Please do NOT attend the clinic for an appointment if you are unwell. If you are unsure, please call and discuss with Jane-Louise Rippon, Managing Director who will liaison with Dr Rippon. Many treatments are contraindicated if you are unwell; this includes cold sores or local skin infections.

Routine review appointments are offered after treatment with Botulinum Toxin as a courtesy.
