Dr Mo’s work with A’Whora, Tayce and Bimini Bon Boulash was featured in Dazed Beauty’s interview with Hannah Tindle, published on 25 May 2021. The conversation explored his journey from dentistry into aesthetics and his approach to treating people of different gender identities.
It is a memorable part of the Dr Motox story: a feature connecting the creativity of drag with an approach to aesthetics built around the person sitting in the consultation chair.
The Dazed interview
The original article named all three Drag Race UK performers as clients. Dr Mo discussed tailoring treatment to individual preferences, including how a look might work both in and out of drag. He also spoke about honest consultation and recognising when a requested procedure was not the right choice.

A consultation centred on you
A celebrity feature may be how you first discover a clinic. Your appointment, however, should begin with your own questions. You do not need to arrive with a technical treatment name or know exactly what you want to book next.
It is helpful to explain what you notice, what you would like to change and what you want to keep. You might want a subtle refinement, support with skin quality or simply a conversation about your options. That gives the consultation a useful starting point without deciding on a procedure in advance.
Personalisation beyond a celebrity photograph
A reference photograph can help you describe a preference, but your plan should be built around your face. Think about the qualities you like: definition, balance or a softer overall impression. Those words are often more useful than asking for somebody else’s exact result.
We also encourage you to say what would feel like too much. If you prefer a gradual approach, tell us. If you are uncertain about treatment, that is equally useful to discuss. A good consultation leaves room for questions, reflection and a decision that feels comfortable.
Preparing for your appointment
Bring information about previous treatment, including dates and products where you know them. Share your medication list and anything that has affected healing or caused a reaction before. Let the team know about important events so there is time to discuss recovery and follow-up.
Before deciding, ask what improvement is realistic, what alternatives are available, what the full cost would be and how reviews are arranged. Our guide to choosing an aesthetic practitioner offers more questions to take with you.
