🙏@KevanJonesMP for again addressing the issues for patient safety it's much appreciated. This 🚫#risklogo would be a pause button, a chance for patients to do more research and ask questions not just about complications but on going financial commitment. #patientsafetyfirst
Today I called on the Government to introduce disclaimers on adverts for cosmetic procedures, similar to those displayed on gambling and alcohol advertisements.
I want to see that patients are aware of the inherent risks involved in these procedures.

Given the current Wild West the relentless illegal ads for POMs on social media, next to no redress or reporting of complications, no requirement to be qualified or insured if your not a HCP, its about as out of control as it gets! Licencing can't come soon enough. @Jeremy_Hunt
