5 of 5 with Dr Savan Shah

Are you a doctor or dentist? Why did you follow this path? 

I am a dentist based out of Rickmansworth and Hertfordshire. I found myself entering this field as I had some family members that were dentists who clearly made some good recommendations! I love my job!

Why did you get into facial aesthetics?

I mainly carry out cosmetic dentistry. I realised quickly that just treating people’s teeth alone was not enough. Facial driven treatment planning was key – anti ageing and a nice bright white smile go hand in hand!

What would you say to someone thinking about getting Botox® for the first time? 

I’d say, start slowly. Treat only the bits that concern you first in a natural manner. Soften things. You’re in safe hands as the team at UNNDOO are very well trained to the highest levels of safety and delivering natural results.

Where would you like to see the industry go?

Two words: more regulation. I believe the key thing is well regulated aesthetics. Safety is paramount: if we as an industry can deliver efficient safe treatment, then the people who will benefit the most, will be our patients.

When you’re not doing Botox® would you do? 

Aside from being a dentist, I am a keen sportsman. Football is one of my biggest passions: playing 5 aside and watching my beloved Arsenal 🙂
