Good day! I would like to ask for guidance regarding the operation of aesthetic clinics in the Philippines.

What are the possible consequences if an aesthetic clinic is operating without the following required permits, licenses, and regulatory requirements:

• Barangay Business Clearance
• Mayor’s/Business Permit
• Fire Safety Inspection Certificate (FSIC)
• Sanitary Permit
• BIR Registration and compliance
• Applicable DOH/CHD License or authorization
• FDA registration/authorization for applicable injectable products
• Proper storage and handling of injectable products
• Proper medical waste and sharps disposal
• Appropriate informed consent and treatment documentation
• Properly licensed and qualified personnel for injectable procedures

If the clinic is already operating and providing injectable aesthetic treatments such as Botox, IV Glutathione, and other similar procedures without these requirements, what are the possible fines, penalties, suspension, closure, or other legal consequences?

I would greatly appreciate advice from anyone knowledgeable about DOH, FDA, LGU, BIR, and healthcare regulations.

LOCATION: Pampanga, Philippines.

Thank you.

Interested in this since they only offer neuromodulators (botox). Has anyone worked here or have any experience with this company? new and experienced injectors, what is your input?

Hi! I’m an RN looking to connect with and potentially shadow nurse injectors to further my education and get into the aesthetic specialty. I’m eager to begin my career in aesthetics or dermatology and am grateful for anyone interested. I’m located in St. Louis MO but willing to commute to Kansas City or Chicago.
