Why Is This Needed

According to the JCCP, the key problems in the UK are:

  • Lack of regulation of practitioners
  • Lack of independent information and advice for the public and practitioners
  • Misrepresentation of the benefits of treatment
  • Sub-standard training of practitioners
  • Lack of accountability if things go wrong
  • Implementation of unwarranted variations in core treatment standards

This is what is leading to the many problems associated with risks attached to non-surgical anti-ageing treatments and hair restoration surgery by poorly trained practitioners.
