Dr Edel Woods BA., BDentSc., Msc. Skin Ageing & Aes. Medicine
Dublin | Cork
Dr Edel’s passion lies in enhancing her patients’ natural beauty, standing by her personal philosophy of ‘less is more’. Through subtle tweaks and a distinctly holistic approach, she has become one of Ireland’s most sought-after aesthetic practitioners.
“In my practice, I focus on identifying the characteristics that make my clients uniquely beautiful, accepting the features of ageing that represent positive life experiences and softening the features of ageing that make us appear less like ourselves”, says Dr Edel.
“I aim to provide treatments that respect and reflect the individual’s personal story, enhancing not just their appearance but their overall well-being”.
The ORA Method reflects Dr Edel’s vast experience in aesthetic medicine and centers on thorough assessment of each client's facial structure, personality and goals; ensuring treatments not only enhance appearance but empower self-confidence. By meticulously evaluating changes in facial support structures and the skin, Dr Edel and her team at ORA eschew one-size-fits-all solutions in favour of customised, harmonious treatments. Her philosophy is flexible and patient-centric, focusing on individual goals whilst blending the best of science and wellbeing.
