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: doctors_am, 17 September 2026 — secondary source names the physician (former M1 = 2); shown on the profile as a fact — M1 is not scored while the country's specialist register is closed |

| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Twenty-eight staff members are named with role in Armenian, English and Russian on the doctors page, with the chief physician identified, and tied to this single address. [site-doctors] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-17 | |
| 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: clinic_published_number, 17 September 2026 — Loaded 22 pages of the clinic site in hy, en and ru on 2026-09-17. The footer publishes the FACILITY licence "K-BO-003315, issued: 04.10.2022" and an advertising permission number, but no physician licence number, so the M3 = 3 anchor (physician licence published by the clinic) is unreachable. |

Last attempt: facility_registry, 17 September 2026 — 0 matching rows (The clinic publishes the licence number K-BO-003315 (04.10.2022). The Unified Electronic Register of Licences searches by licensee name only; ՀԵԼԻՈՍ in the medical-aid-and-services class returns three licences, all held by «ՀԵԼԻՈՍ ՊՈԴՈԼՈԳԻԱՅԻ ԿԵՆՏՐՈՆ» ՍՊԸ at ՏԵՐՅԱՆ Փ. 57, 2 — a different address — s) Register queried, no record found.

| 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 names no legal entity on its site; the State Register search for ՀԵԼԻՈՍ returned 14 companies, none of them an operator at this address. Only the brand is traceable. [moj] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Partial, without issuers. The facility licence number and an advertising permission number are published on every page, but without naming the issuing authority, and no physician or legal-entity number is published.

| M7 | Advertising honesty An unconditional absolute about the patient's future safety or the treatment outcome — zero risk, no complications, “100% safe”, “result guaranteed” — in the clinic's own rendered text (bright line; cap 65). A safety guarantee appears in the clinic own text on the English about page, and in the Russian front as «гарантирована абсолютная чистота и стерильность». [site-about-en] absolute sterile cleanliness is guaranteed |

Score ceilings
- Outcome guarantee or ‘100% safe’-class statement — ceiling 65/100The clinic's own page https://helios.am/about_us_en/ (en, 2026-09-17) states: “absolute sterile cleanliness is guaranteed”. Under this methodology an outcome guarantee caps the score at 65.[site-about-en]
Ceilings are applied only from verified-false findings with the exact quote or register entry cited. The clinic has a right of reply; a statement with a source changes the data, a statement without one is shown next to it.
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.
| Identifiable: live public surface + working in-country contact | verified yes [site] |
|---|---|
| Provides the service itself (not an aggregator, booking site or tour packager) | verified yes [site-aesthetic] |
| In scope: the intervention is performed by a physician | verified yes [site-aesthetic] |
| Names a responsible physician | verified yes [site-doctors] |
Who is responsible
Named physicians and the legal entity, as published and as matched in the registers. A missing number is a statement about disclosure, not about licensing.

Secondary findings (not scored)
What a professional society, an international directory, a hospital page or another jurisdiction’s register says, shown for information where the country’s own register is closed. These facts enter neither the score nor the coverage.
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician SECOnly secondary sources support the specialty: doctors.am lists Helen Gh. Azaryan as Cosmetologist, Head Physician at "Helios" medical center, and the ISAPS Armenia group lists Dr. Gayane Mkhitaryan as Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Helios Medical Center. No Armenian public register publishes physician specialty.[doctors-am] [isaps]
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
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.
