Shanur – Founder & Clinical Director

Leicester MediSpa’s founder and clinical director Shanur is dedicated to providing the safest and most effective aesthetic and wellness treatments available. Her journey into healthcare began in optometry, but her longstanding passion for skin health led her to completing a Master’s degree in Nursing from the University of Nottingham, with a focus on dermatology. She is also a qualified Independent Nurse Prescriber, allowing her to safely assess, diagnose, and prescribe treatments for her patients with clinical autonomy.

Having struggled with problematic skin herself while growing up, Shanur understands firsthand the emotional and physical toll it can take. She recalls experimenting with homemade remedies in her teenage years—an early sign of the passion that would later define her career. This personal experience has shaped her belief that healthy, radiant skin should be accessible to everyone. For Shanur, skin health is not just about appearance—it’s about confidence, self-worth, and overall wellbeing. Her approach goes beyond surface-level treatments. “It’s not just about injecting a face—there’s a person behind that face with a story, a life, and individual needs,” she says. Her philosophy centres around bespoke care, tailored precisely to each patient’s unique skin concerns, lifestyle, and goals.

Shanur’s clinical background includes roles in private hospitals, where she has cared for surgical patients and assisted with elective surgical procedures. She has also held the position of specialist dermatology nurse, performing nurse led minor skin surgery procedures and supporting patients with chronic skin conditions.

Shanur has completed extensive training in advanced aesthetic practice and is currently working towards her Level 7 Diploma in Aesthetic Injectable Therapies – the highest standard of training in the UK for medical aesthetics. Shanur continues to enhance her knowledge by training alongside some of the leading industry experts in aesthetic medicine, ensuring that her patients receive the most up-to-date, evidence-based care. Outside of running Leicester MediSpa, Shanur enjoys spending time with her husband and six-year-old German Shepherd, Errol. The family are an active part of the Oadby community and are honoured to now be providing aesthetics and wellness care to those in the area and beyond.
