Independent regulatory reviews · Aesthetic clinics · England

Your clinic, reviewed.

Reads your clinic the way a regulator reads it.

Your Instagram and ads, your prescribing set-up and your consent paperwork, checked against the rules ASA, MHRA, CQC and your insurer actually apply. You get a plain-English report: what a regulator would notice, and what to fix first.

Free first look. No sales call.

Sound familiar

If any of this rings true, the review is for you.

I post before-and-after photos, and I'm never sure what's actually allowed.
My prescriber is external, and I couldn't fully explain how our handover works.
My insurance renewal asked questions I struggled to answer.
I'd struggle to put my hands on last year's consent forms if someone asked.

Every one of those is something an inspector, an insurer or a client will eventually check. We check it first.

STEP 2

We review.

Your socials, ads and paperwork, checked the way a regulator, an insurer or an unhappy client would check them.

You get the report.

A plain-English report: what's fine, what's risky, and what to fix first. Within five working days.

The reviews

Who you answer to

Six bodies read your clinic from the outside. CQC is only one of them.

ASA / CAP

Can pull your ads and name your clinic publicly. Cosmetic and weight-loss ads are priority targets.

MHRA

Advertising Botox or weight-loss injections to the public is a criminal offence.

CQC

Can inspect, restrict or cancel your registration. Registration is where scrutiny starts.

GMC · NMC · GPhC

Can suspend or strike off the prescriber your whole clinic depends on.

Your insurer

Can refuse to pay a claim if consent or records are missing. A missing consent form is usually discovered by the claim itself.

Your local council

Runs premises licensing where it applies today, and will issue the new national licences for most procedures.

What you receive

What the review catches.

Illustrative example

@clinic_example · public post

Summer glow is here. Wrinkle-relaxing injections from £150, this month at our Manchester studio. Book now, only a few spots left before the holidays.

An indirect reference to a prescription-only medicine

"Wrinkle-relaxing injections" points to a prescription-only medicine, and attaching a public price can be treated as advertising one.

Urgency and scarcity

"Book now" and "only a few spots" count as sales pressure on a regulated treatment, a pattern the ASA flags.

Event pegging

"Before the holidays" ties a medical treatment to a social deadline. That framing draws complaints.

The example is illustrative and describes no real clinic. The full review reads every public post, page and form this way, then hands you the fix list in priority order.

Regulatory Insights

The rules keep moving. We track them so you don't have to.

PrescribingJune 2025

Remote prescribing for cosmetics is over.

The NMC was the last regulator to fall in line: nurse prescribers must now see the patient face-to-face before prescribing aesthetic treatments. If your prescriber works remotely, the old booking flow no longer fits.

Advertising2025

Weight-loss injections: the rules tightened.

ASA and MHRA put clinics on notice: even the phrase "weight-loss injections" in an ad can be treated as promoting a prescription-only medicine. Brand names were never the only trigger.

LicensingOn the horizon

The licence for aesthetics is coming.

Section 180 of the Health and Care Act 2022 created the power to license non-surgical cosmetic procedures in England. The scheme isn't live yet, but the direction is confirmed. Local councils will run the licence for most procedures, with CQC oversight for the highest-risk tier.

Who reviews you

A decade auditing regulated businesses.

Sacha, founder of Clinic Ready

Clinic Ready was built on a decade in prudential risk and banking regulation. That work meant reading regulated businesses the way their supervisors do, and writing it up so boards could act on it.

The same discipline now works for aesthetic clinics in England. The result is an independent, documented check of how your clinic holds up when someone looks closely.

Independent by design: the fix stays in your hands. Risk-reducing, not risk-free.

Independent regulatory reviews for aesthetic clinics

This month

Five founding reviews this month.

Founding rate for the first five clinics, in exchange for a short note on whether it was useful. Two questions and a sentence. We handle the rest.

Apply · two questions
Asked before booking

Before you ask.

Is this legal advice? +

No. The review is an independent check with practical recommendations: general information rather than legal or clinical advice, and no certificate is issued. Where a question genuinely needs a lawyer, the report says so.

Do you fix what you find? +

No, and that is deliberate. You get the exact lines worth changing and the order to change them. The changes stay in your hands, because a reviewer who sells the fix has a reason to find problems.

Will this get me in trouble with anyone? +

No. The review is private, between you and us. We check public pages and the documents you choose to share. We don't report to any regulator, and nothing is published.

Why England only? +

The rules we check against (ASA and CAP, MHRA, CQC registration, the 2025 prescribing rules) are specific to England. A review is only useful when it matches the rules you actually answer to.

How long does it take? +

Five working days from the moment we have your links and documents, for any of the three reviews. No site visit, and nothing changes in your diary.

What do you need from me? +

For a free first look, one screenshot. For a full review, a short intake: your handles, your booking link and, for the paperwork review, the forms you already use.

One screenshot is enough
