British Cosmetic and Beauty Treatments Industry
Cosmetic beauty treatments including Botox and dermal fillers form a large part of
the billion pound British cosmetic and beauty treatments industry, accounting for £225m
in sales in 2007. By comparison, plastic surgery accounts for £536m per year. Other
popular beauty treatments in the UK include tattoo removal, mole removal, laser hair removal
and cellulite treatments, including Endermologie.
As with all medical treatments there are certain risks associated with
these procedures so patients are advised to talk to their own doctor before
booking any treatments. There are a growing number of beauty clinic reviews
available here on WhatClinic.com to help you choose where to undergo treatment.
The British Association of Cosmetic Doctors (BACD)
and British Association of Beauty Therapy and Cosmetology
(BABTAC) represent doctors, beauticians and therapists
working in field, but membership is not mandatory.
