Each year, we proudly host the IAAFA Aesthetic Awards Ceremony – a prestigious evening dedicated to recognising the very best in the Facial Aesthetics industry.
Founded by Professor Khanna, the awards were created as a heartfelt way to give back to the practitioners who go above and beyond – not only showcasing exceptional skill and artistry, but also championing patient safety and inspiring public trust.
It's a celebration of clinical excellence, integrity, and the people shaping the future of our industry!

Why enter the IAAFA Awards?
Judging is based on clinical skills
We can all write about what makes us the best practitioner or why we should win, but unlike other awards ceremonies in the industry, the IAAFA Awards are judged based on your clinical cases. Awarding the clinician that submits the best clinical case is the fairest way to determine the winner of each category.
Anonymous Judging
The IAAFA Awards are judged completely anonymously, so you can rest assured there is no bias. Submitted entries are completely anonymised before they are sent to our judges, and none of the judges know who the actual winner is until the night of the ceremony.
Expert Judges
The judges, selected each year by Prof Khanna, are highly-respected clinicians within the industry and have been chosen based on their excellent attention-to-detail and clinical skills. They will be able to make a sound judgement based on the patient's history & journey, techniques used and results produced.
Recognition & Achievement
Winning an award is much more than just a trophy and applause. It's a sign of your hard work and talent and gives you the recognition you deserve with a life-long accolade.
Build Your Confidence
Winning an IAAFA award is not only a life-long accolade, it's a reminder to yourself of your extraordinary talent and skill amongst thousands of practitioners in a competitive industry.
Reinforce Your Reputation
Winning or even just being shortlisted for an award is a strong indicator of your trustworthiness and expertise. For existing patients, it validates their choice of being with you, and new patients will want to visit a practice that wins awards.
Celebrate Your Success in Style
Winning an award is great excuse to celebrate. Our Charity Ball tickets include unlimited drinks all night, so you can rest assured you will be ready to party once your name is announced!
"Award Winning Practitioner"
Being able to call yourself an Award Winning practitioner is a sign of quality and a great way to differentiate yourself from other practices.
