WELCOME TO
SLA MEDICAL CLINIC
SLA Medical was founded in 2016 by Nurse SarahLouise, starting as a humble clinic in a garden outhouse. What began as a passion project has since blossomed into a globally recognised brand, with physical and satellite locations spanning the world. Today, SLA Medical is a trusted name in the medical aesthetics industry, employing a dedicated team of professionals across the globe.
Our ambition is bold: to become one of the most respected and sought-after medical aesthetics brands in the industry. At the heart of our success is “The SLA Way,” a unique approach that empowers our practitioners to deliver natural yet transformative results. By following a meticulous process and honouring the geometry of beauty, we enhance and restore your natural features; never altering or augmenting.
At SLA Medical, we believe in celebrating individuality. Our mission is to help you look and feel like the best version of yourself, with results that are as authentic as they are stunning.
At SLA Medical our PHILOSOPHY is rooted in treating every patient as an individual. We take the time to understand your unique needs, concerns, and aesthetic goals, crafting bespoke treatment plans that prioritise your overall wellbeing. Our holistic approach ensures that every result is natural, discreet, and powerful. Patient confidentiality is at the heart of everything we do, and we are committed to providing a safe, trusting environment where you can feel completely at ease.
SLA Medical was born from a VISION to seamlessly blend clinical excellence with unparalleled customer care. This vision guides every aspect of our practice, from the treatments we offer to the way we make you feel. We strive to create an experience where safety, expertise, and personalised attention come together, ensuring you feel valued and supported at every step of your aesthetic journey.
Our MISSION is simple yet profound; to empower our patients through education and transparency. We believe in providing clear, honest information about the benefits, risks, and side effects of every procedure. By doing so, we enable you to make informed, confident decisions that align with your goals. At SLA, we know that an educated patient is a satisfied patient, and your trust is our greatest reward.
At SLA Medical, our VALUES are the foundation of everything we do. We are passionate about creating a welcoming, warm, and relaxing environment where you feel cared for from the moment you walk through our doors. It’s the small touches, the thoughtful details and personalised care that make the biggest difference. Your comfort, confidence, and satisfaction are what drive us every day.
“We are re-inventing The Art of Medical Aesthetics”

SarahLouise Aesthetics 1.0 – The beginning
2017 marked the beginning of something extraordinary; the birth ofSarahLouise Aesthetics. What started as a small, meticulously designed clinic in a garden outhouse quickly became the foundation of a brand that would redefine medical aesthetics. From the very beginning, SLA Medical was built on a vision of excellence, professionalism, and trust and it was no surprise this small humble beginning would be anything less.
2017 – SarahLouise Aesthetics HQ – The next chapter!
Fast forward into mid 2017 where the demand increased and I needed more space and more staff. I found myself being the receptionist, social media, graphic designer, content writer, accountant, injector and cleaner all in one! Although I knew I needed to delegate these roles on, I now thank myself for doing them all, as now I understand my business back to front! In September 2017 I viewed and secured the SLA HQ in Monton. I actually was devasted, as I missed out on a high street location that I had my heart set on. However, again this would eventuate to be one the most rewarding losses that could have happened. Little did I know, this location would become the home of our forever clinic; set off the main road and surrounded by gorgeous greenery that overlooks a beautiful church. We proudly opened the doors to SarahLouise Aesthetics HQ in November 2017.
SLA 1.0 – The rebrand!
The rebrand following the devastating COVID crisis! This had to be one of the most challenging years but equally carried the most opportunity for growth and innovation. For the first time I was forced to stay at home, decrease my workload be present with my children and become creative. I innovated; I developed new concepts, online shopping, virtual treatment plans, and studied the art of skin! and dec I began to separate the business from the conventional beauty aesthetics and aligned with a medical vision. This birthed the rebrand, restructure and refurbishment of SLA Medical – A strong, bold, clinical and sophisticated brand that represented my vision and my position in medical aesthetics.
SLA 2.0 – The expansion!
Mid 2022 I faced the most difficult challenges personally and in my career. I was changing, I was maturing, and I was growing. I realised I wanted more fulfillment, I wanted SLA to represent so much more and I craved to be surrounded by like minded people. This promoted a huge shift at SLA, a complete change of staffing, a new governance structure, an expansion, and most importantly a revised version of the business CORE VALUES. I wanted to reinstate everything I set out to achieve, I wanted growth for the company, structure and clear vision that imbedded into my staff and oozed from their personalities. This year was different for me in business, this was the year I would blend my personal and professional life and collaborated into business with my husband! We doubled our footprint, recruited specifically, and mapped out the business strategy for the next 5 years…. together!
The SLA brand now has a global presence, treats patients from all over the world, employs over 19 people online and in clinic, and provides superior patient care surrounding skin health and anti-ageing treatments.
Stay tuned as we dont sit still for long! What could be next????
SarahLouise Aesthetics 1.0 – The beginning
This year was a special year for SLA. It was the birthplace of Sarah Louise Aesthetics. A scary yet exciting time as I took the leap of faith from Hospital based employment in Cosmetics, Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics to opening my very own private medical aesthetic clinic. This was the year things got real! A small, cosy yet remarkably clinical building in the back garden was the new home for Sarah Louise Aesthetics. I designed it in a way that once patients stepped foot into the space, they completely forgot they were in the back of a residential property. The marketing and design concept purposefully intended a high-end professional image of the Sarah Louise brand! This is where I learned how important marketing yourself and your brand is from the very beginning. I always remembered when creating this space; Your image and brand is the absolute core of who you are, what you provide, and what you want to be remembered for.
