- Skin Science clinic run by Registered General Nurse (RGN) at 10 Harley Street, London
- Treatments provided by Skin Science included fillers, injections, peels, and other cosmetic procedures
- Skin Science argued treatments were exempt from VAT as they were aimed at treating recognized medical conditions
- HMRC contended treatments were standard rated as they were primarily cosmetic and did not meet exemption requirements
- Decision was made based on the purpose of the medical intervention rather than the qualifications of the provider
