Editorial and Medical Review Policy

Every treatment, concern and comparison guide on AestheticsVerified is reviewed by a licensed doctor before it goes live, and again at least once a year. Clinic and price pages are checked by our research team using the methods described on how we check clinics and how we collect prices.

How a guide is made

1. The editor drafts the guide from regulator publications, product information approved by national regulators, clinical guidelines and peer-reviewed studies.
2. We use AI tools to help with research and first drafts. No page is published without human editing, and no medical page is published without medical review.
3. The medical reviewer checks every claim about effects, suitability, risks and recovery, and signs off with their name and date.
4. Each guide shows who wrote it, who reviewed it and when it was last reviewed.

Sources we use

Health ministries and regulators, professional medical bodies, approved product information and peer-reviewed research. We do not use clinic marketing as evidence for a medical claim. Sources are listed at the end of each guide.

Independence

Clinics cannot review, edit or approve our guides. Paid placements are labelled and never change editorial content. See how we make money.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it, note the change and the date at the end of the page, and reply to the person who told us. Email [[TODO: corrections email]].

Not medical advice

Our guides help you compare options and prepare for a consultation. They do not replace an assessment by a qualified doctor.
