Statement about independent content restrictions at CCR 2025
Aesthetics, including the Aesthetics journal, ACE, CCR, and The Aesthetics Awards, relies on advice from its Clinical Advisory Board and key industry associations regarding clinical matters.
The current advice is that invasive aesthetic treatments like dermal fillers, botulinum toxin, threads, and similar procedures should be performed by qualified medical doctors, dentists, nurses, and prescribing pharmacists. These practitioners must be registered on the GMC/NMC/GPhC /GDC (dentists only) or equivalent international registers.
As a result, the educational independent content sessions related to such treatments, presented at our events such as ACE and CCR, will only be available to these qualified professionals. Visitors should check the individual session on the ACE/CCR agenda to confirm which professionals are permitted entry.
Sponsored content restrictions at CCR 2025
Some sessions at CCR are sponsored (typically with the brand name in the title). Due to the nature of the content, these sessions may only be open to practitioners on certain medical registers. These requirements are put in place by the sponsors or brand hosting the session, and it is completely up to their discretion. Any further questions should be addressed to the session host directly.
Unless stated in the title, sessions in the CCR agenda are likely to be non-sponsored. These sessions are independently created and have no affiliation with any pharmaceutical company.
