3. TREATMENT RESULTS
3.1. To achieve the best possible outcome for our patients, Karwal Aesthetics will endeavour to discuss all suitable treatment options (including no treatment), fees, duration of results, risks and side effects. We encourage our patients to be involved during the consultation process as much as possible in order to understand cosmetic concerns and expectations. We will guide but never enforce treatment(s) on the day and ensure that you are fully informed throughout the process. Completion of verbal, written and photographic consent are mandatory before commencing treatment. However, Karwal Aesthetics reserves the right to refuse treatment if a patient is deemed to be unsuitable, unprofessional, defamatory, rude or abusive to any member of staff, or if the treatment is not in their best interests clinically or psychologically.
3.2. Dr Karwal will discuss treatment expectations with you at the consultation, and will strive to achieve the best result for you. Treatment results and duration of time may vary between individuals, with no guarantee of a desired result or duration of result. This is due to multiple factors, including face structure, skin type, pre-existing asymmetry, lifestyle factors and individual biological metabolism.
4. REFUNDS
4.1. Every effort will be made to ensure you have the best possible outcome but as with all medical procedures there can be a spectrum of results. As individuals differ in their responses to and the outcome of, the treatment, no clinical or financial guarantees can be given.
4.2. Treatment fees cannot be refunded in the case of a sub-optimal result including no result, or complications including allergic reactions, as all fees paid are related entirely to the services provided i.e. professional time, expertise, product costs and other costs incurred in providing the treatment, and those costs are incurred irrespectively of the results achieved.
No additional costs may occur should threatening complications arise from the treatment and dissolving is required.
Karwal Aesthetics Clinic will not provide refunds on treatments that have been provided in good faith or refunds on treatments if the patient has had an adverse reaction to treatment.
4.3. No refunds will be provided for treatments that have already been performed. Due to variations in individual anatomy and bodily responses, we cannot guarantee specific results. Tyndall effect and persistent pinkness/redness are not complications—they are individual bodily responses that we cannot predict or control.

5.2 Faulty products will need to be returned to the clinic for an assessment before a refund can be processed.

A rare but important complication is nerve bruising, specifically to the "marginal mandibular nerve" located in the lower face on either side of the lip angles.

31. CLINICAL JUDGEMENT, TREATMENT SUITABILITY AND RIGHT TO REFUSE TREATMENT
Karwal Aesthetics reserves the right to decline, postpone or discontinue treatment at any time. This includes (but is not limited to) situations where:
Treatment is not suitable, not advisable, or is unlikely to provide meaningful benefit
There are medical concerns, contraindications, or safety risks
The patient is focused on correcting very minor or unnoticeable imperfections
The patient repeatedly seeks further treatment to “perfect” small details where additional treatment is unlikely to improve the overall result
The patient’s expectations are unrealistic or not in line with what can safely and predictably be achieved
There are concerns about psychological suitability, including possible Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) or other mental health conditions that may be negatively affected by treatment
The patient is making emotionally driven or impulsive decisions about treatment
As part of the consultation process, you may be asked about your expectations, how you feel about your appearance, and relevant medical and mental health history. Where there are concerns about psychological suitability or repeated requests for further treatment in the same area, the practitioner may:
Decline or postpone treatment
Recommend or require a cooling‑off / reflection period before any further treatment is carried out
Advise you to seek further assessment and support from your GP, a mental health professional, or another appropriate healthcare provider
Refer you for a second opinion and decline to provide further aesthetic treatment until such assessment has taken place
Non‑surgical aesthetic treatments have limitations and results vary between individuals. No specific outcome can be guaranteed. By proceeding with treatment, you acknowledge that:
Results may differ from reference photos or previous treatments
Small asymmetries and minor imperfections are normal in human faces and bodies
Further treatment to “perfect” very small details may be declined where it is not in your best interests or unlikely to provide meaningful benefit
Karwal Aesthetics also operates a zero‑tolerance policy towards abusive, threatening, harassing or otherwise inappropriate behaviour towards staff or other patients (including persistent unwanted contact about perceived minor imperfections). In such cases, treatment may be refused, appointments cancelled, and the patient may be banned from the clinic.
All decisions to decline, postpone or discontinue treatment are made at the sole discretion of the practitioner, with patient safety and wellbeing as the priority. Karwal Aesthetics is under no obligation to provide treatment in any circumstances.
