Shafee is the founder and name behind the QOVES brand. You may have heard him on our YouTube video as lead narrator but his background in physical anthropology and beauty has allowed the company to evolve from a Photo-Retouching agency to a full-on Beauty Consultancy to better understand what makes a face attractive. He also has a dual-degree in engineering and works as the technical visionary at the Machine-Learning division of QOVES in producing ethnically inclusive and responsible A.I.

Shoaib joined QOVES as an aesthetics consultant given his extensive background on the topic. His previous work involved fact-checking and researching scientific literature to help assist brands in providing factual content. Currently, he works on the Facial Aesthetics Report as a writer, evaluating cephalographic measurements and providing holistic advice on cosmetic flaws, based on his experience in the field.

If you've seen any of our Youtube videos, chances are Mohammed had a hand in making the video. He is our dedicated video editor, compiling scripts, text, images, narrations and video into one beautiful creation that we put out on our channel. He has helped shift the stylistic elements of our video into a cleaner, more minimalist format that our fans have come to love over the years.

Habib is our lead draftsman responsible for drawing up the cephalograms that the report writers and aesthetic consultants will later use. His main skills are in graphic design which is necessary given that images are scaled under a soft-tissue analysis (which is not as accurate as a hard tissue X-ray) and so having an understanding of facial landmarks and technical computer skills is a must.

Khaled Mahmoud is a graduate medical professional currently interning at Menofia University's Faculty of Medicine & Hospitals with 5 years of experience in writing medical content. He joined QOVES as a remote content creator, being responsible for the large majority of the cosmetic flaws series developed for the brand to educate the public on common facial issues and their possible treatments. His articles and writing style are a mix of medical depth with user readability, making him the perfect fit in being a relatable educator on the aesthetics topic.
