Vanessa Rudjord, Pia Tjelta and Synnøve Skarbø withdraw from controversial beauty clinic

The message states that the three women are withdrawing following the debate that has arisen because of the clinic, which is called Nomi Oslo. – We are sorry for the way the term women’s health was used in connection with the launch. Women’s health and aesthetic medicine are two different things, and we apologize to those who have been upset by this mix-up, Rudjord, Skarbø and Tjelta say in the message. The start-up of the beauty clinic has caused great debate. In the press release that was sent out in connection with the clinic’s launch, Nomi Oslo wrote that the clinic was about women’s health and prevention of what the body goes through. Several people reacted to that. The clinic offers a number of treatments within aesthetic medicine, which several have stated have nothing to do with women’s health.

Responsible doctor Karim Sayed says he regrets that the three profiled women are now withdrawing from the company. – But at the same time have understanding and respect for the decision they have made. In retrospect, we see that the communication in connection with the launch was wrong and recognize that part of the criticism is legitimate, says Sayed in the message. Sayed has also previously complained to news about the use of the word women’s health.
