ESTERA — aesthetic medicine and dentistry
Dr Nenad Stanković
DDS, DMD, specialist in cosmetology, international lecturer and educator. Founder of the ESTERA clinic in Belgrade.
Dr Nenad Stanković, DDS, DMD, is a specialist in cosmetology and founder of the ESTERA clinic for aesthetic medicine and dentistry in Vračar, in the heart of Belgrade. He graduated and specialised in cosmetology at the University of Belgrade. His practice is devoted to non-surgical facial rejuvenation — hyaluronic acid fillers, mesotherapy, chemical peels, PRP treatments and skin biostimulation.
He has lectured to international audiences since 2011, and since 2014 his lectures, live demonstrations and hands-on training have been part of the programme of the most prestigious world congresses of aesthetic medicine — from Monaco, Paris and Miami to Bangkok, Taipei, Medellín and Karachi. Through certified training courses and practical workshops he has trained hundreds of physicians, dentists and plastic surgeons around the world.
He is one of the founders of SUDEL and a prominent member of SESIAM, and for many years has been an international lecturer and master trainer for the leading global companies in aesthetic medicine. He applies the knowledge, skills and experience gained with the world’s most prominent experts every day in his work with his patients.
“Anti-ageing attracted me by the very fact that it deals with healthy people who want to live their years in harmony with a pronounced inner need to enhance themselves aesthetically. To achieve personal harmony and nurture a sense of fulfilment, all aspects of a person’s self-realisation need to be aligned. That is my mission – natural beauty that gains an ennobling strength.”
