Hay Fever Treatment
At Aesthetics of Essex, hay fever treatment is carried out by a trained and experienced clinician, so you can relax knowing you’re in safe hands.
What is hay fever treatment?
We offer hay fever treatment to alleviate symptoms during the pollen season. We understand that hay fever can be challenging to endure, particularly when faced with symptoms such as a runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes, throat discomfort, watery eyes, sneezing and coughing, itchy ears and fatigue.
IMPORTANT – We recognise that the intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide injection is not licensed in the UK for the treatment of hay fever, and that any prescribing decision would be made only following an appropriate face-to-face consultation and clinical assessment, where it is considered clinically justified by one of our nurse prescribers or doctors.
Long-lasting seasonal relief
Hay fever treatment can suppress hay fever symptoms and keep them at bay for several weeks – the effects may even last the entire hay fever season. So, you can get on with your day-to-day without daily antihistamines.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is suitable for hay fever treatment?
Hay fever treatment is intended for adults who suffer from moderate to severe hay fever symptoms that can’t be relieved with over-the-counter antihistamines or even some prescribed medications. You’ll need to attend a consultation with us before treatment so that we can assess your suitability and you can ask any questions you may have.
How does hay fever treatment work?
This treatment works by temporarily suppressing the immune system’s inflammatory response to pollen, reducing allergic responses commonly associated with hay fever, such as itchy eyes and a runny nose.

There is a small risk of side effects, which may include redness, skin dimpling, changes in blood sugar levels and a dip in the immune system. Our clinicians will discuss all the potential side effects with you during an initial consultation – contact us today to book yours.
