The Scottish Government have agreed to pass the Non-surgical Procedures and Functions of Medical Reviewers (Scotland) Bill.
This means as of September 2027 it will be a criminal offence:
➡️ For individuals who are not registered healthcare providers to provide any of these procedures, without supervision from a medical professional who is on site throughout the procedure
➡️ To carry out procedures outside of the 'permitted premises'
➡️ To provide these procedures to anyone under 18
The new Bill applies to non-surgical cosmetic procedures including botulinum toxin, microneedling over 1.5mm and chemical peels.
