Undercover crackdown on beauty clinics and Botox 'in backstreets'
A WELSH skin specialist has welcomed a crackdown on beauty clinics after evidence emerged that patients are being disfigured by rogue operators. Unlicensed treatments that can harm the health of those seeking a youthful look include laser therapy, Botox injections and anti-wrinkle skin fillers. The Healthcare Commission now plans to use covert surveillance to monitor thousands of unregistered clinics using lasers and intense pulsed lights to remove facial hair and skin blemishes. So-called "mystery shoppers" will check whether the clinics are trading unlawfully by offering services without any official checks on safety standards. Offenders could be prosecuted if they fail to register after warnings. The commission is to produce a leaflet for people considering cosmetic surgery to help them reduce risks.
