About Dr Christou
Dr. Joanna Christou | MBBS Lond BDS (Hons) Lond MJDF RCS
Dr. Christou has achieved the rare distinction of becoming a doubly qualified dentist and medical doctor. She has a special interest in facial musculature, gained through her years of experience in both fields.
Qualifications
Dr. Christou studied in oral and maxillofacial surgery at University College London Hospital, Guys’, Kings’ and St. Thomas’ School of Medicine and Dentistry, and Queen Mary, University of London, gaining degrees with license to practice in both medicine and dentistry. She added to her expertise at Harvard Dental School in Boston, MA and The New York University College of Dentistry.
It is her unique knowledge of the structure of the face, combined with her training in aesthetics, which has allowed Dr. Christou to create a signature ‘natural look’ preferred by her high flying clients, who need to impress and counter the stresses of working in a busy city environment in order to rise and remain at the top of their sectors.
As a result of her dual qualifications, Dr. Christou is a leading London clinician for both the Cerezen device, a new treatment for temporomandibular joint disorders and the associated symptoms of facial pain, tooth grinding and headaches, as well as Silhouette Soft, which allows a discrete and immediate non-surgical skin lift with results which get better over time.
Expertise
Because of her medical training Dr. Christou can also tackle complex facial revisions minimally invasively including non-surgical rhinoplasty (nose job), tear trough procedures, and treatments to rectify Bell’s Palsy.
Dr. Christou is keen to inspire others with her enthusiasm for facial aesthetics and non-surgical procedures. She offers a high level of personalised treatment and her excellent and discrete results speak volumes for her level of expertise, making her sought after throughout the City of London, and beyond.
“I have been seeing Dr. Joanna Christou for face fillers & Botox for many years. I needed someone I could trust & would understand my needs. Joanna is professional, kind & very knowledgeable. Although she is my face doctor I feel like I am meeting a friend when I see her. If you are thinking of having treatment on your face meet with Joanna. You will be glad you did.”
“Joanna’s expertise and understanding of facial structure are exceptional. I always feel in the safest hands, and I love that her approach is about enhancing my natural features without ever making me look overdone.”
