Backing Wider Regulations

We were pleased to hear a report on Radio 1 earlier in the week that doctors are calling for more stringent regulations on the delivery of non-surgical cosmetic treatments.

Currently, there are no regulations setting standards of competency for delivering treatments such as Botox and Microdermabrasion, and this means people are risking having treatments delivered by someone without adequate training. This may occasionally lead to drastic and unwanted results.

O ur clinics are registered, audited and inspected by the Healthcare Commission who require rigorous procedures and protocols for our powerful and effective Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments.  As a business we have chosen to apply the same high standards to all our treatments giving you a greater level of peace of mind, BUT WE ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BY EITHER GOVERNMENT OR INDUSTRY REGULATION.  We would welcome greater regulations across the whole of the industry as this would ensure that the delivery of non-surgical treatments is backed up by adequate training and investment so clients can be ensured both of their safety and that their expectations will be met during their treatments.

Let us know what you think by taking part in this month's poll (see left).
