01About Us
Silk Clinical Aesthetics is a cosmetic injectables and clinical skin treatments practice in Christchurch. Founded and led by registered nurse Shontelle Prasad, with a small team of specialists who deliver the rest of the work to the same standard.
02Our Story
Silk Clinical Aesthetics opened on a single belief: cosmetic treatments should be delivered by qualified healthcare professionals who take the time to understand you. Shontelle built the clinic so she could practice that way without compromise.
We are based in Christchurch Central. The clinic holds the only Volnewmer RF skin tightening device in the South Island, alongside the latest-generation Ultraformer MPT HIFU system. We invest in leading equipment because clients here deserve access to the same technologies available in major centres worldwide.
Cosmetic injectables at Silk are performed exclusively by registered nurses. Skin therapy and device sessions are delivered by experienced specialists who work alongside the cosmetic nurses, so every treatment fits a coherent plan rather than sitting in isolation.
03What sets us apart
01
Cosmetic injectables are performed by registered nurses with specialist aesthetic training. Your safety and results are backed by clinical expertise.
02
We invest in the latest, clinically proven technologies. From Volnewmer RF to Ultraformer MPT HIFU, our equipment is at the front of non-surgical aesthetics.
03
No two faces are the same. Every plan is tailored to your unique anatomy, goals, and lifestyle, because real results start with understanding you.
04Meet the Team
Small by design. Every person at Silk was chosen for the same two things: clinical skill and the judgement to use it well. You will see the same faces visit after visit, which is exactly how we like it, because good results come from knowing your face, your history, and your goals over time.
