And this area needs to be regulated.

You know, as I said, we I've been and all medical professionals have been asking for regulation in this in aesthetic medicine.

Danny, which is Association of Nurses, that we are really, really trying to get this through right at the moment.

But what we, it's a simple thing to do.

Scotland have just done it.

They are now licensing medical aesthetic clinics to do these procedures and practitioners as well.

So that if you do act outside that and you're not licensed, you can be prosecuted because that is one of the biggest problems.

Nobody can be prosecuted if you're not, if you're a non-medic because you're not registered with anybody.

So you're not going to lose your registration.

So anybody, Clare, you could walk in tomorrow, you can buy it online.

What they're injecting is the other problem.

We don't know what is in that.

You can put it.

anything in and I mean as medics our whole ethos is do no harm so we're going to ensure that everything we're doing is as safe as possible but unfortunately the people who are non-medics don't have that training they don't know what they're doing they're treating blindly and as I said before it's an extremely dangerous procedure And some of the ads for these cheap injectors they're really glossy aren't they they're really convincing

Yeah.

But what they're actually selling the procedure for.

I can't actually buy the filler for that.

So what are they using and where are they getting it?

Because no pharma company will supply non-medics with dermal fillers.

So that's a fear of we don't know what they're actually injecting in and what are the long term effects of that going to be.
