Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department plans to collect data on the costs of aftercare to the NHS, for patients who report adverse effects following (a) aesthetic and (b) cosmetic procedures.

We have no current plans to do so. However, as part of the introduction of a licensing scheme for non-surgical cosmetic procedures in England, the Department will work with stakeholders to collate data and gather evidence on the incidence of consumers seeking treatment through the National Health Service for complications following private cosmetic procedures.
