worsen suddenly at night, which can be alarming for parents.

WHAT YOU CAN DO AT HOME:
▫️Keep your child calm (crying can worsen symptoms)
▫️Sit them upright
▫️Cool night air or steam can sometimes help
▫️Ensure they’re comfortable and hydrated

WHEN TO SEEK HELP:
▫️Struggling to breathe
▫️Breathing is fast or laboured
▫️A high-pitched sound when breathing in (stridor at rest)
▫️Lips or face looking pale or bluish

Most cases are mild and improve within a few days but knowing when to act is key 💓

If you’re unsure, trust your instinct and reach out. I’m here to guide you.💕

Choosing contraception isn’t one-size-fits-all. 🤍
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

Your body, your hormones, your cycle, your medical history, your lifestyle and your future fertility plans all influence what will work best for you…and what won’t.✔️

What suits a 19-year-old athlete may not suit a new mom and what works well for someone with heavy, painful periods may be completely wrong for someone managing migraines, acne, or mood changes. 🤍

Some methods need daily consistency, others are long-acting. Some help regulate hormones, others are hormone-free. And importantly - side effects are not the same for everyone.🙌🏽

There’s also more to consider than just preventing pregnancy. We look at things like menstrual control, acne, bleeding patterns, weight sensitivity, clotting risk, migraine history and how your body has responded to hormones in the past. ✔️

Even your routine and how often you want to think about contraception plays a role.

The goal is to try to find a contraception that fits your life without disrupting it.

Let’s talk through the options properly so you feel informed, supported and confident in your choice.💞

Book a consultation today.🙌🏽

If you’ve made it past 30 and haven’t heard of hyaluronic acid… you’ve either been living under a rock or just lucky enough to already have it working for you 😏

Hyaluronic acid is basically your skin’s hydration powerhouse. It’s a naturally occurring substance in the body that binds water like crazy - think of it as a sponge that keeps your skin plump, bouncy and dewy. 💦

As we age (hello 30+ club), we start to lose it. That’s when fine lines show up, skin feels a bit “flat,” and that glow needs a little help coming back.
Enter: hyaluronic acid in skincare and injectable form. 💉

✨ In skincare, it hydrates the surface, giving that instant glow and smoothness�✨ In injectables (done properly, in the right hands), it restores volume, softens lines and enhances natural facial structure without changing you - just refreshing you 😉

It’s one of the most loved tools in aesthetic medicine because it’s versatile and incredibly natural when done well.

And personally - I love injecting it.

Not because it changes faces, but because when done well, it does the opposite. It brings people back to themselves.

Less “done”.�More “refined”.

Come see me.💉

Wrinkles don't appear overnight and they're rarely caused by just one thing. ✖️✖️
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

As skin loses moisture, natural hyaluronic acid levels drop, making it less elastic.

Daily sun exposure and free radicals slowly break down collagen, while repeated facial movements form expression lines over time.✔️

Add inflammation, oxidative stress, hormonal changes, poor sleep, stress, or smoking into the mix,m and the aging process speeds up even more.

Understanding why wrinkles form helps you manage them better. Hydration, sun protection, antioxidant support, and consistent barrier care matter just as much as anti-aging actives. It's never about chasing instant fixes, but about slowing down the factors that age skin every day.🙌🏽

Book a consultation so we can assess your skin, identify what’s speeding up aging, and create a tailored plan just for you.💞

“Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen!” - Luke 24:5-6 🌞

This weekend always carries a weight I can feel deep in my spirit. It’s a mix of awe, reverence and overwhelming gratitude. To be loved enough that He would walk that road, carry that cross and overcome the grave… it is a love beyond anything we could earn and more beautiful than anything we could ever deserve. 💞

Today, I’m simply thankful. Thankful for grace that meets us where we are. Thankful for a Saviour who didn’t stay in the tomb. Thankful for a hope that is alive. Thank you,Jesus!

Wishing all who celebrate a deeply meaningful Easter. May His resurrection remind you that new life, new strength and new beginnings are always possible.

With love,�Dr Maree 🤍

Jaw tension? Botulinum toxin can help.💉
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄
If you struggle with jaw clenching, grinding, or tension headaches, botulinum toxin to the masseter muscles can offer real, measurable relief. 🙌🏽

By gently relaxing the overactive jaw muscles, botulinum toxin can help:�💉Reduce teeth grinding (bruxism)�💉Ease tension headaches and facial pain�💉Prevent enamel wear and dental damage�💉Slim the jawline for a softer facial contour (a bonus for some patients)�💉Protect the TMJ joint from long-term strain�💉Improve sleep quality, especially if nighttime clenching is severe
Most patients notice relief within 7-14 days, with results lasting 3-4 months.

A small treatment that can make a big difference to comfort, confidence and day-to-day quality of life. 🙌🏽

Perimenopause: The Phase Nobody Talks About 💕
——
Most women think menopause starts when their periods stop.
That’s not actually true.🙌🏽

Perimenopause can begin 10 years before menopause.
During this time hormones fluctuate wildly.

Common symptoms include:
✔️Anxiety�✔️Brain fog�✔️Sleep disturbances�✔️Weight changes�✔️Heavy or irregular periods�✔️Mood changes�✔️Migraines�✔️Joint pain

Many women are told:
“Your blood tests are normal.”
But perimenopause is a clinical diagnosis.

Hormone levels fluctuate daily and blood tests often miss it.🙌🏽
�If you feel like your body has changed but nobody can explain why, perimenopause may be the reason.

I work closely with Dr. Nicole Jaff to help women feel themselves again during this weird, wild and wonderful (arguably) time of their lives.💞

The problem with one-size-fits-all medicine 💞
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

Standardised guidelines are essential in medicine, but patients are not standard.

Two individuals can present with the same symptoms, yet have entirely different underlying causes, lifestyles, stressors and physiological responses.

This is where one-size-fits-all approaches begin to fall short.

Effective medicine requires context. It considers not only the diagnosis, but the person, their environment, habits, history and goals.

Every day, I strive to move beyond protocols alone, toward care that is thoughtful, precise and truly patient-specific.

I’m here for you & your personal
requirements 💕
