Recommendation
The Government should review the need for the NHS to systematically record data on complications arising from cosmetic procedures performed abroad. Publishing such data in an annual release would enable a comprehensive assessment of the financial impact on the NHS and provide robust evidence to better inform and educate the public about the risks associated with cosmetic tourism. Where possible, the data set could include details of the clinic or practitioner that performed the original procedure to help further protect UK nationals. (Recommendation, Paragraph 95) 47
