A few years ago someone choosing to get botox or filler was a much talked about affair, these practises weren’t the norm and were typically outside the budget of everyday beauty enthusiasts. Over the years through a rise in accessibility and demand, however, these habits have become extremely popular for many people and this has become even more so in the aftermath of the pandemic. Google Trends data shows a 97% increase in searches for botox in the months leaving lockdown versus pre-pandemic.
With so much increase in demand comes a struggle to find reputable and credible aestheticians to trust with your body and unfortunately there are many practitioners not adhering to industry health and safety guidelines. Aesthetics are procedures that must be a personal choice for each individual and with that it is always best to do your research and be comfortable with the clinic before committing risking your health or money. It just isn’t work saving a few quid to end up with a botched procedure.
For your benefit, we’ve done some digging and pulled together a detailed list of the top rated aesthetic clinics in the Manchester area to ensure you find the right place for you in fitting with your budget. For each we have included examples of top customer reviews from past patients. Take a look below.
