ACHIEVEMENTS & COMPETENCIES

• Board certified Senior Plastic Surgeon since 1996.

• Delivered training services including online audio-visual lectures and hands-on tutorials in a clinical setting (Aesthetica Clinic, Institute of Medical Aesthetics (IMA), Zo Skin Centre, Dubai) to introduce non-invasive aesthetic procedures to medical practitioners.

Describing himself as an innate nerd, Libyan-born Dr El Muntasar arrived at St Andrews University in Scotland at just 16 – the youngest ever medical student on record there and the only Arab international doctor on his course. Completing his BSC in medical sciences before moving to Manchester where he gained his medical degree, he then travelled south to London’s UCL, where he ticked off his ‘medical leadership’ master’s. His innate desire for continued learning has not waned and by the time he opened his first aesthetics clinic in 2018 aged just 26, he had completed twelve courses in aesthetics as opposed to just one – the current requirement for practice.

Initially set on being a plastic surgeon, it was only after working in the field that he decided he did not like the expectations that came with the procedures, and it was only when there were whisperings of ‘aesthetics’ did he find his medical niche. “Aesthetics wasn’t mentioned in med school or education. Plastics fixates on an issue and there are lots of consultations and back and forth and there can be numerous procedures. With injectables, you get instant results. I’m a sucker for science, so I look at everything from the safety data to complication rates and spend weeks sampling everything – how things are injected/the swelling/the long-term results. I have a high level of trust with my patients, and they know everything has been vetted by me. You won’t find things like B12 injections or more ‘wellness’ options on my menu. I’m with science,” says Dr Ahmed.
