Medical aesthetics is a growing trend that focuses on improving cosmetic appearance through the treatment of various conditions. Dr Sindi speaks with Dr Fatima Bhabha, owner of the female only run practice, Beauty & Curves. Dr Bhabha specialises in treating African and Asian skin types, however that doesn't mean she doesn't know a thing or two about Caucasian skin.
