Information we collect
- Contact details such as your name, phone number and email address when you enquire or book an appointment.

How we use your information

- To meet legal, regulatory and insurance obligations.
How we store and protect it

Terms of Service
Appointments and cancellations
- Appointments are booked in advance and confirmed by message or email.
- Please give as much notice as possible if you need to cancel or rearrange, so the time can be offered to someone else.
- A deposit may be requested to secure certain appointments. Where one applies, it is explained before you book.
- Arriving significantly late may mean the appointment has to be shortened or rearranged, because sessions are not booked back to back.
Consultation and consent
- No treatment is carried out without a consultation and your written, informed consent.
- Treatment may be declined or deferred where it is not clinically appropriate for you.
- You can change your mind at any point, including after a plan has been agreed and before treatment begins.
Medical history and suitability
- You must give a full and accurate medical history, including medication, supplements and any previous aesthetic treatment.
- Tell us if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, as this affects what can be offered.
- Some medical conditions and medications make treatment unsuitable, or make it sensible to wait.
Treatment and results
- Results vary between individuals and no specific outcome can be guaranteed.
- Swelling and bruising are normal and results should be judged once they have settled, usually at around two weeks.
- A review appointment is included after treatment and you are encouraged to attend it.
- Aftercare instructions are given in writing and following them affects both your result and your safety.
Payment
- Payment is due on the day of treatment unless something else has been agreed in advance.
- Prices are confirmed in writing at consultation before you commit to anything.
- Any deposit paid is deducted from the treatment cost.
Concerns and complaints
- If you have a concern after treatment, contact the clinic straight away rather than waiting for your review appointment.
- Complaints are handled directly by Dr Julie Ridley in the first instance.
