We will continue to work closely with relevant stakeholders to assess how the proposed licensing scheme will interact with these existing legislative requirements in order to minimise duplication of oversight and bureaucracy.
HA dermal fillers are not “bulk” gels but are constituted by crosslinked HA particles, resulting from fragmentation.
These fillers are more suited to finer corrections and can provide a more natural feel when injected, such as for less dynamic wrinkles (tear troughs, soft tissue found in lips and the periorbital region). However, these gels tend to have a shorter residence time in the tissues.

Another benefit of PRF, says Dr Zamani, is that it can help reduce the appearance of dark circles around the eyes, as well as treat acne scars and stretch marks.
To better protect individuals who choose to undergo high-risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures, we propose introducing regulations to ensure that these procedures may only be undertaken by qualified and regulated healthcare professionals.
the provision of any green or amber procedure where the circumstances of the provision meet the criteria for the procedure to be classed as the CQC regulated activity of treatment of disease, disorder or injury (TDDI)
All here cosmetic procedures have some risks but we recognise that there are concerns about the serious risks associated with certain non-surgical procedures.
