Considering botox or facial aesthetics treatments in the Manchester area? The statistics should concern you. A UCL study found that 68% of UK cosmetic injection practitioners aren’t doctors, and 23% have no medical qualifications whatsoever. Some offering botox treatments completed their entire training in as little as two weekends.
Facial aesthetics complications aren’t just temporary inconveniences. Of patients who experienced problems with botox treatments, 69% reported long-lasting effects. 68.4% hadn’t recovered physically. 63.5% hadn’t recovered emotionally.
In 2025, 41 people developed botulism poisoning from unlicensed botox products used in cosmetic procedures. This condition causes paralysis and can be life-threatening.
Verify medical qualifications. Before any botox treatment, confirm your practitioner is a doctor, dentist, or registered nurse. Check their registration with the GMC, GDC, or NMC.
Question training and facilities. Weekend courses don’t qualify someone to administer prescription-only botox injections. Proper facial aesthetics clinics look clinical, not makeshift.
Demand proper assessment. Qualified facial aesthetics practitioners discuss risks, assess suitability, and might decline treatment. If they’re pushing you towards botox without thorough evaluation, leave.
84% of patients don’t know who regulates the aesthetics industry. The system prioritises transaction speed over your wellbeing. Don’t let price or convenience determine where you receive botox or other facial aesthetics treatments.
