Looking for the best injectables doctor? Compare all doctors at Injectablesbooking.co.uk.

More and more people are considering injectables like Botox and fillers to subtly enhance their appearance. But how do you know if a practitioner is reliable and experienced? An injectables doctor plays a crucial role in achieving natural and safe results. In this article, you'll discover everything about injectables doctors, what to look for when choosing a practitioner, and how to find the best doctor through Injectablesbooking.co.uk.

What is an injectables doctor?

An injectables doctor is a medical professional specializing in cosmetic treatments using injectables, such as botulinum toxin (Botox) and fillers. These doctors help clients reduce wrinkles, restore lost volume, and rejuvenate the skin. The most common treatments include:

  • Botox: reduces muscle activity and softens wrinkles such as frown lines, crow's feet and forehead lines.

  • Fillers: fill in lines, restore facial volume and improve contours such as cheekbones and lips.

  • Profhilo and skin boosters: hydrate the skin and stimulate natural collagen production for a fresh appearance.

  • Lip fillers: improve the shape and volume of the lips for a natural and harmonious appearance.

Injectables doctor: how to choose the best practitioner

What should you pay attention to when choosing an injectables doctor?

Choosing an experienced and qualified physician is essential for safe and successful treatment. Consider the following criteria:

1. GMC registration and training

An injectables doctor must be GMC-registered. This means the doctor has completed accredited medical training and is authorized to perform medical treatments. A specialization in cosmetic medicine is also a plus.

2. Experience and specialization

Choose a doctor with extensive experience with injectables and a focus on cosmetic treatments. The more treatments a doctor performs, the better their technique and ability to prevent complications.

3. Reviews and ratings

Check out the reviews on Injectablesbooking.co.uk and Google. Experiences from other clients provide a good impression of the expertise, customer service, and treatment results.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Dr. Darren McKeown’s clinic! From the moment I walked in, the team made me feel so welcome and at ease— all ladies on reception are so polite, warm and professional.
Dr. Darren is incredibly knowledgeable, and simply a genius and wizard! Apprehensive to start on injectables for a couple of years, Dr. Darren reassured me and absolutely delivered! The results are natural and subtle, just what I wanted. No downtime, and I’m already seeing a confidence boost!
The clinic on Bath Street is stunning too (just wait till you see the Christmas trees and decorations!). If you’re on the fence, just go—best decision I ever made. Highly recommend to anyone in Glasgow looking for top-tier aesthetic care. Blessed and grateful to have Darren here in Glasgow! Customer for life!
I since returned for a laser consultation with Dr Rhona and I cannot stress enough how absolutely adorable, knowledgeable and kind she was! I left the clinic just feeling better for meeting and speaking with her! Can’t wait to start my laser sessions in January! Thank you, Dr. McKeown and team! Truly the crème de la crème’. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and Best wishes for 2026. Show less »

I’ve been coming to So aesthetics now for years and always have great treatments and really lovely care at this professional salon. I’ve had treatments from hydra facials which are always a treat to injectables. Nicola is great and the fact she’s a nurse reassures me. Helen is always a delight and very helpful when looking for products.
Highly recommend

I was nervous about injectables and seeing a new practitioner. Dr Bawa put me at ease during the entire consultation process, and helped give my face a contour and lift effect with dermal filler. I look refreshed and natural. This treatment has definitely helped my self esteem and outlook on aesthetics treatments going forward. Highly recommended.

I had Botox on my forehead and frown lines, along with polynucleotides under my eyes at Battersea & Nine Elms Aesthetic Clinic inside Battersea Power Station and the results are incredible! Everything looks so smooth and natural, exactly what I wanted.

My forehead lines have softened without looking frozen, the frown lines I’ve always hated are finally gone, and the under-eye area looks brighter and fresher. Since having the treatment, people keep commenting on how great and well-rested I look, without having any idea I’ve had anything done.

The clinic is also perfectly situated; I was able to shop around Battersea Power Station straight after my appointment, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

The space feels luxurious, the doctor explained everything clearly, and the entire process was calm and professional. I won’t go anywhere else in Battersea, Nine Elms, or Chelsea for injectables now. Highly recommend! Show less »

A long-overdue review for the incredible Jane at Skin to Love.
Jane has been looking after my skin for years and she is truly exceptional at what she does. Her knowledge, professionalism and the amount of genuinely valuable advice she gives — not just about skincare but about lifestyle and overall skin health — is on another level.

I’ve learned so much from her about managing rosacea from the inside out, and the combination of Byonic treatments and injectables she recommended has transformed my skin. The results have been amazing.

From the warm, welcoming reception team to every member of staff, the service is consistently outstanding — but Jane is in a league of her own.

Couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Dr Nick is a doctor who understands the importance of confidence and healthy skin as part of wellbeing. He takes the time to get to know you, and understands exactly how to get the results you want, whilst being sensitive to what level of intervention is comfortable for you as an individual. He is expert in injectables and downtime is minimal. He uses the best possible products and the latest knowledge to help get the best out of your individual skin type. He has rid me of persistent adult acne (where every product and aesthetician had failed before) and kept my skin glowing and smooth. He has enhanced my lips very subtly and I love it! I often receive compliments about my skin - something that never would have happened before. Nick is a kind and positive person who always makes you feel special and gives you a huge amount time at each appointment. I am delighted with Nick and would not hesitate to recommend him.

4. Safety and hygiene

A professional doctor works in a hygienic clinic with high-quality products. Check whether the doctor uses top brands such as Botox®, Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Profhilo.

5. Before and after photos

Ask to see previous treatment results. An experienced doctor can show examples of clients with a similar facial structure and wishes.

6. Personal consultation

A good consultation is essential. The doctor listens to your wishes, discusses the possibilities, and sets realistic expectations. Avoid doctors who want to carry out a treatment immediately without a proper conversation.

Who is not authorized?

Beauticians, masseurs, skin therapists, physiotherapists, and all other non-doctors are not authorized to perform injectables treatments. Sometimes they try to bypass this by using a filler gun/pistol or meso gun/pistol to inject fillers under high pressure. However, this is doomed to fail. The risk of complications is high. An injectables treatment has a cosmetic purpose. With a complication, you often end up looking less attractive, which is not the goal. Resolving a complication can take some time. It is also uncertain whether your appearance will fully recover 100% after a complication.

Which specialists are authorized?

All doctors in the CGM register are authorized to perform injectables treatments. CGM-registered Physician Assistants (PA) and BCGM-registered Nurse Practitioners are also authorized under certain conditions to perform injectables treatments.

Which doctors are competent?

Next, you can ask yourself which doctors are competent. Even though someone is a doctor, that does not mean they are skilled with injectables. It is generally recognized that doctors who hold the protected titles Cosmetic Doctor CMG, Plastic Surgeon, or Dermatologist regularly work with injectables treatments. These doctors are members of the professional associations BCAM, BAPRAS, or BAD. With these doctors, you can assume they have a high level of expertise.

Which doctors are skilled?

When a doctor performs cosmetic injectables treatments on a daily basis, you can assume they have developed a certain level of skill. On Injectablesbooking.co.uk, you can compare all doctors. Do they hold the title Cosmetic Doctor CMG, Plastic Surgeon, or Dermatologist? Are they members of the BCAM, BAPRAS, or BAD? How long has the CGM-registered specialist been performing injectables treatments daily?
