Axis by axis
rubric value 1–5 · ? could not verify (no points, not a negative finding) · — not applicable: this country has no register of that class · OFF official register · SEC secondary source
| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries. Last attempt: napras, 18 September 2026 — Neither association route carries the responsible physician: the NAPRAS surname search returns no matching member and the ISAPS Nigeria member list (8 cards) does not include this physician; the dermatologists’ association site is unreachable (Cloudflare origin error). Nothing was retrieved about the physician’s certification and nothing is claimed. |
? | ? | 26 | 2026-09-18 |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The clinic’s own home and about pages name the founding physician with her role and tie her to this clinic. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries. Last attempt: napras, 18 September 2026 — MDCN’s free public lookup answers HTTP 500 to every query and its portal route is fee- and account-gated, so no Nigerian licence record can be read. The clinic states that its founder is registered with the UK General Medical Council but publishes no registration number, so that claim could not be checked either. Neither association route carries the responsible physician: the NAPRAS surname search returns no matching member and the ISAPS Nigeria member list (8 cards) does not include this physician; the dermatologists’ association site is unreachable (Cloudflare origin error). Nothing was retrieved about the physician’s certification and nothing is claimed. |
? | ? | 8 | 2026-09-18 |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Queried, no match. Last attempt: facility_registry, 18 September 2026 — 0 rows for the trading name; the full Lagos listing carries no facility under this name and none at the Ayo Babatunde Crescent address. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-18 |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability Only a brand, without a legal form and without a responsible person. Whatever we find ourselves is shown on the profile as a fact and does not raise this cell. The clinic’s own pages name no legal entity: the footer and the privacy page carry the trading name only. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. A registration claim is displayed as a label — the founder is described as a registered physician with the UK General Medical Council — but no registration number is published, and no facility or company number appears on the site. Pages loaded 2026-09-18: /, /about, /privacy, /clinics/aesthetics, /treatments. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty One or two soft superlatives or non-absolute safety promises. Two soft superlatives are used of the founder ("award-winning", "uncompromising safety"); no outcome guarantee was found. [site] GMC (UK) registered, award-winning, specialist in injectables, skin health, and non-surgical lifting. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 18 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-18 |
| M9 | Patient documents One. One of the five document classes is published: aftercare (the about page sets out aftercare guidance, access to the team and follow-up checkpoints). No informed-consent, risks/contraindications, revision-policy or complaint-route content was found. Pages loaded 2026-09-18: /, /about, /privacy, /clinics/aesthetics, /treatments. [site] |

Score ceilings
No ceiling applies. We never apply one on 'not found' alone.
Holds
No hold on this profile.
Inclusion policy
Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

| In scope: the intervention is performed by a physician | verified yes [site] |
| Names a responsible physician | verified yes [site] |
Who is responsible

| Physician | Role | Register ID |
|---|---|---|
| Dr. Ral Abana [site] | Founder; aesthetic medical physician | not published |
Legal entity: could not verify
Scope and procedure segments
Clinic focus: specialist (no focus adjustment) [site]
What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — Register closed to machine queries
- M3 · Basic medical licence — Register closed to machine queries
- M4 · Facility registration — Queried, no match
- M8 · Cross-locale consistency — Single language front
These cells score nothing and are not negative findings. A cell on a register that is closed to machine queries is left out of the coverage calculation; the others count against it. Each one names why it is empty; an attempt that did not complete is re-run in the next collection pass. If you can point to a public source, send it.
