Carisma Aesthetics
Under our open methodology this clinic scores 67.9/100 on structural verification: physician certification, licences, facility and legal-entity traceability, identifier disclosure and advertising honesty.
Rank #7 of 17 ranked clinics · last checked 20 September 2026
No crown: crowns require register-verified gates, never a clinic's own claim.
Summary
Non-surgical med-aesthetic clinic inside the InterContinental Hotel in St Julian's, offering injectables, thread lifts, laser and light treatments, body contouring and a medical weight-loss programme. Three doctors are named with roles on the site; all three are entered in the Medical Council's Medical Practitioners Principal List, two of them also in specialist lists that do not cover aesthetic medicine. The operating company, its registration number and its VAT number are published in the site's terms and matched in the Malta Business Registry publications feed.
Google Maps listing (reference, not scored)
What the clinic's public Google Maps listing showed when we read it: the rating other people gave, the number of their reviews and the hours the clinic itself publishes there. This block is a reference only — it does not enter the score, the rank, the ceilings or the holds, and we have not checked it beyond matching the listing to this record.

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 Found in the register with a current status; the register does not disclose the specialty, or discloses a different one (including “no specialisation”), and the clinic claims no protected title. The register's own line is shown on the profile. In the Specialist Accreditation Register, Scornavacca Giovanni appears in the GERIATRICS list and Teebi Zaid in the GERIATRICS and FAMILY MEDICINE lists; neither specialty covers the injectable, laser and skin services advertised. Chircop Francesca appears on the Medical Practitioners Principal List only. [board] [council] |

SEC | 16 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by name in the Medical Practitioners Principal List: 4039 Scornavacca Giovanni, 4406 Chircop Francesca, 2082 Teebi Zaid. The clinic does not publish practitioner registration numbers.

OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Queried, no match. Last attempt: facility_registry, 20 September 2026 — 0 rows across all 748 register rows for the terms Carisma, InterContinental, St Julian’s / San Giljan; the server-side search leg returned total_results 0 on Clinic_Medical and on Private_Hospitals for the same terms. Register answered HTTP 200 (two tables needed a retry after a transient Cloudflare managed challenge). Every table of the Licenced Establishments register was downloaded in full and searched on the establishment name, the street and the locality in both the Maltese and the English spelling; no row for this clinic or this address was returned. The register carries no aesthetic-medicine category, and no conclusion about the facility is drawn from the absence. |

| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The legal entity and its registration number are published by the clinic and matched in the register. |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Partial, without issuers. Company registration number and VAT number published with the registered address; no practitioner registration numbers and no facility licence number appear on the site. [terms] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty Systematic superlatives; systematic safety promises without an absolute; absolutes about the past (success rates, “no infection since …”, satisfaction figures, “we guarantee your satisfaction”); comparisons with surgery. Superlative claims run through the home page and footer, including a ranking claim shown without an issuer at the top of the page; the terms state that no specific result is guaranteed.

| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 17 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |

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.
