The CÉ Team

Nicole McDonald BN NZRN

CLINIC OWNER/ NURSE THERAPIST

 

Hi Im Nicole, one of the Registered Nurse Injector’s and Owner of Clinique Elan.  

 

I started my nursing career in Christchurch in 2016, working in a private hospital specialising in post-operative surgical care. From there I went to work for a Dermatologist and Cosmetic Surgeon, where I specialised in cosmetic surgery, dermatology and appearance medicine. 

During those years I was fortunate enough to travel throughout New Zealand and Australia for training both in appearance medicine and dermatology, and have consequently developed a vast knowledge and understanding of both dermal fillers and botulinum treatments as well as skin rejuvenation and the understanding of the ageing face.  

I am a member of the CANNZ Committee which is a governing body of medical professionals within the cosmetic industry that help to educate and support others in the industry. Clinique Elan’s nurses are all Accredited Society Members.  

Clinique Elan has always been well known for its experience, outstanding service and impeccable results, which is exactly how I intend on running CE moving forward. We are so fortunate to have such a lovely team that all endeavour to ensure that you are all well looked after throughout your whole experience.
