Membership

The association membership is open to ALL professionals already trained who wish to be represented by an ethical ‘not for profit’ association.

Our aim is to bring together individuals who wish to unite the rights of both the aesthetics practitioner and the general public united by principles of equality.

We also welcome all those that wish to join ACPB as a training provider to register. All training companies when endorsed by ACPB have to adhere to strict guidelines and protocols set out with transparency to promote the highest levels of training.
