Latest Research Shows Majority of Doctors Feel Untrained Practitioners are Endangering the Public


The CCR Expo (Clinical, Cosmetic and Reconstructive) which was held a couple of weeks ago in London is one of the biggest cosmetic surgery and aesthetics industry events worldwide. They recently commissioned a series of surveys to find out the opinions of aesthetics practitioners, GPs, dentists and women (as they represent 90% of aesthetic patients).

Out of over 70 cosmetic practitioners which included doctors, surgeons, dermatologists and nurses almost 9/10 felt that there are far too many providers of non-surgical treatments who are not properly trained, and are damaging the reputation of those who are credible. Over a third of these doctors and nurses felt that new practitioners lacked knowledge of facial anatomy, and 87% felt these badly-trained providers are putting the public in danger. In a survey of 500 women, 18% said they would not go ahead with a cosmetic treatment primarily because they were wary of ‘botched’ treatments as seen in the media and not knowing where to go for a safe treatment.

MATA Courses was created by plastic surgeons experienced in facial aesthetics to provide the highest level of aesthetics training and improve safety for patients. Our courses are led by tutors who are the best in their fields and ensure as much ‘hands on’ practical experience as possible.

Should Dentists Offer Botox?


Botox and dermal fillers are two of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments available worldwide and their popularity continues to grow rapidly. As dentists are healthcare professionals along with doctors and nurses, should they be offering Botox in their clinics?

Dentists are the true experts in facial anatomy and physiology as it’s what they deal with on a daily basis, not only that but they inject anaesthetic for a living and therefore know how to make injections as comfortable and quick for the patient as possible.

A big advantage that dentists have in carrying out dermal fillers treatments over any other healthcare professionals such as doctors and nurses is that they are skilled in carrying out dental blocks (anaesthesia) rather than other injectors who may use topical anaesthetic creams and therefore the treatment will be less comfortable. In addition, dentists are already knowledgeable on how to deal with adverse reactions in this area.

As facial aesthetic treatments gain popularity amongst dentists, now is the time to recognise them as specialists in oral and maxillofacial areas with a deep understanding of facial structures, muscles etc. With the highest standard of medical aesthetic training in this area delivered by expert tutors, at MATA we know that as a dentist you will benefit greatly from our Botox and Dermal Filler courses, learn quickly and feel confident in carrying out treatments on completion of your course.
