THE ADMIRE PROMISE
We want to focus on your health, beauty, and quality of life. Our mission is to provide you with extensive patient education and work closely with you to find solutions that fit your lifestyle. All cosmetic consultations with us are complimentary, and with no obligation. We will stay ahead of the current technology and will always advocate for patient safety. Choosing an aesthetic procedure is not about being vain; but is a service that can improve quality of life, psychological well-being, and that supports empowerment!
SAFETY MEASURES MATTER MOST AT ADMIRE MEDICAL AESTHETICS
We want the best for our patients, which means our patients trust us. Ultrasound is another obvious and visible step in the process of safety. Ultrasound imaging brings us to the next evolutionary step in aesthetic medical practice. No longer having to inject blindly means that we have the ability to identify and avoid larger blood vessels, reducing the risk of bruising and potential vascular compromise. Patients who attend our practice where we use ultrasound imaging routinely can be confident that their practitioner is using every tool in the box to ensure that they have an effective treatment. Using ultrasound meant that we can position our dermal filler exactly where we need it to be, meaning better aesthetic outcomes.
