Question
To ask the Scottish Government what accredited training schemes there currently are for unregulated non-healthcare professionals that perform invasive cosmetic procedures.
Answer
Individuals who are not healthcare professionals and provide such procedures are not currently regulated and therefore there are currently no regulated training requirements to work in the sector. Accreditation for training for the sector will also be considered as part of the work with stakeholders and the Scottish Cosmetics Interventions Expert Group.
