Judging

The Aesthetics Awards are judged by 100 independent, expert judges from across the aesthetics specialty. These include top aesthetic doctors, plastic surgeons, dentists, nurses, business experts and many more. Each judge analyses categories which are suited to their specialisms, ensuring all our entrants are judged fairly, and excellence is truly applauded. The process is stringent, as demonstrated by our Advanced Awards Trust Mark, awarded by the Independent Awards Standards Council. The judging process begins once the shortlist is unveiled in January.

Voting

The results of some categories at The Aesthetics Awards comprise 20% voting from the aesthetics community. Voting is IP address monitored, and each individual can only vote in each category once. Multiple votes under the same name and from the same email address will be discounted from the final total. Multiple voting from within Finalists' organisations will be monitored. Voting on behalf of customers is strictly prohibited and votes that are suspected to have been submitted this way will be discounted. Offering financial incentive or similar in exchange for votes is also strictly prohibited and action will be taken if this occurs.
