Meet your practitioner

From plastic surgery nursing to leading aesthetics.

Hello, and welcome. I'm Melody Steel, a Nurse Prescriber.

I qualified in 1999 and worked at the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery unit of St James's Hospital, where I learned the disciplines that still shape my work today: anatomy, physiology, safety, and precision.

In 2007 I established my own aesthetics practice — a fully qualified Nurse Prescriber bringing the discipline of the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery unit at St James's Hospital into a private setting. The setting changed; the standards did not.
