Laser tattoo and hair removal, micro-needling and dermal fillers, cosmetic surgery. The seemingly magic transformations made
possible by skilled aestheticians and laser treatment professionals rest on an all-important foundation: hygiene.
Choosing high quality, rigorously tested, innovatively designed hygiene consumables, instruments, first aid supplies, and PPE will allow you to focus when you need to focus, work with precision in best practices, and impress every client.
Aesthetics and Laser Treatment Clinics: Health and Safety Laws
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 hold owners and operators of aesthetics and laser treatment clinics responsible for the health and safety of anyone who interacts with the business under a ‘duty of care’.
You must take reasonable steps to ensure that people are safe from harm when on your premises and/or receiving treatment. For clinics that offer nonsurgical procedures like dermal filler as well as invasive cosmetic surgery like augmentations, this means more than simply keeping your environment clean and tidy.
Open wounds, potentially harmful chemicals and instruments, and hazardous waste handling make aesthetics and laser treatment facilities a potential minefield of risks to health and safety. Any professional aesthetician will be well-versed in navigating legislation like the Cosmetic Products Enforcement Regulations, Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations, Environmental Protection Act, and the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations in order to maintain their license in the field.
Aesthetics and Laser Treatment Clinic PPE
Provide ample supply of PPE to allow your clients and staff the protection they need, whether that is to slow the spread of Covid-19 or to keep the theatre sterile.
Face Masks
In the UK the law currently states that face coverings must be worn indoors in establishments that offer personal care and cosmetic treatments to offer protection against the transmission of Covid-19.
While business owners do not need to enforce the wearing of face masks, they do have a duty of care to ensure everyone who visits the premises is safe from harm. Keeping a supply of face coverings in your clinic for customers and staff to use in reception and waiting areas will help everyone to uphold your infection control protocols.
Clinics that provide aesthetic services must also supply surgical face masks to aestheticians performing surgical procedures to maintain a sterile environment.
Type IIR Face Masks are ideal for use in your clinic. These medical-grade masks are 3 ply and splash resistant, offering a more than sufficient barrier against spreading airborne droplets, and other fluids. Type IIR masks are recommended by the government for use against spreading Covid-19.
FFP3 Valved Respirators offer protection for the wearer against breathing in droplets and aerosols. These can be provided to staff members who wish to protect themselves against Covid-19 infection transmission.
Surgical masks aren’t sufficient to protect against laser plume generated by laser treatment procedures. Laser plume may contain carcinogens, bioaerosols, viruses, toxic chemicals, and other dangerous vapours. FFP3 respirators are recommended to offer protection from laser plume particles.
Gloves
The use of gloves like lightweight, disposable Vinyl Gloves reduces the likelihood of transmitting bacteria when carrying out cleaning procedures and handling money.
Nitrile Gloves are an excellent option for sterile surgical procedures as they are graze and puncture-proof. Nitrile gloves will help aestheticians protect themselves from bloodborne pathogens by providing a durable barrier when using surgical tools.
Aprons
Disposable Aprons can be used to protect uniforms and work clothes when cleaning so that staff members stay looking their best throughout the day. Disposing of single-use aprons after each cleaning helps to reduce the transmission of bacteria and germs, keeping your clinic hygienic.
Long-Sleeved Gowns are essential for surgical procedures and laser treatments to protect the wearer from toxic chemicals, potentially infectious body fluids, and laser plume hazards. They also ensure the client receives treatment in a sterile environment.
Aesthetics and Laser Treatment Clinics: First Aid and Infection Control
Show your commitment to the health and safety of each person that comes through the door or your clinic by providing the best first aid and infection control supplies.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act, clinic owners must provide access to a first aid kit. The Steroplast Workplace First Aid Kit is British Standard BS8599-1 certified meaning it is equipped to cover the most common injuries that occur in the workplace and the contents meets significant quality standards.
As with any procedures that occur near the eye such as blepharoplasty or laser eyebrow tattoo removal, eyewash is a necessity. We sell 500ml Bottles of Sterowash Eyewash made with gentle saline solution PH Eur 0.9% w/v that will assist in eye irrigation without irritating the body.
In recent months the UK government and NaCTSO have begun to recommend business owners help a national effort to support people in the event of a terrorist attack with a Public Access Trauma Kit. Equipping your business with a PAcT Kit could mean giving someone life-saving access to medical supplies.
Your risk assessment will reveal whether or not your premises are legally required to install a defibrillator, but regardless of legal necessity, many businesses have elected to install AEDs in the event of an emergency.
Installing an AED on your premises means you could give someone in cardiac arrest the chance for survival, where cardiac arrest can be fatal in just ten minutes.
Hand Gel
Providing hand sanitiser throughout your clinic will help everyone do their part to keep the area clean and hygienic. Stero-san Hand Sanitiser Gel comes in a 500ml domed bottle that can be placed at entrance and exit ways and at touchpoints like the reception desk and waiting areas.
Aesthetics and Laser Treatment Clinic Hygiene Consumables
Laser and aesthetic consumables that won’t let you down at the critical moment, giving you the support you need for focus, precision, and attention to detail.
Clinical Waste Disposal
Yellow Sharps Bins should be used to dispose of needles and syringes that have been contaminated with body fluids. Sharps bins with purple lids (for cytostatic waste) are to be used for syringes or containers contaminated with Botulinum toxin.
Hazardous Waste Bags should be used to segregate harmful waste streams in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act. Yellow biohazard bags are to be used to dispose of body fluids and materials contaminated with body fluids, red biohazard bags are to be used for disposal of anatomical waste that is uninfectious. Find out more about the colour coding of hazardous waste bags.
In a clinic where the risk of body fluid spills is a daily occurrence, Biohazard Spill Kits can be used to safely and hygienically deal with potentially infectious waste.
Clinic Cleaning
Disposable Couch Roll provides a protective layer between patients and procedure or examination beds, making cleaning processes more thorough and streamlined. Our disposable couch roll comes with perforations for easy tearing and neat edges.
PDI Sani-Cloth AF Universal Wipes are a milder, gentler alternative to alcohol wipes but with the same level of disinfection. These wipes can be used for cleaning and disinfecting reusable equipment that doesn’t need to be autoclaved. They can also be used on furniture, surfaces, and touchpoints.
For spot cleaning, PDI Sani-Cloth Detergent Wipes are a quick and easy option, simply grab a sheet from the re-sealable pack for quick cleanups.
IV Equipment
Cosmetic services such as facial reconstruction, breast augmentation, and liposuction require the use of excellent quality IV equipment that can be relied on at each delicate moment of surgery.
Find medical aesthetic supplies and plastic surgery equipment here that allows your team to follow stringent hygiene guidance and do what they do best.
Luer Slip Tip Syringes are an everyday essential for aestheticians to administer subcutaneous injections or IV medications, or for extractions. Ours are available in sizes 1ml to 50ml and feature integrated plungers to prevent accidental removal.
Luer Slip Tip Syringes can be used with our Hypodermic Needles which come in packs of 100 in gauge sizes 19g to 25g and a variety of lengths depending on your exact needs. Each needle is colour coded to indicate its gauge size and length.
For draining fluids during liposuction, drawing blood, or needle-free bolus injections we stock IV Cannulas that are latex-free, compatible with BD luer-lock, and allow for minimal risk of discomfort. Our IV Cannulas are designed to reduce the risk of needlestick and exposure to blood on removal. Use IV cannulas in conjunction with our IV Giving Sets at only £2.10 each.
IV Dressing Packs can be used to assist with the safe, sterile removal of cannulas. Each kit contains everything needed for proper cannula aftercare. Inserting dressing packs into procedures will help to promote hygienic processes and best practices in the theatre.
Dressings and Aftercare
Let your clients see their results as soon as possible. Without the proper preparations and aftercare, recovery time can be prolonged, the risk of infection is heightened and the effects of treatments can even be negatively affected.
Prepare a sterile environment for the skin for treatments that involve subcutaneous injection or incision with these plastic surgery medical supplies. Individually wrapped PDI Alcohol Prep Pads in bulk boxes of 100 or 200. PDI Sani-Cloth® 70% Alcohol Wipes also contain 70% alcohol, effective at disinfecting in a short contact time, but come as larger sheets, ideal for non-porous tools and surfaces.
Surgical and non-surgical procedures should be followed with the support of robust aftercare products. Bandaging and dressing supplies of our calibre will enable you to provide the right pressure, support, padding, comfort, and hygiene to your clients.
Bandages will be in place until the 24-hour follow-up appointment. Make sure your client is comfortable, can rest, and their post-op wounds can begin to heal in a sterile environment with these aesthetic supplies.
We recommend our hospital-approved Steropad Non-Adhesive Double-Sided Wound Dressings for post-operative surgery sites to promote the natural healing process. They keep wounds safe and dry while drawing out any exudate. Steropore Adhesive Wound Dressings are ideal for smaller wounds and can be easily placed over the area, adhering to skin. These dressings come in eight different shapes and sizes to offer a convenient dressing.
Steroply Conforming Bandage is highly stretchy and flexible, conforming comfortably to even the most difficult areas of the body to provide light support. Dressings and bandages can be held in place with Sterotape Microporous which is kind on delicate recovering skin and painless to remove.
Make sure your staff have everything they need to deal with aseptic wounds with Wound Care Procedure Packs. Each pack contains disposable items to quickly, efficiently, and safely dress a wound. Using wound care procedure packs helps you and your team to follow strict hygiene best practices.
Steroswab Gauze Swabs are highly versatile and can be used for absorbing fluids around a surgical site but also for dressing wounds to offer a fibre-free barrier that will keep the site clean.
For the critical 24 hours following photofacial treatment or laser treatments to the face, a Burnshield Face Mask can provide essential support and comfort. The Burnshield is impregnated with a non-toxic, non-irritant water-based gel with moisturising properties and antiseptic tea tree oil.
