Crackdown on 'cowboy' cosmetic ops

The Journal

August 07, 2025

MINISTERS have announced plans to cut down on “cowboy” cosmetic procedures by introducing new restrictions on who can access and provide treatments.

Officials said that people have been left “maimed” by beauty procedures, with some deaths linked to poor care.

The Department of Health and Social Care said steps will be taken to protect people from “rogue operators” with no medical training who often provide “invasive” procedures in homes, hotels and popup clinics.

The move will also reduce the cost imposed upon the NHS to fix botched procedures, DHSC added.

The proposals include only allowing health workers who are “suitably qualified” to be able to deliver risky procedures such as Brazilian butt lifts.
