Dr Kajal Babamiri in consultation at Medicex, Manchester
Every service below is consultant-led by Dr Kajal Babamiri

Dr Babamiri is a GP with a Specialist Interest (GPwSI) in dermatology — a recognised extended role requiring competence beyond general practice in diagnosing and managing skin disease. In practice, that means lesions are examined with dermoscopy rather than guessed at, inflammatory conditions are treated according to their actual pathology, and anything suspicious is escalated without delay.

Conditions commonly seen:

  • Skin lesion assessment — moles, keratoses, cysts, suspicious lesions and dermoscopic review
  • Acne and acne scarring, including treatment-resistant and adult-onset acne
  • Rosacea, perioral dermatitis and chronic facial redness
  • Eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis
  • Pigmentation disorders — melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, sun damage
  • Hair and scalp disorders — androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, seborrhoeic dermatitis
  • Nail disease, hidradenitis suppurativa, urticaria and chronic itch

Where a condition falls outside the scope of a GPwSI service — or where a lesion requires urgent specialist review — you will be told so directly and referred on. Nothing is retained in-house for the sake of retaining it.

  • Dermoscopy
  • Prescription therapy
  • Skin cancer vigilance
  • Long-term condition management
  • Onward referral

Aesthetic medicine practised as medicine. Every plan starts with facial assessment — proportion, volume distribution, skin quality, muscle dynamics and ageing pattern — and proceeds only where treatment is likely to produce a result worth having.

Dr Babamiri's approach is deliberately conservative. Faces that look treated are the result of over-treatment, and over-treatment is usually the result of treating symptoms one at a time without a plan. Where a patient's concern would be better addressed by skin health, hormones or sleep than by a syringe, that is what will be recommended.

Treatments offered:

  • Anti-wrinkle injections — glabella, forehead, periorbital, jaw and neck; medical uses including bruxism and hyperhidrosis
  • Dermal filler for volume restoration, structural support and asymmetry
  • Skin boosters, polynucleotides and bio-remodelling injectables
  • Regenerative treatments and microneedling
  • Medical-grade chemical peels
  • Prescription skincare regimens, including tretinoin and pigment-directed therapy
  • Complication assessment and correction, including management of poor outcomes from elsewhere
  • Anatomy-led planning
  • Full consent process
  • Cooling-off period
  • Complication management

Longevity medicine is preventative medicine with better data. The aim is not to chase an anti-ageing trend but to identify and modify the specific risks that determine how well — and how long — a person functions.

The process begins with comprehensive assessment: history, examination, and laboratory work chosen for what it will actually change. Results are interpreted against optimal ranges rather than the wide "normal" bands designed to catch established disease, and translated into a plan with defined targets and review points.

Typically includes:

  • Comprehensive blood panel — metabolic, lipid subfractions, inflammatory markers, thyroid, iron studies, vitamin and mineral status
  • Cardiometabolic risk assessment including insulin resistance markers
  • Hormonal profiling where relevant
  • Body composition and functional measures
  • Sleep, stress and recovery review
  • Nutrition and resistance-training strategy
  • Evidence-based supplementation — and de-prescribing of what isn't earning its place
  • Structured follow-up with repeat biomarkers to confirm the plan is working
  • Biomarker-led
  • Cardiometabolic focus
  • Measurable targets
  • Ongoing review

Hormonal symptoms are frequently dismissed, frequently mislabelled, and frequently treated without adequate assessment. Medicex takes the opposite approach: symptoms are mapped in detail, bloods are interpreted in the context of cycle and age, and therapy is titrated rather than issued.

Bioidentical hormone therapy uses hormones structurally identical to those the body produces. Regulated, body-identical preparations are prescribed in line with established guidance — with the risks, benefits and evidence base set out clearly so that decisions are genuinely informed.

Areas addressed:

  • Perimenopause and menopause — vasomotor symptoms, sleep disruption, mood change, brain fog, joint pain
  • Genitourinary symptoms of menopause and local oestrogen therapy
  • Testosterone in women where clinically indicated, including low libido and fatigue
  • Premenstrual disorders and cycle-related symptoms
  • Thyroid dysfunction and its overlap with hormonal symptoms
  • Adrenal and stress-axis assessment
  • Bone and cardiovascular risk in the context of hormonal decline
  • Male hormone assessment where appropriate

Therapy is reviewed regularly and adjusted. Doses are not left running unexamined, and treatment is stopped when it is no longer serving a purpose.

  • Regulated preparations
  • Detailed symptom mapping
  • Titrated dosing
  • Scheduled review

Delivered at CLNQ: Bioidentical hormone replacement, hormone blood testing, medical weight loss

Laser is a prescription-grade intervention, and the difference between an excellent and a damaging result is almost entirely down to patient selection and settings. Skin type, Fitzpatrick classification, recent sun exposure, medication history and the exact target chromophore all determine what can safely be done.

Treatments are planned by a doctor with dermatological training, patch-tested where indicated, and delivered in courses with proper intervals — not compressed to suit a schedule.

Indications treated:

  • Pigmentation, sun damage and solar lentigines
  • Melasma — approached cautiously, with pre-conditioning and realistic expectations
  • Vascular lesions — thread veins, telangiectasia, facial redness and rosacea-associated flushing
  • Skin resurfacing for texture, fine lines and pore refinement
  • Acne scarring and post-surgical scarring
  • Laser hair reduction across skin types, including darker skin with appropriate wavelength selection
  • Skin tightening and collagen stimulation

Where laser is the wrong tool — as it often is for active inflammatory disease or unstable pigmentation — an alternative pathway is recommended instead.

  • Fitzpatrick-matched
  • Patch testing
  • Course-based
  • Post-care protocol

Treated at CLNQ: Morpheus8, V-Beam PDL, CO2RE resurfacing, thread veins, laser hair removal

General practice as it is meant to work: enough time to take a proper history, examine thoroughly, and think. Appointments are unhurried, available at short notice, and delivered by the same doctor each time.

Available through the private GP service:

  • Extended consultations for new or ongoing concerns
  • Comprehensive health assessments and executive medicals
  • Direct access to blood tests, imaging and specialist referral
  • Private prescriptions and medication review
  • Chronic condition management — blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, metabolic health
  • Women's health, including contraception and cervical screening discussion
  • Travel and occupational health advice
  • Second opinions and review of care received elsewhere
  • Medical reports and letters

Private care sits alongside, not instead of, NHS care. With your consent, your NHS GP is kept informed so your record remains complete — which matters far more than it is usually given credit for.

  • Same-week appointments
  • Continuity with one doctor
  • Rapid investigation
  • Second opinions

Delivered at CLNQ: Private GP service, health checks, blood tests  ·  Surgical care at Deansgate Hospital

Before You Enquire

One honest expectation to set.

A consultation does not guarantee treatment. If Dr Babamiri concludes that a procedure is unlikely to help you, is unsafe for your skin type, or is masking something that needs investigating first, she will say so — and you will leave with a plan that addresses the actual problem instead.
