We understand clients occasionally need to change or cancel their appointments so if you cannot make your appointment, need to reschedule, or cancel, we kindly ask that you provide us with notice, allowing us to offer your booking time to another guest. 

How long do I have to cancel my appointment?

You are entitled to cancel or amend your booking without charge up to:

3-hour notice for bookings made on the same day         
48-hour notice for bookings up to 2 hours
72-hour notice for bookings up to 3 hours or more

Will I be charged if I fail to show or forget to cancel? 

If you cancel less than the notice required (see above) or do not show to your appointment a 100% cancellation fee will be applied. Please note, this will apply to all bookings including course and membership treatments.

How do I cancel my appointment?

You can cancel and amend your booking online, by phone or email. We do not accept cancellations through our Instagram and/or Facebook channels to avoid delay in messages being received. To ensure you notify us in the correct time, we request that we are notified during our working hours, any cancellations or requests to reschedule outside of our working hours won’t be picked up until we return which may result in a late cancellation. Our online booking system will not allow you to cancel or re-schedule your appointment within 48 hours of your appointment.

Please note, all treatments and services at CYB Skin Clinic are non-refundable.

 

Phone bookings

A non-refundable 50% deposit or full payment will be required at the time of booking to secure your appointment(s), which can be paid over the phone or we can send you a payment link. Any deposit paid at the time of booking will be deducted from treatment total at checkout but in the result of a late cancellation under 48-hour notice or no shows you will be charged in full in line with our cancellation policy. 

Online bookings

When booking online or through our app, a small deposit will be taken to complete the booking by taking your card details. This deposit will be deducted from your treatment total at checkout but late cancellation under 48-hour notice or no shows will be charged through this card automatically in line with our cancellation policy. 

Can I pay for my booking online?

Unfortunately, we do not take payments through our website. If you would like to pay online, we can send you a payment link.

What if I’ve paid a deposit but decide to cancel?

All treatments and services at CYB Skin Clinic are non-refundable including deposits. If you decide to cancel and rebook, at a later date, which falls inside our cancellation policy, we will add your deposit to your account which can be used towards a future appointment within a specified time frame.

As some treatments are not suitable for certain conditions and for your comfort and safety, please ensure you notify us at the time of your booking (and in your consultation) if you have any medical issues, allergies, physical issues, disabilities, or if you are pregnant. If we are not made aware prior to your booking but when you arrive, we will endeavour to offer a suitable alternative if possible but it may result in your treatment being cancelled and the original charge will still be applied.

72-48-hours prior to your booking we will send you a consultation form electronically which you will need to complete and submit back to us at least 24-hours prior to your booking. You will be required to complete a specific consultation form for each treatment you book due to the different type of questions asked relating to specific treatments. 

Consultation forms will include questions relating to:

• Client Information
• Patch Tests
• Treatment History
• Lifestyle
• Skin Type & Concerns
• Treatment Plan & Goals
• Medical History 
• Allergies 

My medical history has changed since my last visit, what should I do?

At each visit you will be required to review the last consultation form you submitted and update any changes. It is your responsibility to ensure you notify us of any changes as some treatments are not suitable for certain conditions. 

Can I use my phone during my visit?

To ensure that you and all our clients have the best experience, we have a no phone policy through-out the clinic and politely ask that once you enter the clinic your mobile phone is placed on silent or turned off and refrain from taking phone calls in the clinic, this includes treatment rooms as you can still be heard in other treatment areas. Movies, music and all other forms of audio may only be listened to through headphones to avoid disrupting our other clients.

Can I bring friends or family with me?

We understand that you may wish to bring friends and family with you when you attend your appointment but to ensure minimal disruption to other guests attending the clinic we kindly request that you don’t bring anyone in with you unless they are receiving treatments. Due to health and safety regulations, unsupervised children are not permitted in the clinic and/or treatment rooms. If we have to reschedule on the day due to childcare arrangements, you may incur a cancellation fee.

Please call us on 01923 804445 or email us info@createyourbeauty.co.uk if you have any questions.
