AHPRA and TGA Law Updates – Compliant Strategies for Moving Forward

IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you are providing cosmetic injectable services in your salon or clinic, you should attend this panel discussion.
As the industry is aware, on the 15th of January this year the TGA announced major changes to the advertising of cosmetic injectable services to the public.
TGA and AHPRA have provided clear guidelines of what you CANNOT say, but are not prepared to provide us with any recommended terminology that CAN be used as they believe that is up to the industry to determine.
Currently, many businesses are panicking and working to pull down their present non-compliant information from their website, marketing materials, social media, and printed brochures.
Meanwhile, there is little to no replacement terminology that they are confident in replacing the old terminology for fear of it not being fully compliant. This is resulting in less consumer engagement with their clinics or salons, as there is now very little communication of what services are available that would fall within the injectable cosmetic category.
Mindful of this challenge APAN has reached out to our National Advisory Council – Academic/Scientific Division to review some recommended terminology that would allow us to support our members moving forward.
This panel discussion will provide you with valuable terminology and new strategies for moving forward that will allow your business to remain compliant as well as implement the “new marketing language” that will support your business to promote your services in an regulatory compliant manner.
We will also be discussing a new industry approach to the regulatory process that would be more collaborative with regulating agencies inviting them to engage with the industry prior to the introduction of a regulation, as once guidelines are embedded in law, any amendments are highly unlikely.
Bring your questions to ask the panel. This session will provide you with answers to your questions.
