1. Membership and Conference Attendance Requirements
As an educational provider, the International Academy of Advanced Facial Aesthetics (IAAFA) is committed to promoting and maintaining the highest professional standards within the facial aesthetics industry. Members are therefore required to remain up to date with current industry standards, regulatory developments, policies, treatments, and continuing professional development (CPD) requirements.
Attendance at the IAAFA Conference is a minimum requirement of membership and must be fulfilled at least once every two (2) years. This ensures that members remain appropriately informed of new developments, including any regulatory updates. Failure to meet this minimum attendance requirement will be deemed a breach of IAAFA membership standards and will result in revocation of membership.
Members whose membership has been revoked for this reason may apply to re-join IAAFA, subject to payment of a £300 surcharge in addition to the applicable annual membership fee.
2. Conference Cancellation Policy
A minimum of thirty (30) days’ written notice is required to cancel a conference booking. Cancellations must be submitted by email only to: support@drbobkhanna.com.
Failure to attend the conference, or failure to provide the required notice period, will result in a £99 charge. Non-payment of this charge, or repeated failure to comply with this policy, may jeopardise IAAFA membership and may result in the immediate termination of Faculty membership, except where non-attendance is due to circumstances beyond the member’s reasonable control (“force majeure”).
3. Conduct and Ethical Standards
IAAFA reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to review, suspend, or revoke membership where a member is deemed to have acted unethically, unprofessionally, or inappropriately within the facial aesthetics and/or medical field, or in a manner that may bring IAAFA into disrepute, including conduct within their personal life.
4. Membership Fees and Payment Method
All membership fees and any applicable charges are collected by Direct Debit. By applying for and maintaining IAAFA membership, members authorise IAAFA to collect all membership fees via Direct Debit in accordance with the agreed payment schedule. The IAAFA Team will contact you upon submission of this application form to set up your direct debit. This is usually done via a secure online payment link.
It is the member’s responsibility to ensure that valid and up-to-date Direct Debit details are maintained at all times. Failure to make payment, including failed or cancelled Direct Debit payments, may result in the suspension or revocation of membership until all outstanding amounts have been settled.
IAAFA reserves the right to recover any unpaid fees and to take appropriate action in the event of persistent non-payment.
5. Amendments to Terms and Conditions
These terms and conditions are subject to change at any time. IAAFA will take reasonable steps to notify members of any amendments and to keep members informed accordingly.
