MEET THE EXPERTS
The Aesthetic Medicine editorial board’s clinical expertise and diverse range of specialities help ensure the magazine meets the needs of the readers. In this issue, we have received guidance from the following members:
DR SHIRIN LAKHANI
Dr Shirin Lakhani is a GP and aesthetic practitioner, specialising in intimate health, sexual dysfunction, and menopause. A lack of NHS care for women has led Dr Lakhani to offer treatments for Lichen Sclerosus, vaginal atrophy and many more intimate health issues. She is a significant voice of authority within the intimate health space, speaking widely on HRT, the menopause, and incontinence.
TRACEY DENNISON
Tracey Dennison is the consultant nurse practitioner at East Riding Aesthetics and Wellness, a multi-award-winning clinic which specialises in restorative and regenerative medical aesthetic treatments to give natural-looking, confidence-boosting enhancements. Dennison has been nursing for over 30 years and was the Aesthetic Medicine Awards’ Nurse of the Year 2023.

DR MAYONI GOONERATNE
Dr Mayoni Gooneratne is the founder and medical director of Human Health and SkinFit.
