On Saturday 2 September 2023, the much-anticipated government consultation into a new licencing scheme for non-surgical cosmetic procedures was launched and can be found here. In what has been described as ‘the biggest shake up in a generation’ by the JCCP,  the proposed new licensing scheme will make it an offence for anybody to carry out non-surgical cosmetic treatments without a practitioner and a premises licence in England. Senior Associate, Alaw Krishan-Gray, provides an overview of the latest position. 

Alaw’s article here also gives a summary of the current position and what providers need to consider during the consultation period.
