Covid-19 Information

Covid-19 Information- Infection and Vaccination

In both our premises we have been working hard to ensure that we can provide you with as safe a treatment as possible in these uncertain times with Covid-19 around us. All treatments will be carried out in line with government and NHS guidance and as guidance changes we may alter how we do things to ensure we keep you safe.


All treatments will be by appointment only. There is now availability for booking online for both sites but more appointment times can also be arranged to suit by contacting us directly by phone, text or email. 

We now offer a secure Telehealth video call appointment consultation especially suitable for new patients which avoids the risk of face to face appointment. We do still offer in clinic consultations if necessary. 

We would prefer you to complete your questionnaires and consents online through our patient portal before your treatment, including the Pre-treatment Covid-19 questionnaire which must be completed within 24 hours of your treatment. This will be emailed do you.

If you have any symptoms suggestive of Covid 19 please do not attend, but please do let us know. 

Similarly if you have been in contact with anyone with suspected Covid 19 in the preceding 14 days, do not attend, and let us know.
We realise that appointments may have to be cancelled at short notice.

Please arrive alone and on time for your appointment. The doors will be locked -please knock and we will let you in when it is safe to do so. 

On arrival you will be asked to wash your hands, or clean your hands with approved medical sanitiser . You will also sanitise your hands before leaving. 

We will keep a log of all patients in the building to facilitate tracing of contacts should anyone using our services develop Covid-19.

We would ask you to wear a mask (treatment permitting). 

We may take your temperature using a contactless thermometer and ask you to wear overshoes. Please try not to bring many personal items but we do have boxes which we can clean for placing your personal items in.

You will be asked before your treatment to complete a specific questionnaire regarding Covid-19 and based on the result of this a decision will be made if treatment can take place safely.

PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) will be worn by all staff, appropriate to the procedure being carried out, which will likely consist of a mask, a facial visor or goggles, hat,  a disposable apron and gloves. These will be single use and disposed of between each patient, or if not disposable then cleaned appropriately.
​
If possible please do not touch any surfaces. All surfaces touched by any patient will be cleaned thoroughly between patients. These include things such as iPads and pencils as well as couches, chairs and trolleys. The toilets will be for emergency use only.

We have put in place extra cleaning to keep you safe and all staff are monitored for contact with Covid-19 patients, or symptoms of Covid-19. We are limiting the numbers of patients in the premises at any time and have increased time between appointments. You may also have a remote consultation done by video call to limit the time spent face to face. You will be asked to sign a specific Covid-19 consent form as we do not know if there is any impact of the virus on these treatments as the virus is new. 

Symptoms suggestive of Coronavirus/Covid 19 infection:
Fever above 37.8 C 
Dry cough
Shortness of breath
Runny nose
Sore throat
Loss of sense of taste or smell

If you have had Covid-19 and wish to have a treatment with us then we would advise you to wait until a minimum of 28 days following a positive test, or until you are feeling completely well if you are suffering from longer term effects of the illness. Whilst we appreciate that this may be disappointing, it is for your safety as we do not fully know the risks of aesthetic treatments under these circumstances. 


COVID-19 infection and vaccinations - What we do know in regard to dermal fillers

mRNA vaccines are known to be highly immunogenic and can activate an immune response in foreign body implants (including dermal fillers) Other triggers are known to be infections - including COVID-19 - dental procedures and excessive UV exposure. It is thought currently that delayed onset nodules/reactions occurring due to COVID-19 infection may be more protracted and difficult to resolve given the often profound immune response induced by COVID-19.

Current UK Aesthetic guidance is that dermal filler procedures should not be undertaken if COVID-19 vaccination is planned within 2 weeks or within 3 weeks of having received it.
​We also suggest that you do not have toxins (for wrinkle reduction) or other aesthetic treatments for 1 week either side of the Covid-19 vaccines.
