How does BookAClinic verify clinics?

BookAClinic checks every clinic against four Malaysian government registries before listing: MOH Act 586 facility registration, MMC Annual Practising Certificate, procedure-matched LCP credentialing, and NPRA/MDA product and device authentication. Verification is not self-reported — it is checked against official records.

What is the RM10,000 Booking Protection?

Every eligible booking made through BookAClinic is automatically covered by up to RM10,000 contractual protection at zero cost to the patient. It covers six breach scenarios including unlicensed clinic, unlicensed doctor, expired LCP, fake products, unapproved upsell, and booking non-fulfilment. It is not insurance — it is a direct contractual remedy funded by the clinic.

Is BookAClinic free for patients?

Yes. BookAClinic is completely free for patients. There is no registration fee, no consultation fee, and no charge to use the AI face analysis or doctor verification tools. BookAClinic earns a revenue share from verified clinics only when a patient booking is successfully delivered.

How do I verify if a doctor is LCP certified in Malaysia?

Use BookAClinic's free Doctor Certification Lookup at bookaclinic.ai/check-doctor-certification. Search by doctor name, LCP number, or MMC number. The register is updated monthly from Malaysia's official LCP data and is searchable by procedure, state, and expiry status.

Which aesthetic clinics in Malaysia are verified by BookAClinic?

BookAClinic lists 100+ verified clinic branches across Malaysia, all of which have passed the four-point regulatory verification. Verified clinics carry the BAC Verified badge showing the last credential check date. Browse verified clinics at bookaclinic.ai.

Are salon skinbooster injections legal?

Injectables must be administered by registered medical practitioners; salon injection is both illegal and where grey stock concentrates.

Can I report a suspected grey seller?

Yes, to NPRA and MOH; keep packaging and payment records.

Quick verdict

Authorised stock moves manufacturer to registered importer to clinic with cold chain and NPRA registered oversight. Grey stock moves through consolidators and social media sellers, sometimes into home injectors and salons. The brand on the box is identical; the storage history, authenticity and legal recourse are not. Skinboosters are injected dozens of times per face, multiplying any contamination risk.

Authorised vs grey supply

	Authorised clinic stock	Grey-market vials
Cold chain	Documented	Unknown
Authenticity	NPRA registered, traceable	Unverifiable
Injector	Licensed, LCP certified doctor	Often salons or home injectors
Recourse	Clinic and regulator accountability	None
Typical price	RM1,200 to RM2,800 per session	RM300 to RM800 per session

What these cost in Malaysia

The grey discount is the cost of removing every safeguard; priced against one infection or one dead vial, it is not a saving.

Which should you choose

If a skinbooster session is priced like a facial, it is supplied like a cosmetic, not a medicine. Choose registered stock at a verified clinic, or choose a cheaper registered product openly rather than a premium name from an unverifiable channel.

How to make sure you get the real thing

The verification questions never change: licensed, LCP certified, MOH registered doctor and premises, NPRA registered stock, batch in your record. Every BookAClinic verified partner passes them before listing.
