The Pemberdeen Laser Cosmetic Surgery Clinic Limited is operated by The Pemberdeen Laser Cosmetic Surgery Clinic Limited. The clinic opened in 1985 and was registered to provide the regulated activity under a different location name. The hospital primarily serves the communities of the London and north Kent areas but also accepts patient referrals from the wider community. The hospital provides a range of cosmetic surgery, including breast augmentation, liposuction and abdominoplasty. Over 95% of procedures were for breast augmentation. The service does not provide services to NHS-funded patients or patients under the age of 18. At the time of this inspection, there was no registered manager, but an application had been submitted to the CQC for the person who had been recruited into this position. The position of nominated individual was not appointed to when we inspected.

The inspection was undertaken on 21 August 2025 by an inspector and a specialist advisor with experience in surgical procedures. We have inspected the hospital location 21 times since its registration and under the former location name. The most recent inspection was in December 2021, during which we rated the provider requires improvement overall. At this inspection we found that the clinic manager had been in post a few months and was in the process of setting up systems and processes to ensure that the service met the regulations. There remained many aspects of the service that did not currently meet the minimum standard required by the regulations. This placed patients at risk. We have rated the service inadequate and found four breaches in relation to safe care and treatment, premises and equipment, good governance and staffing.
CQC has taken regulatory action in relation to the concerns that we found. We may publish this information on our website after any representations and/or appeals have been concluded, if the action has been taken forward.
