It's now only legal due to the change in regulations in the last few weeks to actually have the prescriber able to physically see the person's wrinkles ie be in the same room. Only doctors, dentists and some nurses who are able to prescribe are able to do this.

Absolutely, how long will it take for all prescribers to be told this, but at the end of the day it would be the therapist or non prescribing nurse breaking the law not the person prescribing!
