This is why choosing a safe, medically-led clinic matters.
As a Registered Nurse and Independent Prescriber, any prescription-only medicines used in my clinic are sourced through reputable aesthetic pharmacies, with a traceable supply chain back to the manufacturer.
That means proper prescribing, proper storage, proper documentation and proper accountability.
If a treatment price seems significantly cheaper than everyone else’s, it’s worth asking yourself why.
Your face, your health and your safety are worth more than a bargain treatment.
Always ask:
Who is prescribing? - you should have a face to face consultation with the Prescriber.
Where has the product come from? Is it licenced for use in the UK?
Is it traceable?
Is the practitioner insured and clinically trained?
Cheap is not always cheerful when it comes to injectable treatments.
