- Your website or social content names or promotes prescription-only medicines directly
- Your marketing uses countdown timers, “book by Friday,” or limited-slot urgency prompts
- Your before/after images don’t have signed, dated proof of authenticity on file
- Your consultation records include diagnostic labels written by a non-prescribing practitioner
These are not incoming proposals.
