Non-Surgical Treatments

By Dr Edwin Anthony, Lead Clinician, Contoura Medical · Treatments delivered by Nurse Rashmi Mehta · Last updated 4 October 2026

Orovenza is the nurse-led non-surgical aesthetics division of Contoura Medical, based at Langham Hospital in Marylebone, London. Treatments are delivered by Nurse Rashmi Mehta, with medical oversight and prescribing from Dr Edwin Anthony, and a route to surgical care when needed.

What Orovenza is

Orovenza offers injectables, skin treatments, energy devices and lasers for adults who want to look fresher without surgery. It sits inside Contoura Medical, a surgical practice known for VASER liposuction, lipoedema surgery, gynaecomastia correction and QuantumRF skin tightening. That means your nurse works alongside a surgical team rather than on her own.

The practical benefit is honesty about limits. Some concerns, such as heavy skin laxity or significant fat, respond far better to surgery than to any injection or device. When that is the case, we say so and can refer you to the surgical team at Contoura Medical for an opinion.

Why choosing a registered practitioner matters

Non-surgical aesthetics in the UK is still lightly regulated. Anyone can currently buy some products and inject them, which is why checking who treats you is so important.

  • Save Face, a government-approved register, received more than 3,000 reports of complications and adverse outcomes in 2023, a 35% rise on 2020, with dermal fillers making up almost 70% of complaints, as reported in a House of Commons debate in September 2025.
  • The government's 2023 consultation on licensing non-surgical procedures drew almost 12,000 responses, and in August 2025 it announced plans for a local authority licensing scheme for injectables and restrictions on the highest-risk procedures.
  • The NHS advises checking that practitioners are on an accredited register such as the JCCP or Save Face, and asking who prescribes and who administers any prescription medicine.

How consultations work

Every treatment starts with a consultation. It is a proper medical assessment, not a sales conversation, and you are never expected to book treatment on the day.

  1. Your goals. We ask what bothers you, in your words, and what you would like to change.
  2. History and examination. Medical history, medicines, allergies, previous treatments and a close look at your skin or scalp.
  3. Options. We explain which treatments could help, what each involves, the realistic result and the risks, including the option to do nothing.
  4. Prescriber assessment. For prescription-only treatments, Dr Edwin Anthony is involved before anything is prescribed.
  5. Time to think. You go away with a written plan and a clear idea of cost.
  6. Aftercare. After treatment you have written instructions, a review where appropriate and a number to call.

Choosing a treatment by concern

Most people arrive with a concern rather than a treatment name. The guide below groups our treatments by what they are usually used for. Many concerns overlap, and a plan often combines two approaches over several months.

ConcernTreatments to considerWhat they do
Lines and wrinklesAnti-wrinkle Injections, Medical Anti-wrinkle InjectionsRelax the muscles that crease the skin; the medical version is for functional concerns assessed at consultation
Volume and structureLip Filler, Facial Volumising with Radiesse with NCTFRestore or define shape in the lips, cheeks, jawline and temples
Skin quality and hydrationProfhilo, PolynucleotidesImprove hydration, firmness and fine crepey texture
Laxity and tighteningNon-Surgical Skin Tightening, Morpheus8 Scale & Burst, XerfUse radiofrequency energy to encourage collagen and firm mild to moderate laxity
PigmentationPigmentation Treatment, Picosecond Laser, Chemical PeelsTarget sun spots, uneven tone and some types of melasma
Texture and scarringAcne Scar Treatment, Microneedling, CO2 Laser ResurfacingSmooth scars, enlarged pores and rough texture
Hair thinningHair Loss InjectablesT Lab PRP to support thinning hair once the cause has been checked

When non-surgical is not enough

We would rather tell you a treatment will disappoint than sell it to you. Loose skin after weight loss, a heavy jowl, stubborn fat or lipoedema are examples where surgery may be the realistic answer.

  • We explain the likely ceiling of any non-surgical result
  • We can arrange a surgical opinion within Contoura Medical
  • Non-surgical and surgical care can be planned together, for example skin quality work before or after a procedure

Frequently asked questions

Who will treat me at Orovenza?

Nurse Rashmi Mehta, the lead aesthetic nurse, carries out your consultation and treatment. Where a prescription-only medicine is involved, Dr Edwin Anthony, Lead Clinician at Contoura Medical, is the prescriber. You will always know who is prescribing and who is treating you before anything happens.

Do I need a consultation before treatment?

Yes, always. We need your medical history, an examination and a proper conversation about goals and risks before recommending anything. There is no obligation to book afterwards, and for some treatments we build in a gap so you have time to think.

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

Start with the concern, not the product. Use the table above as a rough guide, then let us assess you. Two people with similar lines may need quite different plans depending on skin thickness, age, lifestyle and what has been done before.

Where is Orovenza based?

Orovenza operates within Contoura Medical at Langham Hospital, 77 Hallam Street, Marylebone, London W1W 5HB. The hospital setting means treatments take place in clinical rooms with medical support available, which matters most on the rare occasions when something unexpected happens.

Can you refer me for surgery?

Yes. Because Orovenza is part of Contoura Medical, we can arrange a surgical consultation if non-surgical options are unlikely to give you the result you want. Common examples include marked skin laxity, stubborn fat and lipoedema, where surgery may be more effective.

Are your treatments suitable for men?

Yes. We treat men as well as women, and common requests from men include anti-wrinkle injections, skin tightening and help with thinning hair. Facial anatomy and skin differ between men and women, so doses, placement and treatment plans are adjusted to keep results looking natural.

How do I check that a practitioner is registered?

Nurses can be checked on the Nursing and Midwifery Council register and doctors on the General Medical Council register, both free online. You can also look for accredited registers such as the JCCP or Save Face. Our About Orovenza page links to the official search tools.

Can I combine treatments?

Often, yes. Many good results come from pairing a treatment for structure with one for skin quality. We usually space treatments out rather than doing everything at once, so each can settle and we can judge what is actually working.

What happens if I have a problem after treatment?

Call us straight away on 020 3890 1911. You receive written aftercare advice after every treatment, and we arrange a review if anything concerns you. Having doctor oversight within the practice means medical input is available if a complication needs managing.

Do you treat anyone under 18?

No. All Orovenza treatments are for adults aged 18 and over. We may ask for identification if age is unclear. This reflects good practice and the direction of UK regulation, which is tightening protections for young people seeking cosmetic procedures.
