Wellface Cobham: Our New Flagship Clinic Is Almost Ready

There is a particular kind of excitement that comes with watching an empty space turn into something real. As our founder, I have been on site in Cobham as the building work moves along, and the honest truth is that it has been wonderfully chaotic. Builders in one room, plumbers in another, electricians running cables, the internet team, the air conditioning fitters, even a sound engineer. Everyone has a job to do, and every one of those jobs is about making the finished clinic feel calm, considered and quietly luxurious for the people who will sit in the treatment chairs.

Cobham is going to be our flagship branch, and that word matters to us. A flagship is not simply a bigger address. It is the place where we bring together the best of what Wellface does, from the technology in the treatment rooms to the way you are greeted at reception. If you already know us from Esher or Wimbledon, you will recognise the same doctor-led approach. What is new is the scale of the ambition behind the doors in Cobham.

The headline most people have been waiting for is simple. The diary is open. From the 22nd of April you can book online, and I will be seeing patients in Cobham on Thursdays and Fridays. Alongside me, a group of new doctors will be joining the team so that appointments are easier to find and the standard of care stays exactly where it should be. Here is what that means for you, and what you can expect when you walk in.

What is happening behind the scenes in Cobham

Fitting out a medical aesthetics clinic is not the same as decorating a shop. Every detail has to serve two purposes at once. It has to feel warm and reassuring, and it has to meet the standards expected of a doctor-led clinic where injectable treatments, lasers and energy-based devices are used every day.

That is why there are so many different trades on site at the moment. The building work shapes the treatment rooms and the flow of the space. The plumbing and electrical work underpins everything from hand hygiene to the power-hungry laser platforms. The air conditioning keeps rooms at a comfortable, controlled temperature, which genuinely matters when you are lying still for a facial or a longer treatment. Even the connectivity and the sound have been thought about, because the small things add up to how a visit feels.

I have been clear about the reason for all this effort. The goal is to bring in the best technology and the best experience possible, and to do it properly rather than quickly. When you invest in your skin, you want to know the clinic behind the treatment has taken the same care with its own foundations.

The treatments you will find at Wellface Cobham

Wellface is a doctor-led aesthetics clinic, and the range of treatments on offer reflects the fact that no two faces, and no two goals, are the same. Some people come in for a single, specific concern. Others want a longer-term plan for their skin. The Cobham clinic is being built to handle both.

On the injectable side, that includes anti-wrinkle treatments and dermal fillers, along with regenerative options that have become some of the most talked-about treatments in the field. Profhilo, polynucleotides and skin boosters all work with your own skin rather than simply filling or freezing, and they suit people who want a fresher, healthier look without an obvious change to their features.

For skin quality and texture, the clinic offers energy-based and resurfacing options such as Morpheus8, BBL Hero, MOXI and CO2 laser resurfacing with the Secret Pro platform. There are gentler, no-downtime facials too, including Hydrafacial and Aquagold, as well as PRP, microneedling and medical-grade skin peels. For stubborn pockets of fat under the chin or in small areas, Aqualyx is also part of the menu. It is a broad list, and part of the value of a consultation is having a doctor help you work out which of these actually suits your skin and your priorities.

Regenerative skincare, explained simply

A quick word on the treatments that come up most often, because the names can be confusing. Profhilo is a form of stabilised hyaluronic acid that spreads through the skin to hydrate it from within and stimulate collagen and elastin, which is why it tends to leave skin looking bouncier rather than fuller. Polynucleotides are derived from purified DNA fragments and work as a kind of repair signal, improving skin quality and calming inflammation over a course of sessions. Skin boosters sit in a similar space, delivering hydration and nutrients into the skin. None of these are about changing your shape. They are about improving the canvas.

Why doctor-led care makes a difference

There is no shortage of places to have an aesthetic treatment these days, so it is worth being clear about what sets a doctor-led clinic apart. When your practitioner is a doctor, the conversation starts with your health and your anatomy, not with a price list. That means honest advice about whether a treatment is right for you, a proper understanding of what lies beneath the skin, and the training to manage the rare occasions when something does not go to plan.

I founded Wellface on exactly that principle. The team I have built around me, including Dr Yosra Albeyatti, Dr Amina Albeyatti, Dr Bianca Coveva, Dr Olivia McCormack and Dr Hannah Sunley, shares the same approach. As the Cobham clinic opens, new doctors are joining that team so that patients can be seen without long waits while keeping the standard consistent across every branch.

It also means you are not pushed towards the most expensive option in the room. Sometimes the right answer is a course of a regenerative treatment. Sometimes it is a series of facials and a better skincare routine at home. Occasionally it is doing nothing at all for now. A good doctor will tell you which.

What to expect at your first appointment

If Cobham is your first visit to Wellface, the first appointment is a consultation as much as anything else. It is a chance to sit down, talk through what is bothering you or what you would like to improve, and get a clear, unhurried assessment of your skin.

Expect questions about your medical history, any previous treatments and your day-to-day skincare. Expect the doctor to look closely at your skin in good light and to be frank about what different treatments can and cannot do. If a treatment is suitable and you are happy to proceed, some options can be carried out on the same day, while others are better planned as a course over several weeks. There is never any pressure to decide on the spot.

How to book

From the 22nd of April, the Cobham diary is open for booking online at the Wellface website. I will be consulting and treating in Cobham on Thursdays and Fridays, with the new doctors joining the rota to widen the availability. If you prefer to speak to someone, the clinic can be reached by phone on 01372 826649. Booking early tends to be sensible for the first few weeks, as opening dates are always the busiest.

A little about aftercare and downtime

One question that comes up again and again is how much downtime to expect, so it helps to set expectations before you book. The answer depends entirely on the treatment. A Hydrafacial or a skin booster usually leaves you looking well the same day, and most people go straight back to work or out to meet friends. Injectable treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections or Profhilo can leave small, temporary marks or a little swelling that settles within a day or two.

The more intensive resurfacing treatments, such as CO2 laser or Morpheus8, ask a bit more of you. There is typically a period of redness and, with laser, some flaking as the skin renews itself. Your doctor will talk you through exactly what to expect and when to schedule the treatment around your diary. General good sense applies across the board: protect your skin from strong sun, keep it clean and hydrated, and follow the specific advice you are given rather than improvising. Medical-grade skincare, which the clinic can prescribe, often makes a real difference to how well and how quickly results settle.

Common questions about the Cobham clinic

When can I book an appointment in Cobham?

The diary opens on the 22nd of April. From that date you can book online through the Wellface website, or call the clinic on 01372 826649 to arrange a visit.

Which days am I at the Cobham clinic?

I will be seeing patients in Cobham on Thursdays and Fridays. New doctors are also joining the Cobham team, which means more days and more appointment slots as the clinic settles in.

Can I still be seen at Esher or Wimbledon?

Yes. Cobham is our new flagship branch, but Wellface continues to welcome patients at Esher and Wimbledon too. If one location or a particular day suits you better, the team can help you find an appointment that works.

Do I need to know which treatment I want before I book?

Not at all. If you are unsure, book a consultation and let the doctor guide you. Many patients arrive with a concern rather than a specific treatment in mind, and part of the doctor's job is to recommend the approach that genuinely suits your skin and your goals.

Is there parking and easy access at the Cobham clinic?

Cobham is a well-connected part of Surrey and the clinic has been chosen and fitted out with patient comfort in mind. If you have specific access needs or questions about getting to us, the reception team is happy to help when you call.

Come and see the new clinic for yourself

We have put a great deal of care into the Cobham build, and I genuinely mean it when I say I cannot wait to hear what you think. The best way to experience a clinic is to sit in it, meet the doctor and talk honestly about your skin.

When the diary opens on the 22nd of April, you can book your consultation with me in Cobham online or by calling 01372 826649. And if Esher or Wimbledon is closer or easier for you, those doors are open too. Whichever branch you choose, you will be looked after by doctors who take your skin, and your trust, seriously.
