Reputable Organisations

The companies and associations that put safety first in aesthetics

The non-surgical aesthetics industry is completely unregulated in the UK. Virtually anyone is allowed to perform cosmetic treatments such as dermal fillers and toxin after just a short day of training, which can put you at risk.

While it’s not compulsory for aesthetic practitioners to be a member of any of the groups detailed below, knowing they are can give you some reassurance that the practitioner you have chosen to have treatment with is working to high standards and aims to put your safety first. A number of the groups have advised the Government on regulation and are spear-heading campaigns to improve aesthetic practice.

A note from us…

There are many organisations that do great work to support the aesthetic specialty, while others may have questionable motives. All those listed here have been selected by the Beauty Uncovered team following long-standing trusted relationships.

Of course, Beauty Uncovered and the organisations mentioned cannot guarantee that members associated with them comply with all standards set, so those seeking aesthetic treatment are always encouraged to do their own thorough research before choosing a practitioner.

We would always encourage you to undergo injectable aesthetic treatment with a medical practitioner who has appropriate insurance cover. To ensure your practitioner is medicallyqualified and does not have any restrictions on their practice, you should look them up on the relevant regulatory body register. These include the General Medical Council, the Nursing and Midwifery Council, the General Dental Council and the General Pharmaceutical Council.
