Professor Ali Ghanem is a leading aesthetic surgeon with specialist expertise in facial rejuvenation, skin tightening and regenerative aesthetic medicine. His approach combines surgical precision with a deep understanding of facial anatomy and ageing, allowing treatment plans to be tailored carefully to each patient’s features, concerns and desired outcome.
At Meyer Clinic, Professor Ghanem offers a comprehensive range of advanced aesthetic procedures, including:

Many treatments can be performed under local anaesthetic at Meyer Clinic, offering patients access to consultant-led care in a discreet and comfortable clinical setting.
For more advanced surgical procedures requiring general anaesthetic, care is coordinated seamlessly with The Ghanem Clinic in London. This ensures patients benefit from continuity of care, with the right treatment setting recommended based on clinical needs, safety and the complexity of the procedure.
Professor Ghanem’s treatments can also be combined into bespoke facial rejuvenation packages, designed to address concerns such as lower-face laxity, softening of the jawline, jowls, deep wrinkles, sun damage, acne scarring, volume loss and more advanced signs of facial ageing. Where clinically appropriate, upper and/or lower blepharoplasty may also be incorporated as part of a full facial rejuvenation strategy.

Daylight Photodynamic Therapy FAQs
Actinic keratosis is a rough, scaly patch on the skin caused by long‑term sun exposure. It isn’t skin cancer, but it can sometimes develop into one if left untreated. Treating it early helps keep your skin healthy and reduces future risk.
Bowen’s disease is an early form of skin cancer that appears as a slow‑growing, red, scaly patch on the skin. It stays on the surface and doesn’t spread deeper at this stage, which means it’s highly treatable. Getting it treated early helps prevent it from developing into a more serious type of skin cancer.
Yes. For some patients, 1–2 weeks before treatment is needed to soften actinic keratoses by applying a moisturiser. This helps reduce flaking and crusting, allowing the gel to penetrate more effectively.
Yes. A doctor will need to carry out an initial consultation to confirm whether you are suitable for daylight PDT.
Daylight PDT is typically much easier to tolerate than conventional (red‑light) PDT. Most patients feel only mild tingling, warmth, or slight discomfort during daylight exposure, rather than the stronger pain often linked with traditional PDT.
Daylight PDT takes about 2.5 hours in total.
The gel is applied first, followed by a 30‑minute wait indoors for the gel to penetrate, then 2 hours outside in daylight for activation.
Recovery is usually straightforward. Redness, mild swelling, dryness, and light crusting can occur for several days after treatment. Most patients find their skin settles within 5–7 days, although full healing may take slightly longer depending on the extent of sun damage treated.
Daylight PDT offers several advantages:
- Treats larger areas of sun damage in one session (more than one session may be required)
- Targets both visible and invisible (subclinical) damage
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive
- Generally less painful than traditional PDT
- Excellent cosmetic outcomes
Many patients require one treatment session, but some may need additional sessions depending on the severity of sun damage and the number of actinic keratoses present. Your clinician will advise on a personalised treatment plan.
Daylight PDT is a clinically proven and well-established treatment. When performed by trained medical professionals, it is considered safe and effective. Side effects are usually temporary and limited to local skin reactions such as redness and sensitivity.
