Aesthetic Clinic in Birmingham Qualified Independent Prescriber Consultation Before Every Treatment Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Fees Book Now Our Aesthetic Treatment Approach in Birmingham Every treatment journey at our aesthetic clinic in Birmingham follows a structured, unhurried process. Here is how it works from start to finish. 01 Initial consultation You share your concern and desired outcome. The prescriber listens first and then suggests treatment. There’s also a required cooling-off period before any procedure. 02 Individual assessment We carefully examine the area. We look at muscle activity, skin quality, symmetry, and anatomical factors. These details help us choose the right treatment options. 03 Desired outcome discussion Realistic expectations are set from the beginning. Good aesthetic medicine focuses on real improvement. We are honest when expectations need to change. 04 Suitability assessment Medical history, medications, and skin condition inform suitability. Contraindications include pregnancy, breastfeeding, myasthenia gravis, infections, and aminoglycoside antibiotics. Treatments vary by patient. 05 Treatment recommendation Based on the full assessment, the prescriber recommends the right product, dose, and technique for your anatomy and goals. Nothing is decided before the assessment is complete. 05 Prescription where required Botulinum toxin is a prescription-only medicine. A valid prescription must be issued by the prescriber before any treatment takes place. This is a legal requirement under UK law. 07 Treatment Once suitability is confirmed and consent is given, treatment is carried out by the prescriber. Treatments are not sold without a prior clinical assessment. 08 Aftercare You leave with clear written aftercare guidance and a direct contact number. If anything concerns you in the days following treatment, you can reach us promptly. What Can Aesthetic Treatments Help With? Facial aesthetics can address a wide range of concerns related to ageing, repetitive muscle movement, or volume loss in the face. Common reasons patients come to us include forehead and frown lines, crow’s feet, heavy brows, neck laxity, jaw tension, and excessive sweating. Others come in because volume has reduced in the lips, cheeks, or chin over time, affecting facial balance and proportion. Some patients want subtle, regular maintenance. Others are working towards a specific occasion or milestone. Treatment is adapted to each person’s unique anatomy and goals. It’s not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Book Now Aesthetic Treatments Available at Your Local Erdington Pharmacy Below is a full overview of the non-surgical aesthetics available through our clinic, with a brief explanation of what each treatment targets and addresses. Anti-Wrinkle Treatments Our anti-wrinkle treatments in Birmingham use botulinum toxin. This helps relax active facial muscles and reduces lines from repeated movement. Results typically last three to four months and vary between individuals. Forehead lines Horizontal creases across the upper face develop from repeated brow raising. Treatment relaxes the muscles. This softens lines but keeps natural movement and expression. Frown lines The vertical lines between the brows, known as “11s,” form from years of focused facial movement. A measured dose relaxes the corrugator muscle without affecting overall expression. Crows feet Lines radiating from the outer corners of the eyes deepen with smiling, squinting, and sun exposure. Anti-wrinkle injections here tend to produce some of the most naturally balanced results. Brow lift Precise placement of botulinum toxin beneath the brow tail creates a subtle upward lift, opening the eye area. It is an option for those who want improvement without committing to surgical correction. Bunny lines Diagonal creases appearing across the bridge of the nose when scrunching or laughing. They respond well to a small, targeted dose and require minimal product to achieve a visible improvement. Gummy smile Caused by an overactive muscle that lifts the upper lip too far when smiling, exposing the gums. A precise injection limits how far the lip elevates, noticeably reducing it. Smoker’s lines Vertical lines around the mouth result from repetitive lip movement over time, not only from smoking. Anti-wrinkle treatment here is often combined with lip filler for improved overall results. Downturned corners of the mouth Overactive depressor muscles pull the mouth corners downward, creating a persistently stern or unhappy resting expression. Relaxing them restores a more neutral and natural appearance. Pebble chin An overactive mentalis muscle creates a bumpy, dimpled texture across the chin at rest. Targeted injections smooth the skin’s surface. They also greatly reduce unevenness. Jaw slimming/masseter Treatment gradually reduces the size of the masseter chewing muscle, softening a wide or square jaw over time. It also relieves symptoms in patients who grind their teeth or clench. Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) Botulinum toxin blocks the nerve signals that activate sweat glands, most commonly in the underarms. Results are significant in most patients and typically last several months per session. Turkey neck You can soften the prominent vertical bands on your neck (platysmal bands) with anti-wrinkle injections. This improves your neck’s profile without surgery and requires no significant recovery time. Dermal Fillers Our dermal fillers in Birmingham use hyaluronic acid. They restore volume, shape facial contours, and smooth deeper lines. Results are visible immediately; lip filler typically lasts six to nine months, while structural fillers (cheek/chin) may last twelve months or longer. Lip enhancement Hyaluronic acid filler boosts the lips’ volume, shape, or definition. It depends on your anatomy and what you want. You can achieve subtle hydration or go for fuller, more defined lips. Cheek augmentation Filler adds volume to the mid-cheek. This restores fullness and gives a subtle lift. This can also reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds by lifting the overlying tissue. Chin Augmentation Chin filler boosts a receding chin. It enhances facial balance and sharpens jawline definition. It is a non-surgical alternative for patients seeking improved chin projection without implants. Nasolabial folds The lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth deepen as volume in the mid-face reduces with age. Filler placed along this fold softens the crease naturally. Marionette lines Vertical lines from the mouth corners towards the chin give the face a downturned, aged look. Filler here restores structural support to the lower face and can improve facial symmetry. Deep line

Flu and COVID Vaccine in Birmingham Flu and COVID jabs in one visit Needle-free nasal flu spray for children Free NHS vaccines if you’re eligible Book An Appointment Call Us Today How the Treatment Works Getting vaccinated with us takes three simple steps. Most appointments are over within 15 minutes. Book an Appointment Book online or call us to see if you qualify for the NHS vaccine or prefer a private one. Unsure? We’ll verify your eligibility before your appointment. Attend Your Consultation The pharmacist will ask about your health, allergies, and current medications to ensure the vaccine is safe for you. Feel free to ask questions. Nothing proceeds without your consent. Receive Treatment Wear loose or short sleeves for the arm vaccine. Kids get a quick puff in each nostril for the nasal spray. We’ll inform you about side effects and when to seek help before you leave. Importance of Flu & COVID Vaccines Flu is not a bad cold. In a tough winter, it’s linked to thousands of deaths in England, and it fills hospital beds every year from December onwards. COVID-19 still puts older and vulnerable people in hospital, especially when new variants spread. Both viruses peak around the same time, which is when the NHS is under the most pressure. Vaccination lowers your chance of getting seriously ill. It also cuts the risk of passing the virus to a grandparent, a newborn or someone having cancer treatment. Book Now Who Is Most at Risk from Influenza & COVID? Anyone can catch the flu or COVID-19. Some people are far more likely to end up in hospital if they do: If you fall into one of these groups, don’t wait for the flu to reach your household. Get vaccinated early in the season. People aged 65 and over, with risk rising sharply after 75 Anyone with a long-term condition such as asthma, COPD, diabetes, or heart, kidney or liver disease People with a weakened immune system, from illness or treatments like chemotherapy and steroids Pregnant women, who face a higher risk of complications from flu People with a BMI of 40 or above Residents of care homes Young children, who catch and spread flu easily Who Is Eligible For The Free NHS Flu & COVID Vaccination The NHS sets eligibility every season, and it can change from year to year. We check you against the current criteria when you book. NHS Flu Vaccine You can usually get a free flu vaccine if you are: Aged 65 or over by the end of March Aged 18 to 64 with a long-term health condition Pregnant, at any stage Living in a care home A main carer for an elderly or disabled person, or receiving Carer’s Allowance Living with someone who has a weakened immune system A frontline health or social care worker Experiencing homelessness (rough sleepers and hostel residents aged 16+) Most adults are vaccinated from 1 October. If you’re pregnant, you can have it from 1 September, and it’s worth going early. Children aged 2 and 3, school-age children, and children with certain health conditions are also eligible. From 1 October 2026, pharmacies can vaccinate children aged 2 to under 18 in clinical risk groups. Ask us about your child’s nasal flu vaccine. NHS COVID-19 Vaccine Under current NHS guidance, you can get a free COVID-19 vaccine if you are: Aged 75 or over Living in a care home for older adults Aged 6 months or over with a weakened immune system Private Options If You’re Not Eligible Don’t qualify for the NHS vaccine? You can still get protected with us: Private flu jab £25 Private COVID-19 vaccine £90 per dose Many people go private because they work with the public, travel in winter, or simply don’t want to lose a week to the flu.   Flu & COVID Vaccines We Offer At Your Local Erdington Pharmacy Our Flu Vaccine For adults, we use a cell-based flu vaccine, grown in cells rather than hens’ eggs. The vaccine is updated every year to match the strains expected that winter. It’s an inactivated vaccine, so it cannot give you the flu. After the injection, your immune system builds antibodies, and protection kicks in after around two weeks. For children, we offer the nasal spray flu vaccine. It contains weakened flu viruses that train the immune system without causing flu, and there’s no needle involved. Our COVID-19 Vaccine We use an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, updated for recent variants of the virus, for both NHS and private patients. The vaccine gives your cells short-lived instructions to make a harmless piece of the virus’s spike protein. Your immune system learns to recognise it and fight the real virus if you meet it. The mRNA is broken down by your body within days. It doesn’t enter the nucleus of your cells and cannot change your DNA. Both vaccines can be given at the same appointment. Protection builds over roughly two weeks. Who Should & Shouldn’t Get Flu & COVID Vaccines? Most adults and children can have these vaccines safely. You should get vaccinated if you’re in an at-risk group or simply want to avoid a rough winter. Speak to our pharmacist first, or you may not be able to have the vaccine, if you: Have had a serious allergic reaction to a previous dose or any vaccine ingredient Have a high temperature or feel properly unwell on the day Had myocarditis or pericarditis after a previous COVID-19 vaccine Have a bleeding disorder or take blood thinners (you can usually still be vaccinated) The nasal spray isn’t suitable for all children, especially those with a weak immune system, severe asthma, active wheezing, severe egg allergies, or those in contact with immunosuppressed individuals or on aspirin. If the nasal spray isn’t suitable, we’ll talk you through the alternatives. Book Now Side Effects of Flu & COVID Vaccines Side effects are usually mild and settle within a day or two. They’re a sign your immune system

The pharmacy is welcoming and friendly, with staff polite, helpful and discrete. Most of all, I was put at ease during my blood test this morning, and was also offered a blood pressure test (I do test at home but I think it's great for people who don't own a BP unit at home). Test was quick and relatively pain free. My thanks to all staff for their kindness and professionalism.
