Dr Ed Clinics marks new chapter as practice expands its focus beyond aesthetics

Business Manchester · Clinic news · 22 October 2026

On 22 October 2026 Business Manchester reported on the clinic's change of name from Dr Ed Robinson Aesthetics to Dr Ed Robinson Clinics, shortened to Dr Ed Clinics in the article. The piece explained that injectables are still an important part of what the Hale clinic does, but that many patients now come for help with their skin, hair loss, regenerative treatments or men's health, and some never have an injectable at all. It also noted that the new name follows the clinic's first inspection by the Care Quality Commission, which rated it Good overall and in all five areas assessed, and that it arrives as the Government sets out plans for tighter regulation of the aesthetics sector.

What Dr Ed said

Dr Ed explained that the old name described what the clinic did when he opened it in 2022, but no longer reflected the care it provides today. He spoke about how his background in NHS anaesthesia and his medical training shape a clinical approach, looking at each patient properly and recommending treatment only where it is appropriate. He described the Good CQC rating across every area as a huge milestone, and welcomed the move towards tighter regulation, because these are medical treatments and should be treated seriously.

“Aesthetics remains an important part of what we do, but we’re becoming more of a medical clinic.”
