In 2001, Dr Cat started The Face Place in Vulcan Lane, with just $13,500. Some of you may recall we’ve moved a couple of times since then – first to the corner of Vulcan Lane and Queen St in 2004, and then street front to the Britomart Precinct to make the statement that ‘cosmetic injectables are now mainstream and deserve to be visible. For 11 years Britomart has been our city clinic home and it has served us extremely well, offering the skin and injectables treatments that we have established a remarkable reputation for over the past two plus decades. With the lease period for the Britomart clinic coming to an end, and the clinic now being too small for our growth needs, we’re excited to be on the move. 

We share with you often that we are always trialling and researching new treatments that come into our industry, many of which don’t meet our stringent standards of ‘natural Cosmedicine with Integrity’ 

· Safe 

· Simple 

· Effective 

· Naturally based 

· Medically proven 

· We are happy to trial it on ourselves (because we do!) 

A very high proportion of the treatments and products we try don’t meet our high standards and criteria, whilst others do and we introduce these to our clinics. Over the past decade we have introduced our Vampire treatments, Intimate Wellness treatments, Profhilo, EmFace, Skin Pen and nutrient rich peels. Our business has grown as has our reputation, and we are quietly confident that we have earned these. 

With this continued growth, in 2023 we knew that our current Britomart Clinic wasn’t going to be able to accommodate the ongoing plans we have for the business, and we went in search of a suitable space to build and develop a new space for our team and valued clients. This has been a longer process than we anticipated, but we know that it will be worth every bit of effort that we have put into bringing our vision to life. We are now well into the building process and in a few short weeks the building phase will be finished, then the mammoth task of packing up our current Britomart Clinic and moving into our new clinic will be upon us. 

We can’t wait to welcome you into our new clinic opposite the Downtown Ferry Building in early June. An immense amount of thought has gone into developing a space that is serene and provides everyone who steps inside it an environment that allows them to relax. From the moment you enter our doors, you’ll be greeted by our tranquil atmosphere designed to soothe the senses and ease any tensions. Our team has meticulously curated every aspect of the clinic to ensure your comfort and well-being. Whilst the building and clinic will be new, our highly skilled and dedicated team will continue to provide you with gold standard treatments that are tailored to your individual needs – and we have some exciting new treatments coming too! 

In both our Britomart and Takapuna clinics, you’re more than just a patient – you’re an extremely valued member of our community. We have always been committed to building lasting relationships based on trust, respect, empathy and honesty. Together we will work towards achieving your skin, cosmetic, medical and intimate wellness goals. 

We can’t wait to embark on this journey with you and welcome you into our new clinic in early June. Be sure to follow us on Instagram @thefaceplacenz to see our ongoing updates about the move. We will also be sending out an email with directions to the new clinic and the parking options. Your appointment reminder text will also remind you that we have moved and where to find us. 

Thank you for your continued support as we make this next exciting transition!
