All treatments and plans are documented on our website and the information leaflets we provide you before the treatment.

4.2 Continuity of our services and treatments – We cannot guarantee you continued treatment with the same staff or aestheticians, but we do our best to provide continuity of care.

Please note that Course fees are thoroughly outlined in our printed materials. The scheduling of your First Consultation signifies your acceptance of the fee and your agreement to pay.

We will typically verify prices prior to accepting your purchase, and if the service’s exact price at the time of your order is less than our advertised price, we will charge the lesser amount. If the true price of the service at the time of your order is greater than the price listed in our price list, we will contact you for instructions before accepting your order.

11. Our Responsibility For Loss Or Damage You Suffer

11.1 We are liable to you for all foreseeable losses and damages we cause. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are liable for any loss or damage you incur that is a foreseeable result of our breach of this agreement or our failure to exercise reasonable care and skill, but we are not liable for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is deemed foreseeable if it is evident that it will occur or if both you and we understood at the time the contract was formed that it would occur, such as if you discussed it with us during the booking process. To be clear, however, we are not liable for any economic loss or any other special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage arising out of or in connection with its provision of services to you, including harm resulting from your failure to provide us with any information required by clause 4.3.

13.6 We can still enforce this contract even if we delay in doing so. If we do not insist immediately that you perform any of the actions required by these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you for breaching this agreement, that will not mean that you are relieved of those obligations or prevent us from taking actions against you at a later point.
