Why Compare
Cosmetic Exists
The UK aesthetics industry remains largely unregulated. Anyone can perform most aesthetic procedures regardless of qualifications or training. There's no easy way to verify a practitioner's credentials, check their insurance, or confirm they follow proper safety protocols.
We believe patients deserve better. So do qualified practitioners who compete with operators cutting corners on safety and training.
Our Mission
To connect patients with rigorously vetted aesthetic professionals through transparent standards and patient education - raising the bar for the entire industry. We verify what you can't easily check yourself: qualifications, professional registration, and insurance coverage.
How We're Different
Unlike traditional directories that list anyone who pays, every professional on Compare Cosmetic passes our multi-step vetting process:
- Professional qualifications verified for their practice area
- Insurance coverage confirmed for treatments offered
- Professional registration active GMC, NMC, GDC, or HCPC where required
- Identity verification for transparency and accountability
- Ongoing monitoring of professional standing and patient reviews
