Hay Fever Treatment
At Aesthetics of Essex, hay fever treatment is carried out by a trained and experienced clinician.
At your consultation, one of our nurse prescribers or doctors will check your medical history to help decide whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
IMPORTANT – We recognise that this 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.

Why Choose Aesthetics of Essex for Hay Fever Treatment?
At Aesthetics of Essex, we treat hay fever differently from our cosmetic treatments.
It’s never carried out by a therapist or aesthetician. Every session starts with a face-to-face consultation with one of our nurse prescribers or doctors, and treatment only goes ahead if they’re satisfied it’s clinically appropriate for you.
Hay fever treatment is available at our Upminster, Rayleigh and Maldon clinics, so you can choose whichever is easiest to reach during pollen season.
