About ShookraBusiness Bay & Palm Jumeirah
A physician-led longevity clinic in Dubai.
Shookra brings longevity medicine, aesthetics, dermatology and IV therapy under one physician-led practice. We don’t age because we run out of time — we age because repair fails. So we measure where your biology stands, then treat the mechanisms underneath, with evidence rather than guesswork.
The science of more good years.

The method
Measure first. Then intervene.
One method runs the whole practice. Diagnostics aren’t a department here — they’re the first step.
01Measure
Advanced panels across bloods, biomarkers and body scanning build a clear picture of how you're actually ageing.
02Intervene
Your physician designs the protocol from that map — sequenced to your data rather than to a trend.
03Extend
We re-measure, track what's changing and adjust over time. Care managed as one practice, not one-off visits.
What we believe
Medicine before marketing.
Good aesthetic and longevity work is good medicine. Every protocol is led by a physician who assesses first and recommends only what the evidence supports — and is candid when a treatment isn’t right for you. We don’t make outcome promises or chase trends.
That discipline runs through everything: conservative, natural-looking aesthetic work; diagnostics-led longevity protocols; and education that’s honest about what each treatment can and cannot do. Pricing is discussed individually, and care is managed over time rather than handed over after one visit.
We’re a DHA-licensed clinic in Dubai, with two locations — Business Bay and Palm Jumeirah.
The space
Inside the clinics.
Calm, medical-grade settings in Business Bay and on the Palm — both designed around unhurried, physician-led care.
The clinicians
Physician-led, every protocol.
Every protocol at Shookra is designed and supervised by a DHA-licensed doctor. That is not a positioning line — it decides who assesses you, who selects the treatment, and who is accountable for the plan. Between them the team covers specialist dermatology, aesthetic and functional medicine, regenerative therapies and general practice, alongside hair restoration and plastic, vascular and orthopaedic surgery.
The clinical commentary published on our treatment and condition pages is written and attributed to the doctor who leads that area, so you can see whose judgement sits behind a recommendation before you book.

What we treat
Three families of care, nine areas, one practice.
Shookra is organised around areas of medicine rather than a menu of devices. Most clients arrive for one and end up spanning two, which is the point of running them as a single practice: the diagnostics carry across, and the doctors talk to each other.
Longevity
Measure where your biology stands, then act on the mechanisms underneath — diagnostics-led and physician-designed.
Aesthetics
Medical-grade skin, contour and hair — devices, injectables, dermatology and surgery, diagnosed before anything is treated.
Specialist Care
Specialist-led medicine — assessed before anything is offered, and explained in plain language.
Licensed & Regulated
DHA-licensed. MOHAP-approved.
Every treatment is delivered at Shookra, a DHA-licensed medical facility in Dubai. Every physician and clinician on our team is DHA-licensed and works to clinical protocol. Our health communications are independently reviewed and approved by the UAE Ministry of Health & Prevention (MOHAP).
