Her passion for aesthetic medicine stems from the ability to help patients achieve their desired natural outcomes using a variety of treatments.
The first consultation is a collaborative discussion, focusing on the patient’s desired changes alongside her professional assessment of the most suitable treatments to achieve these goals. Expectations are thoroughly explored, with patient examples provided, as well as a detailed discussion of the risks and benefits associated with each proposed treatment.
Once the patient is fully informed, a personalised treatment plan is formulated, marking the beginning of their journey towards their desired results. A holistic approach to patient care is central to her practice, ensuring that each individual’s concerns remain at the heart of the treatment plan.
With extensive experience in treating highly anxious patients, she believes that, through empathy and patience, significant progress can be achieved.
As well as her clinical work, she has a track record of providing high-quality educational content on her YouTube channel aimed at educating patients: with over 100K views, her videos demonstrate her ability to connect with patients and allay their anxieties about upcoming procedures.
Dr Shirafkan actively engages with her local community, providing oral health education in primary schools and nurseries, and supporting charitable projects.
Volunteering in Tanzania for the charity Bridge2Aid in the past, she has helped provide essential dental care to the local communities, as well as teaching healthcare professionals basic emergency dentistry.
She is also the co-founder of the Berending clinic in The Gambia. This is a non-profit organisation, which has raised thousands of pounds from UK based donors to aid the running of a small rural clinic which serves a population of over 4000 people and receives no state funding. The donations for this clinic help locals receive essential day to day health access, medication and maternity help.
