Verity Nowlan

Aesthetic Nurse Prescriber & Dermatology Specialist

Verity joined Dr Shotter’s team as an Aesthetic Nurse Prescriber and Dermatology Specialist to help meet the growing demand for some of our most popular treatments.

Verity originally trained as a Beauty Therapist, gaining The CIDESCO Certificate, the world’s most prestigious qualification for aesthetics, and spent the first few years of her working life offering beauty treatments in boutique spas in London. During this time, Verity developed a particular interest in Advanced Aesthetics and decided to retrain as a nurse to explore her passion further. After completing her Nurse Diploma, Verity went straight into aesthetics and completed extensive courses to build her skill set and ensure patient safety. She has since worked alongside many award-winning practitioners in one of the best-regarded clinics on Harley Street.

Following the completion of her Diploma and aesthetics training, Verity also successfully completed her Nurse Independent Prescriber, a qualification held by approximately just 2% of British Nurses, enabling her to prescribe the medications required within aesthetic medicine.

Feeling as though something was still missing from her impressive skill set, and always keen to learn more, Verity then decided to gain her Masters in Clinical Dermatology at Kings College London. This decision has enabled Verity to take a medical approach to skin health.

Verity now combines aesthetics with her dermatology skills, supporting patients with a host of different skin conditions including acne, eczema, rosacea, psoriasis, and hyperhidrosis. In addition to her aesthetic work, Verity also works as a Band 7 Dermatology Clinical Nurse Specialist within the NHS.

Dr Sophie Shotter handpicked Verity to join her flourishing team and help grow her treatment offering. Working closely alongside Dr Sophie, Verity provides a wide range of treatments, including anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, Profhilo, Microsclerotherapy, HydraFacial and chemical peels, and the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions such as acne, rosacea, and Hyperhidrosis.

Verity takes a 360° medical and holistic approach to the skin – she is passionate about making the skin look beautiful by treating conditions on the surface and enhancing and beautifying the features with injectable treatments for a subtle, natural result. Her ethos is that all aesthetic treatments start with the skin. She enjoys working with her patients to build a targeted skincare regime consisting of good-quality, medical-grade skincare to achieve a beautiful, radiant complexion before enhancing their features with injectables.

The most rewarding part of Verity’s role is witnessing the patient transformation over time and building relationships with her patients. She enjoys working closely with people to help them understand how to optimise their skin health and feel the best version of themselves. She finds it incredibly rewarding to be able to recommend the very best products and treatments and deliver results that not only meet a patient’s expectations, but exceed them – from teenagers with acne, to post-menopausal women struggling with rosacea, wrinkles, or loss of elasticity in the skin.

Outside of work, Verity is kept very busy with her toddler, Enya and her whippet, Beryl. She enjoys going on long walks, practising meditation and has recently trained in Reiki, a hobby of hers.
