Government response to cosmetic treatment report “too little, too late”

Published: 13 Feb 2014

The Government’s response to Sir Bruce Keogh’s recommendations for overhauling the cosmetic treatment industry is welcome as far as it goes, but overall is “”too little, too late”.  We have had to advise and support people who have been harmed by sub-standard cosmetic treatment, and submitted evidence to Sir Bruce’s review.

Whilst the Government has accepted the vast majority of Sir Bruce’s report “in principle”, it has not committed to full regulation of the industry or ensuring appropriate avenues for redress for patients who have been harmed.  For full Press Release click here.
