Dr Corcoran’s background

Dr Corcoran qualified in dentistry from the University of London and, while working in oral and maxillofacial surgery, was awarded the Royal College of Surgeons Fellowship in Dental Surgery. He then returned to university to study medicine, and after graduating continued post-graduate study, achieving Fellowship in Surgery and Fellowship in Anaesthesia.

He has spent over 30 years in the NHS, the last 14 as a Consultant Anaesthetist within a large NHS teaching hospital, 10 of those years simultaneously serving as Clinical Director, responsible for clinical standards and the delivery of high-quality care across departments.

In aesthetic medicine, Dr Corcoran was awarded a Distinction in the Postgraduate Diploma in Cosmetic Medicine and subsequently completed a Master of Science degree at the University of South Wales, receiving a Merit for his thesis on ultrasound in aesthetic medicine.

His primary clinical interest lies in treatments that stimulate the body’s own regenerative response: NeoGen plasma, PRP, polynucleotides, HIFU and Endolift laser. Combined with smoothing injectables and dermal fillers where appropriate, these approaches produce natural-looking results that genuinely last.

How we work

The way we do things here

A medical doctor running an aesthetics clinic means a different set of non-negotiables. These are ours.

01
Doctor-delivered, always
Every treatment is carried out by Dr Corcoran personally. Not a nurse, not a therapist. The doctor you consult is the doctor who treats you.
02
Clinically validated technology only
We invest in devices backed by peer-reviewed evidence and proper clinical trials, never replicas or grey-market imports.
03
Honest before anything else
If a treatment isn’t right for your concern, we’ll say so. We never oversell, and never treat just to fill an appointment.
04
Proper clinical records
Your history, photographs and treatment notes are stored properly and securely, the way a medical practice should.
05
Fully registered and insured
Dr Corcoran is GMC registered, holds full medical indemnity insurance, and is qualified for every treatment offered. Non-negotiable.
06
Warm, not clinical
Visiting us should feel like speaking to someone you trust completely. Someone who listens, who is straight with you, and genuinely cares.
