This European Standard addresses the requirements for clinical aesthetic practice: This covers both surgical and non-surgical medical services to patients to change physical appearance.

This European Standard provides recommendations for procedures for clinical treatment, including the ethical framework and general principles according to which clinical services are provided by all aesthetic practitioners. These recommendations apply before, during and after the procedure.

Dentistry[1]) procedures are excluded from the scope of this European Standard.

Aesthetic non-medical procedures (e.g. tattoos, piercing) provided by non physicians (e.g. beauticians, masseurs, hairdressers) in non-medical facilities (such as spas, salons) are excluded from the scope of this European Standard.
