Visiting The Osterley Skin Care Clinic – COVID-19 Update

Is The Clinic Safe Following The COVID-19 Outbreak?

We are doing everything we can to keep you safe. The wellbeing and happiness of our clients is of the utmost importance to us. As such, we have put key systems in place to ensure your treatment visit is safe.

  • Any staff will be regularly screened for COVID-19.
  • Any member of staff who develops symptoms or tests positive for the virus (or if someone they live with develops symptoms or tests positive), will not be allowed in the clinic.
  • Our staff will be wearing appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE), including masks, eye protection and gloves.

Your experience will feel a little different to past times, but your treatment outcome will be of the highest quality as always. Our staff will ensure your visit is an enjoyable one.

Despite the fact that progress has been made in lowering the number of COVID-19 infections in the UK, when you next come to the Osterley Skin Care clinic the virus will most likely still be present in our communities at different degrees. To reduce the risks and limit your time spent in the clinic, we will ensure that most of the information we require is obtained ahead of your appointment. Where possible we will provide you with the necessary information ahead of your visit.

If you, or anyone who lives with you, have symptoms related to COVID-19, please do not come to the clinic. These symptoms primarily include a dry cough and/or a temperature of 37.8°C or more. Other symptoms of the disease are less frequent but may affect you.
