Thinking of an injection to enhance your look? Ensure it’s safe!
Unregistered individuals do not have proper training or use safe products, which could lead to serious health complications like infections, scarring, or life-threatening risks. Seek care only from licensed professionals and licensed healthcare services to ensure both your safety and better results.
If you are unsure about a procedure or the person offering it, do consult your doctor or dentist.
The signs of a trusted healthcare provider
When it comes to medical procedures—especially invasive ones like injections—your safety is the top priority. Here’s how you can ensure you are in good hands:
- Only registered healthcare professionals should perform medical procedures.
- Always double check the provider’s credentials:
- Check the clinic’s credibility—if it’s not listed in the HealthHub directory, be cautious.
Understand potential risks
- Unsafe products can be harmful
Unverified treatments may contain dangerous ingredients, leading to serious side effects like diarrhoea, headache, pain, skin rashes, swelling of hands and feet, vomiting – and even death. Such products can also worsen existing medical conditions and delay proper treatment.
- Risky procedures and advice
Unregistered individuals may not have the right training, which puts you at risk of infections, lifelong scarring or severe health issues, especially with injections and invasive treatments.
- No recourse if something goes wrong
Unverified providers can be difficult to track down if you experience complications. Many operate under fake identities or disappear overnight, leaving you without support or a refund.
