Registered medical practitioners currently working in aesthetic medicine who hold a fellowship with a recognised aesthetic medicine college.

To be eligible, candidates must:

1. Hold current AHPRA registration without conditions (must be maintained during membership).
2. Maintain valid MDO insurance appropriate to their scope of aesthetic practice.
3. Have a minimum of three years of experience in aesthetic medicine.
4. Demonstrate current fellowship with a comparable aesthetic medicine college (e.g. CPCA, ACCSM, NZCAM, or international equivalents such as AAAM, BMC, or EFAMS-recognised programs).
5. Be actively practising in cosmetic/aesthetic medicine.
   
   

Additional eligibility (as determined by the ACAM Board):

• Past or present holders of high office in a recognised college or academy.
• Individuals who have made a significant contribution to ACAM or the aesthetic medicine field.
• ACAM reserves the right to award Fellowship in exceptional circumstances, even if all criteria are not met.
  
  

Important notes:

• Fellowships such as RACGP and ACRRM are not recognised for equivalence.
• Practitioners whose experience is mainly in non-cosmetic areas (e.g. skin cancer, general practice) or whose education is unclear may be invited to complete Pathway I or II instead.
• Applicants without any completed fellowship are not eligible for the Equivalence Pathway.
