CosMedic Clinic Jaime Squires Appearance Medicine Nurse

My name is Jaime Squires. I am a Registered Nurse and Appearance Medicine Nurse, with over six years experience in Appearance Medicine, and fifteen years nursing experience, five of which were spent running Skin Institute Invercargill before opening my own clinic. I obtained my Bachelor of Nursing Degree through Southern Institute of Technology in 2001. I have oversight provided by Dr Henryk Poczwa, owner of Vein and Skin Clinic, and member of The New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Medicine.

CosMedic Clinic offers both Appearance Medicine and Skin Care treatments. Injectable treatments include muscle relaxant procedures using Botox and dermal fillers and lip fillers using Juvaderm. Skin treatments include medi skin treatments including peels, masks, and epi-dermal levelling or blading, and skin care products - Aspect Dr, Skin Medica, PCA, cosmedix and Colour science make-up. All clients are given a cosmetic consultation prior to procedures free of charge. I will soon be introducing the Dermafraq. This is a micro needling system that delivers serums into the skin based on your skin concerns and needs. Serums delivered include hyaluronic acid, rejuvenating serums with peptides, brightening serums and serums that target acne. This procedure is great for collagen induction, and has no downtime, so you can have the treatment and go straight back to work. More about this coming soon.

I regularly attend the annual New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Medicine conference, and have attended numerous other training sessions throughout my career in appearance medicine, with majority of my training being run by Skin Institute and Allergan. I have continued and will continue to attend training since opening my own clinic, as feel it is imperative in this industry to keep updated in the latest treatment guidelines for both best results, and safety of my clients. I completed my Appearance Medicine Certificate through Skin Institute with Excellence, and hold a level 5 Advanced Cardiac Life Support Certificate.

I am passionate about appearance medicine with particular emphasis on achieving a natural fresh look for my clients by enhancing what they already have. Clients can sometimes have misconceptions in relation to procedures in appearance medicine and this can easily be overcome by consultation and education. I believe that individual facial assessment and listening to my client’s needs is a crucial part to achieving the best possible results, and am a strong believer in maintenance through good skin care and follow up.
