Female Facial Hair Removal Service
This private service enables your pharmacy to support women who suffer from facial hirsutism (excess hair growth). Allowing eligible female customers to obtain a 'Prescription Only' treatment to reduce hair growth, where other methods have been unsuccessful, and subsequently increase their psychological well-being. It's offered via a private Patient Group Direction (PGD) which requires the customer to have a consultation with a PGD authorised pharmacist.
Community pharmacy is ideally placed to improve the accessibility of such treatments to eligible customers at a time when it is increasingly difficult to obtain an appointment with a GP.
