Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners (JCCP) awarded Professional Standards Authority (PSA) Status

The Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners (JCCP) , the new self-regulating body for the non-surgical aesthetics and hair restoration sectors, has been awarded Professional Standards Authority (PSA) status. 

JCCP chair professor David Sines CBE said, “I regard this to be a major step forward in the quest to deliver a new system of voluntary regulation within the rapidly developing and complex area of aesthetic treatments. Accreditation of the JCCP’s Register and the application of the Accredited Register quality mark will provide the public with the confidence and assurance they require to obtain treatment from those practitioners who practise safely and in accordance with our published practice and educational standards.” 

Harry Cayton, chief executive of the Professional Standards Authority, said, “We are very pleased to accredit the Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners register. Bringing these practitioners into a broad framework of assurance is good for the public and is the best way to promote patient safety.”
