The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has given the rating to AIG Aesthetic Care in Goodall Street, Walsall, and taken further action to protect people following an inspection in February.
AIG Aesthetic Care is operated by AIG Aesthetic Care Ltd and offers cosmetic hair transplant surgery and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment.
PRP is a treatment aimed at stimulating hair growth by injecting someone’s own blood cells into the scalp.
CQC previously inspected last September, and due to concerns, took action to suspend the service.
Another inspection was carried out a month later in October to check on the progress of improvements which health inspectors had told them to make.
Inspectors found some improvements so when the suspension end date passed the company was again able to provide the treatments regulated by CQC.
