Why Prescribing Matters in Medical Aesthetics
Caption:
As an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and independent prescriber, patient safety has always been my priority.
In the UK, anti-wrinkle treatments (botulinum toxin) are prescription-only medicines. This means:
• A face-to-face medical assessment must take place
• A qualified prescriber must assess suitability
• Medical history, medications & contraindications must be reviewed
• Emergency management plans must be in place
Complications are rare — but when they happen, they require clinical knowledge, prescribing authority and immediate action.
Aesthetic medicine is still medicine.
For 10 years, I have built my clinic on evidence-based practice, anatomy knowledge and safe prescribing.
Your face deserves medical standards 🤍
