Introduce regulation of those performing non-surgical cosmetic procedures
Closed

What the petition asks
We want the Government to regulate non-medical professionals performing non-surgical cosmetic procedures, in the same way as medical professionals are regulated. Medical professionals have regulatory councils and must be registered. We want the same for non-surgical cosmetic procedures.
We would like the Government to change how the Aesthetics industry in UK is allowed to operate. The lack of regulation of non-surgical cosmetic procedures means that professionals in this sector are often perceived as cowboys. We believe that as well as benefiting customers, regulation is desired by people working in this sector.
