3. APPOINTMENTS AND CANCELLATIONS
• If you are unable to attend an appointment, please get in touch with us immediately , giving at least 48 hours notice prior to your appointment time.
• Failure to give 48 hours notice will result in the loss of that treatment should it have been fully paid for as part of a package or single treatment or the loss of any deposit paid.
• Please note that we may be unable to carry out your treatment for laser treatments if you are suntanned. If you have had recent sun exposure, please get in touch with your clinic at least 48 hours in advance for advice. If we cannot carry out your treatment safely on the day it will result in the loss of that treatment.
• Please arrive at your appointment at least 15 minutes in advance so that you may complete any necessary paperwork.

• We ask that any children under the age of 16 are not left without an adult to chaperone them whilst your treatment or consultation occurs. Failure to bring an adult chaperone with a child under the age of 16 could lead to the forfeiture of an appointment, treatment or deposit.
4. DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS
• To secure an appointment for treatment, a deposit is required.
• Deposits are not required to secure appointments in respect of initial consultations.
• Dr Aqsa’s skin clinic can use deposits for payment towards any treatment. The deposit will count towards the total cost of the treatment, and you must pay the outstanding balance before treatment commences.
• Any deposits not used within 12 months after the payment date will be forfeited.
• You must use all single treatments purchased within 12 months of the date of purchase. The date of purchase is the date of the initial deposit.
• The ONLY time a refund can be issued is if the client has a severe medical condition, supported by a doctor’s letter.
• If you are advised not to continue with your course of treatments for any medical reason, please obtain a medical report from your doctor. If you have used any sessions, this will be deducted from your refund value as a pay-as-you-go cost. Any refund agreed is calculated by subtracting the total list price of all treatments already taken, plus any charged for non-attendance, from the full price of the course of treatment, with the difference returned to you. You must understand that Dr Aqsa’s skin clinic cannot be held responsible for any unknown side effects that may occur due to having any treatments.

• All treatments purchased as a course (involving several treatment dates) must be paid for in full when booking the first treatment of that course.
• All courses of treatments must be used within 12 months of the initial purchase. The date of purchase is the date of the initial deposit. Where there is a stated clinical need to deliver a package over a longer period than 12 months, the package must be delivered within 24 months.
• Where a course of treatment is to be paid for using a Finance scheme, the finance company will request the funds upon completion of the first treatment.
• Payments for courses are only refundable for medical reasons. Any refund will be calculated by deducting the value of the number of treatments used multiplied by the price for a single treatment from the amount paid. Non-attended appointments not cancelled within terms will count as a treatment used.
