Welcome
Welcome to Skin by Dr Serena. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our website, services and online bookings. By accessing this website or booking an appointment with Skin by Dr Serena, you agree to comply with these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use our website or services.
These Terms should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which explain how we collect, use and protect your personal information.
Medical Information
The information provided on this website is for general educational and educational purposes only. It is not intended to replace a medical consultation, diagnosis or treatment.
All aesthetic treatments require an individual consultation and medical assessment before treatment can be offered. Recommendations made during your consultation are based on your medical history, examination, treatment goals and professional clinical judgement.
Treatment suitability, expected outcomes and the number of sessions required will vary between individuals. No guarantees can be given regarding specific results.
Consultations
All new patients are required to attend a consultation before undergoing treatment. This allows us to assess your medical history, current medications, allergies, lifestyle, treatment goals and suitability for treatment.
In some cases, treatment may not be performed on the same day as the consultation. Dr Serena reserves the right to decline treatment where it is not considered clinically appropriate, safe or likely to achieve a natural-looking result.
Bookings & Payments
Appointments may be booked online or directly through Skin by Dr Serena.
A deposit is required to secure all appointments. Your deposit will be deducted from the final cost of your treatment on the day of your appointment.
By making a booking, you confirm that all information provided is accurate, complete and up to date.
Cancellation & Late Arrival Policy
We kindly ask that you provide at least 72 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
Deposits are non-refundable. If you provide more than 72 hours’ notice, your deposit can be transferred to one future appointment. Deposits are non-transferable if less than 72 hours’ notice is given.
Appointments cancelled or rescheduled with less than 72 hours’ notice, missed appointments or failure to attend will result in the loss of your deposit and may incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of the treatment cost, at the discretion of Skin by Dr Serena.
If you arrive late for your appointment, we will always do our best to accommodate you. However, if there is insufficient time to safely complete your treatment, your appointment may need to be shortened or rescheduled, and the cancellation policy may apply.
Treatment Results
Every patient is unique and individual results will vary.
Factors including age, genetics, lifestyle, medical conditions, smoking, sun exposure and adherence to aftercare advice may all influence your treatment outcome.
While every effort is made to achieve the best possible results, Skin by Dr Serena cannot guarantee specific aesthetic outcomes.
Risks & Complications
All medical and aesthetic treatments carry potential risks and side effects. These will be discussed with you during your consultation before any treatment is performed.
By proceeding with treatment, you confirm that you have had the opportunity to ask questions, understand the potential risks and provide informed consent.
Aftercare
Following your treatment, you will receive personalised aftercare advice.
Failure to follow your aftercare instructions may increase the risk of complications or affect your final results. If you have any concerns following treatment, you should contact Skin by Dr Serena as soon as possible.
