One of the most common questions I get from returning patients is:
“Do I still need to see the prescriber again?”
The answer is yes, and there’s an important reason for this.
Anti-wrinkle injections are classified as a prescription-only medicine in the UK, which means they must be prescribed specifically for each patient.
Before prescribing, a qualified prescriber must assess your current medical history, medications and suitability for treatment.
Even if you’ve had treatment before, the prescriber needs to confirm that the treatment is still safe and appropriate for you at that time.
This process helps ensure treatments are performed safely and responsibly. Think of it like any other prescription medication - it has to be prescribed for you each time.
At The Tweak Clinic, we always follow proper medical guidelines because patient safety will always come first.
