How much do aesthetic clinics charge for common treatments?

UK aesthetic treatment prices vary by clinic, location and treatment type. Anti-wrinkle injections for one area typically range from £100-£250. Dermal filler for lips ranges from £200-£450. Laser hair removal courses (6 sessions for a standard area) range from £200-£800. Medical-grade facials range from £80-£300. London and city centre clinics typically charge at the upper end.

Do aesthetic practitioners need to be regulated in the UK?

The Aesthetics profession is undergoing regulation under the Health and Care Act 2022. Botulinum toxin (Botox) prescriptions already require a prescriber (doctor, nurse prescriber, dentist, pharmacist prescriber). The government has committed to requiring a licence for practitioners of non-surgical cosmetic procedures. Membership of professional bodies like BACN, ACE or JCCP is currently the primary quality signal.

How do aesthetic clinics attract clients?

Instagram and TikTok are the primary discovery channels — before-and-after content and treatment demonstrations drive strong engagement. Google local search for specific treatments drives high-intent enquiries. Client referrals are highly converting. Some clinics invest in influencer marketing partnerships with aligned lifestyle and beauty content creators.

What is a good client retention rate for an aesthetic clinic?

Aesthetic clinics should target 60-75% of treatment clients returning for a second appointment within 6 months. For anti-wrinkle clients specifically, quarterly return rates of 70%+ are achievable with proactive rebooking systems. Loyalty programmes, treatment reminders and personalised recommendations at each appointment significantly improve return rates.
