Who can provide Facial Aesthetic treatment?

Facial aesthetic treatments — including dermal fillers and wrinkle-reducing injections — are medical procedures that require a high level of skill and understanding of facial anatomy. But who is actually qualified to provide them?

Registered medical professionals only

In the UK, there are currently no laws preventing non-medical individuals from providing certain aesthetic treatments. However, this doesn’t mean it’s safe. The safest providers are registered medical professionals — such as doctors, dentists, and nurses — who have received appropriate training in facial aesthetics.

Dentists: facial anatomy professionals

Dentists are particularly well-qualified to offer these treatments. They have in-depth knowledge of facial structure, muscles, and nerves, and they regularly perform injections as part of their dental work. This expertise means they can deliver treatments safely and achieve natural-looking, balanced results.

Why training matters

Administering facial aesthetic treatments requires more than just injecting a product. It involves precise assessment of facial proportions, understanding how ageing affects different areas, and knowing how to handle any potential complications. Only trained professionals can do this safely and effectively.

Save Face accreditation: an extra layer of safety

Practices and practitioners accredited by Save Face have been independently assessed and meet strict standards for safety, cleanliness, qualifications, and ethical practice. This accreditation is a clear indicator that the provider prioritises patient safety and high standards of care.

What about beauty therapists?

While some beauty therapists offer injectables, they often do not have the necessary medical training or experience to deal with complications, which can put your health and appearance at risk.

Check before you book

Before having facial aesthetic treatments, always check your practitioner’s credentials. Ask about their medical background, training, insurance, and experience with the specific treatments you’re interested in.

At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, facial aesthetics are carried out by highly qualified dental professionals in a safe, clinical environment. We are also proud to be Save Face accredited, giving you complete peace of mind.
