Botox and fillers set to be regulated by Government in Scotland

Ainslie Cameron, aesthetic practitioner at Ultim8 SKN Solutions in Glasgow, commented: “About time, but guys, let’s be ethical and reasonable about this. I just hope the Government don’t make it a money-making exercise - penalising the good ones as opposed to the backstreet ones.”

Joyce Connor, owner of Joyce Connor Cosmetics in Reading, commented: “I think anyone charging for any cosmetic, beauty or hair treatment should be licensed. There are too many people making a mockery of the industry.” Marie Lamont, owner of Sparkles Beauty in Aberdeen, commented: “This is well overdue, not only in this area but within all areas of beauty and the services offered to the public. Interesting to see how this all works out” Jolene Young, beauty therapy learning assistant at Moray College UHI, commented: “It’s a start, but a ridiculously small one. Our industry has been screaming out for regulation for years, not just for these injectables.” Melissa Paterson, beauty therapist as Kohler Waters Spa, St Andrews, commented: “There needs to be different classifications. You can’t put someone who has studied for years in the same category as someone who has done a three-day course.”
