Private healthcare: regulation, patient safety and the future

Posted on:

Cosmetic procedures, carried out to improve how people look, are becoming increasingly popular. As the number of people opting for lip fillers, Botox injections, chemical peels and nose jobs increases, concerns over safety for those receiving treatments, as well as the qualifications and experience of those giving them, have grown.

Join us as we discuss the importance of regulating private healthcare and what the future of this sector might look like with our very special guests – Head of Service Review, Kevin Freeman-Ferguson, as well as Jackie Partridge and Linda Strachan, who run their own clinics and belong to the British Association of Cosmetic Nurses. We are also joined by Natalie Graham, who shares her own experience of cosmetic procedures and shares her insights on what you should look out for if booking a procedure for yourself.
